The pharmacokinetics and toxicity of morning vs. evening tobramycin dosing for pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis: A randomised comparison (2015)
Journal Article
Smyth, A., Knox, A., Prayle, A., Jain, K., Touw, D., Koch, B., …Smyth, A. R. (2016). The pharmacokinetics and toxicity of morning vs. evening tobramycin dosing for pulmonary exacerbations of cystic fibrosis: A randomised comparison. Journal of Cystic Fibrosis, 15(4), 510-517. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcf.2015.07.012

Background: Circadian variation in renal toxicity of aminoglycosides has been demonstrated in animal and human studies. People with CF are frequently prescribed aminoglycosides. Altered pharmacokinetics of aminoglycosides are predictive of toxicity....

Robustness analysis and experimental validation of a fault detection and isolation method for the modular multilevel converter (2015)
Journal Article
Shao, S., Watson, A. J., Clare, J. C., & Wheeler, P. (2016). Robustness analysis and experimental validation of a fault detection and isolation method for the modular multilevel converter. IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 31(5), 3794-3805. https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEL.2015.2462717

This paper presents a fault detection and isolation (FDI) method for open-circuit faults of power semiconductor devices in a modular multilevel converter (MMC). The proposed FDI method is simple with only one sliding mode observer (SMO) equation and...

Multi-objective modulated Model Predictive Control for a multilevel solid state transformer (2015)
Journal Article
Tarisciotti, L., Zanchetta, P., Watson, A. J., Wheeler, P., Clare, J. C., & Bifaretti, S. (2015). Multi-objective modulated Model Predictive Control for a multilevel solid state transformer. IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 51(5), https://doi.org/10.1109/TIA.2015.2429113

Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control (FCS-MPC) offers many advantages over more traditional control techniques, such as the ability to avoid cascaded control loops, easy inclusion of constraint and fast transient response of the control system...
