Metaheuristic optimisation of sound absorption performance of multilayered porous materials (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ramamoorthy, V. T., Özcan, E., Parkes, A. J., Luc, J., & Bécot, F.-X. (2019, September). Metaheuristic optimisation of sound absorption performance of multilayered porous materials. Presented at 23rd International Congress on Acoustics (ICA 2019), Aachen, Germany

The optimization of multilayered-sound-packaging is a challenging task which involves searching the best/op-timal settings for a number of acoustic parameters. The search space size becomes too large to handle by brute force, as the number of those p...

Towards Optimal Design of Rainbow Metamaterials (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Meng, H., Chronopoulos, D., & Fabro, A. T. (2019, September). Towards Optimal Design of Rainbow Metamaterials. Presented at 14th International Conference on Vibration Problems, Hersonissos, Crete, Greece

Nonperiodic metamaterials can have better vibration attenuation than periodic metamaterials with properly designed resonator distributions. In this study, we propose optimal design routes for rainbow metamaterials. The rainbow metamaterials are nonpe... Read More about Towards Optimal Design of Rainbow Metamaterials.

Improved phosphate‐based glass fiber performance achieved through acid etch/polydopamine treatment (2019)
Journal Article
Parsons, A. J., Felfel, R. M., Wadge, M. D., & Grant, D. M. (2020). Improved phosphate‐based glass fiber performance achieved through acid etch/polydopamine treatment. International Journal of Applied Glass Science, 11(1), 35-45. https://doi.org/10.1111/ijag.13672

Phosphate based glass fibres (PGF) are of interest as reinforcements for degradable implants, but have seen limited application due to their rapid loss of strength when subjected to aqueous conditions. Previous studies have utilised heat treatments t... Read More about Improved phosphate‐based glass fiber performance achieved through acid etch/polydopamine treatment.
