Local-photon model of the momentum of light (2025)
Journal Article
Waite, G., Hodgson, D., Lang, B., Alapatt, V., & Beige, A. (2025). Local-photon model of the momentum of light. Physical Review A, 111(2), Article 023703. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.111.023703

Recently we introduced a local photon approach for modeling the quantized electromagnetic field in position space. Using this approach, we define the momentum of light in this paper as in quantum mechanics as the generator for spatial translation. Af...

Body wave to surface wave conversion using tailored meta-structures (2025)
Journal Article
Fuentes-Domínguez, R., Smith, R. J., Jin, P., Simonelli, M., Gibbon, S., & Clark, M. (2025). Body wave to surface wave conversion using tailored meta-structures. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 603, Article 118989. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2025.118989

Elastic waves are important in many application areas. Their manipulation and coupling between different acoustic modes is important and presents a considerable challenge that offers to unlock the flexibility in wave transport required for efficient...

International Journal of Coal Geology, 300, Article 104708. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coal.2025.104708

This study examines the effect of high water pressure (up to 900 bar) on hydrocarbon generation from Type-I kerogen-rich source rocks and compares the results with previously observed effects on Type-II and Type-III kerogens. An immature Type-I oil s... Read More about The effect of high pressure on hydrocarbon generation from Type-I kerogen source rocks: Implications for petroleum system evolution.

A Holistic Analysis and Experimental Testing of a Passive Heat Path for Electric Motors Slots (2025)
Journal Article
Hebala, A., Connor, P. H., Nuzzo, S., Gerada, C., & Galea, M. (2025). A Holistic Analysis and Experimental Testing of a Passive Heat Path for Electric Motors Slots. IEEE Transactions on Transportation Electrification, 1-1. https://doi.org/10.1109/tte.2025.3537161

This paper presents a thorough and broad analysis of the passive slot heat path concept. Six heat path shapes are proposed and compared in terms of their combined thermal and electrical performance. Through an extensive search pool that covers a wide... Read More about A Holistic Analysis and Experimental Testing of a Passive Heat Path for Electric Motors Slots.

Characterization of damage in galling testing of austenitic stainless steel as a function of pressure and sliding distance (2025)
Journal Article
Kóti, D., Daure, J. L., Neate, N. C., Stewart, D. A., & Shipway, P. H. (2025). Characterization of damage in galling testing of austenitic stainless steel as a function of pressure and sliding distance. Wear, Article 205776. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wear.2025.205776+Get+rights+and+content

It is well known that stainless steel is prone to galling, and in previous work, we have demonstrated that the degree of damage following galling tests in such materials is a function of both contact pressure and sliding distance. However, it is not... Read More about Characterization of damage in galling testing of austenitic stainless steel as a function of pressure and sliding distance.

Development of a prototype bridge scour sensor exploiting vortex-induced vibrations (2025)
Journal Article
Campbell, K., Lydon, M., Taylor, S., Hamill, G., O'Higgins, C., Prendergast, L. J., O'Connor, A., & Nieuwland, R. (2025). Development of a prototype bridge scour sensor exploiting vortex-induced vibrations. Proceedings of the ICE - Bridge Engineering, https://doi.org/10.1680/jbren.23.00034

The ability to effectively manage the deterioration of a network-wide bridge stock condition from year to year is vital for the effective use of finite resources while maintaining public safety. The leading cause of bridge failures and deterioration... Read More about Development of a prototype bridge scour sensor exploiting vortex-induced vibrations.

On face value: a ghost driver field study investigating interactions between pedestrians and a driverless vehicle with anthropomorphic displays (2025)
Journal Article
Large, D. R., Harvey, C., Hallewell, M., Li, X., & Burnett, G. (2025). On face value: a ghost driver field study investigating interactions between pedestrians and a driverless vehicle with anthropomorphic displays. Ergonomics, https://doi.org/10.1080/00140139.2025.2454927

In a novel, on-road study, using a ‘Ghost Driver’ to emulate an automated vehicle (AV), we captured over 10 hours of video (n = 520) and 64 survey responses documenting the behaviour and attitudes of pedestrians in response to the AV. Three prototype... Read More about On face value: a ghost driver field study investigating interactions between pedestrians and a driverless vehicle with anthropomorphic displays.

Do Hands-On or Hands-Off Drivers Perform Better During a Level-2 Silent Failure? (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hussain, A., Large, D., & Harvey, C. (2025, April). Do Hands-On or Hands-Off Drivers Perform Better During a Level-2 Silent Failure?. Presented at Ergonomics & Human Factors 2025, Burton upon Trent, UK

In a driving context, a silent failure (SF) occurs when the automated vehicle system is not able to operate but does not recognise its reduced capacity. As a result, it does not request human intervention or alert the user to the failure; the human d... Read More about Do Hands-On or Hands-Off Drivers Perform Better During a Level-2 Silent Failure?.

Human-AI Decision-Making in Higher Education (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Findings from an online study and focus groups show that students and staff were receptive to AI decision-making in higher education, highlighting transparency and equitability. Even so, students expressed a desire for creative work to be seen by a ‘... Read More about Human-AI Decision-Making in Higher Education.

Developing Preliminary Heuristics for In-Vehicle Ambient Intelligence Systems (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pande, S., Harvey, C., & Large, D. (2025, April). Developing Preliminary Heuristics for In-Vehicle Ambient Intelligence Systems. Presented at Ergonomics & Human Factors 2025, Burton upon Trent, UK

This study aimed to develop heuristics for designing and evaluating in-vehicle Ambient Intelligence (AmI) systems. Utilising an expert focus group (n=3) and a user study (n=8), 15 preliminary heuristics were derived. These aim to ensure that in-vehic...
