The role of microstructural development in the hydrothermal corrosion of cast and HIPed Stellite 6 analogues in simulated PWR conditions (2019)
Journal Article
Karimi, G., Carrington, M., Thomas, J., Shipway, P., Stewart, D., & Hussain, T. (2019). The role of microstructural development in the hydrothermal corrosion of cast and HIPed Stellite 6 analogues in simulated PWR conditions. Corrosion Science, 159, Article 108141. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.corsci.2019.108141

The corrosion behaviour of cast and HIPed Stellite 6 analogue materials in PWR-simulating conditions was investigated. The cast alloy exhibited localised corrosion at the boundary between the matrix and the M7C3 carbides, with this being attributed t...

A low-friction graphene nanoplatelets film from suspension high velocity oxy-fuel thermal spray (2019)
Journal Article
Venturi, F., Rance, G. A., Thomas, J., & Hussain, T. (2019). A low-friction graphene nanoplatelets film from suspension high velocity oxy-fuel thermal spray. AIP Advances, 9(2), 025216. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5089021

The addition of graphene-based nanomaterials is known to improve the tribology properties of materials by lowering the coefficient of friction and reducing wear. The covering of small areas with thin graphene-based films is routinely carried out; how...

Challenges and opportunities in understanding dementia and delirium in the acute hospital (2017)
Journal Article
Jackson, T. A., Gladman, J. R., Harwood, R. H., MacLullich, A. M., Sampson, E. L., Sheehan, B., & Davis, D. H. (2017). Challenges and opportunities in understanding dementia and delirium in the acute hospital. PLoS Medicine, 14(3), Article e1002247. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.1002247

What is the problem? Dementia in general hospitals Dementia is very common in patients admitted to acute hospitals, affecting one in four patients, with 6% of people living with dementia being inpatients in acute hospitals at any given time [1,...

Probing deeper into the risks of slips, trips and falls for an ageing rail passenger population: applying a systems approach (2016)
Journal Article
Waterson, P. E., Kendrick, V. L., Ryan, B., Jun, T., & Haslam, R. A. (2016). Probing deeper into the risks of slips, trips and falls for an ageing rail passenger population: applying a systems approach. IET Intelligent Transport Systems, 10(1), 25-31. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-its.2015.0047

In this study, the authors report the findings from a study of the contributory factors leading to slips, trips and falls (STFs) amongst elderly passengers at train stations and how these are likely to change in the future over the medium to long ter...
