Lithological mapping of the Troodos ophiolite, Cyprus, using airborne LiDAR topographic data (2009)
Journal Article
Grebby, S., Cunningham, D., Naden, J., & Tansey, K. (2010). Lithological mapping of the Troodos ophiolite, Cyprus, using airborne LiDAR topographic data. Remote Sensing of Environment, 114(4), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2009.11.006

Traditional field-based lithological mapping can be a time-consuming, costly and challenging endeavour when large areas need to be investigated, where terrain is remote and difficult to access and where the geology is highly variable over short dista...

Wind turbine-energy storage control system for delivering constant demand power shared by DFIGs through droop characteristics (2009)
Conference Proceeding
Fazeli, M., Asher, G., Klumpner, C., Bozhko, S., Yao, L., & Bazargan, M. (2009). Wind turbine-energy storage control system for delivering constant demand power shared by DFIGs through droop characteristics. In 2009 13th European Conference on Power Electronics and Applications

This paper investigates embedding Energy Storage (ES) with multiple wind turbines in order to deliver to the grid a smooth and constant power as demanded by the system operator. The demand power is shared by DFIGs proportional to their ratings utiliz...

Fate of conjugated natural and synthetic steroid estrogens in crude sewage and activated sludge batch studies (2009)
Journal Article
Gomes, R. L., Scrimshaw, M. D., & Lester, J. N. (2009). Fate of conjugated natural and synthetic steroid estrogens in crude sewage and activated sludge batch studies. Environmental Science and Technology, 43(10), 3612–3618. https://doi.org/10.1021/es801952h

Steroids are excreted from the human body in the conjugated form but are present in sewage influent and effluent as the free steroid, the major source of estrogenic activity observed in water courses. The fate of sulfate and glucuronide conjugated st... Read More about Fate of conjugated natural and synthetic steroid estrogens in crude sewage and activated sludge batch studies.

Sediment resuspension and erosion by vortex rings (2009)
Journal Article
Munro, R. J., Bethke, N., & Dalziel, S. B. (in press). Sediment resuspension and erosion by vortex rings. Physics of Fluids, 21(4), https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3083318

Particle resuspension and erosion induced by a vortex ringinteracting with a sediment layer was investigated experimentally using flow visualization (particle image velocimetry), high-speed video, and a recently developed light attenuation method for...

Visualisation of the local electrochemical activity of thermally-sprayed anti-corrosion coatings using scanning electrochemical microscopy (2009)
Journal Article
Walsh, D., Li, L. E., Bakare, M., & Voisey, K. (2009). Visualisation of the local electrochemical activity of thermally-sprayed anti-corrosion coatings using scanning electrochemical microscopy. Electrochimica Acta, 54(20), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.electacta.2009.03.057

Scanning electrochemical microscopy was used to probe the local electrochemical activity of anti-corrosion coatings formed from Inconel 625, a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy commonly used in engineering applications. The coatings were formed using a high velocity ox...
