Multidimensional Phononic Bandgaps in Three-Dimensional Lattices for Additive Manufacturing (2019)
Journal Article
Elmadih, W., Syam, W. P., Maskery, I., Chronopoulos, D., & Leach, R. (2019). Multidimensional Phononic Bandgaps in Three-Dimensional Lattices for Additive Manufacturing. Materials, 12(11), Article 1878. https://doi.org/10.3390/ma12111878

We report on numerical modelling of three-dimensional lattice structures designed to provide phononic bandgaps. The examined lattice structures rely on two distinct mechanisms for bandgap formation: the destructive interference of elastic waves and i...

In-situ icing and water condensation study on different topographical surfaces (2019)
Journal Article
Memon, H., Liu, J., Weston, N., Wang, J., De Focatiis, D., Choi, K.-S., & Hou, X. (2019). In-situ icing and water condensation study on different topographical surfaces. Cold Regions Science and Technology, 165, Article 102814. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coldregions.2019.102814

Icephobicity is intrinsically affected by rough asperities and the surface voids provide anchoring points for the ice. The anchor of ice is likely to form on the surface under high humidity conditions. In-situ water condensation and icing observation...
