On the constitutive modeling of dual-phase steels at finite strains: a generalized plasticity based approach (2015)
Conference Proceeding

In this work we propose a general theoretic framework for the derivation of constitutive equations for dual-phase steels, undergoing continuum finite deformation. The proposed framework is based on the generalized plasticity theory and comprises the...

Computational studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular section in turbulent flow (2015)
Conference Proceeding

This paper presents a numerical method based on a LES approach to modelling the unsteady flow around and the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a 5:1 rectangular cylinder in the smooth and turbulent flow. A fluid-structure interaction algorithm was al... Read More about Computational studies of pressure distribution around a 5:1 rectangular section in turbulent flow.

Indoor positioning technology assessment using analytic hierarchy process for pedestrian navigation services (2015)
Conference Proceeding

Indoor positioning is one of the biggest challenges of many Location Based Services (LBS), especially if the target users are pedestrians, who spend most of their time in roofed areas such as houses, offices, airports, shopping centres and in general...

Velocity measurements in the vicinity of the exit and inlet of a spiral bevel gear shroud (2015)
Conference Proceeding

In many aeroengines the accessory power offtake is achieved using a spiral bevel gear set running off one of the main shafts. The crown and bevel gears are housed in an internal gearbox. Over the past few years the Nottingham University Technology Ce... Read More about Velocity measurements in the vicinity of the exit and inlet of a spiral bevel gear shroud.

Evaluating GNSS integrity augmentation techniques for UAS sense-and-avoid (2015)
Conference Proceeding

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) far exceed the navigation accuracies provided by other state-of-the-art sensors for aerospace applications. This can support the development of low-cost and high performance navigation and guidance architect... Read More about Evaluating GNSS integrity augmentation techniques for UAS sense-and-avoid.

Assessing avionics-based GNSS integrity augmentation performance in UAS mission- and safety-critical tasks (2015)
Conference Proceeding

The integration of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) integrity augmentation functionalities in Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) has the potential to provide an integrity-augmented Sense-and-Avoid (SAA) solution suitable for cooperative and non-c...

Nano-hardness and microstructure of selective laser melted AlSi10Mg scan tracks (2015)
Conference Proceeding

Selective laser melting (SLM) of aluminium alloys faces more challenges than other ongoing alloys such as stainless steels and titanium alloys because of the material’s properties. It is important to study single scan tracks if high density large par... Read More about Nano-hardness and microstructure of selective laser melted AlSi10Mg scan tracks.

Avionics-based GNSS integrity augmentation performance in a jamming environment (2015)
Conference Proceeding

Intentional and unintentional radiofrequency interference (i.e., jamming) can result in degraded navigation accuracy or complete loss of the GNSS signal tracking. Jammers can be classified into three broad categories: Narrowband Jammers (NBJ), Spread... Read More about Avionics-based GNSS integrity augmentation performance in a jamming environment.

Assessing GNSS integrity augmentation techniques in UAV sense-and-avoid architectures (2015)
Conference Proceeding

The integration of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) integrity augmentation functionalities in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) Sense-and-Avoid (SAA) architectures has the potential to provide an integrity-augmented SAA solutiThe integration of...

Control of a hybrid modular multilevel converter during grid voltage unbalance (2015)
Conference Proceeding

The recently proposed parallel hybrid modular multilevel converter is considered to be a low loss, low component count converter with soft switching capability of the ‘main’ bridge. The converter has similar advantages to other emerging modular multi... Read More about Control of a hybrid modular multilevel converter during grid voltage unbalance.
