Identification of particle-laden flow features from wavelet decomposition (2017)
Journal Article
Jackson, A. M., & Turnbull, B. (2017). Identification of particle-laden flow features from wavelet decomposition. Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 361, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physd.2017.09.009

A wavelet decomposition based technique is applied to air pressure data obtained from laboratory-scale powder snow avalanches. This technique is shown to be a powerful tool for identifying both repeatable and chaotic features at any frequency within...

Performance and durability tests of smart icephobic coatings to reduce ice adhesion (2017)
Journal Article
Janjua, Z. A., Turnbull, B., Choy, K.-L., Pandis, C., Liu, J., Hou, X., & Choi, K.-S. (2017). Performance and durability tests of smart icephobic coatings to reduce ice adhesion. Applied Surface Science, 407, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2017.02.206

The accretion of ice can damage applications ranging from power lines and shipping decks; to wind turbines and rail infrastructure. In particular on aircraft, it can change aerodynamic characteristics, greatly affecting the flight safety. Commercial...
