Simulation based evaluation of time-variant loadings acting on tunnel linings during mechanized tunnel construction (2017)
Journal Article

In the design of machine driven tunnels, the loadings acting on the segmental lining are often adopted according to simplified assumptions, which improperly reflect the actual loading on the linings developing during the construction of a bored tunne...

Advanced diamond-reinforced metal matrix composites via cold spray: properties and deposition mechanism (2017)
Journal Article

Diamond-reinforced metal matrix composites (DMMC) have great potential for wear-resistance applications due to the superior hardness of the diamond component. Cold spray as an emerging coating technique is able to fabricate coatings or bulk materials...

Observations of quiet-time moderate midlatitude L-band scintillation in association with plasma bubbles (2017)
Journal Article

Observations of moderate night time amplitude scintillation on the GPS L1C/A signal were recorded at the midlatitude station of Nicosia, corresponding geographic latitude and longitude of 35.18˚N and 33.38˚E respectively, on a geomagnetically quiet d...

Neuroimaging biomarkers predict brain structural connectivity change in a mouse model of vascular cognitive impairment (2017)
Journal Article

Background and Purpose�Chronic hypoperfusion in the mouse brain has been suggested to mimic aspects of vascular cognitive impairment, such as white matter damage. Although this model has attracted attention, our group has struggled to generate a reli...

Healthcare benefits linked with Below Poverty Line registration in India: Observations from Maharashtra Anaemia Study (MAS) (2017)
Journal Article

A 2015 Lancet paper by Patel et al. on healthcare access in India comprehensively discussed national health programmes where some benefits are linked with the country’s Below Poverty Line (BPL) registration scheme. BPL registration aims to support po... Read More about Healthcare benefits linked with Below Poverty Line registration in India: Observations from Maharashtra Anaemia Study (MAS).

Physical and biological characteristics of multi drug resistance (MDR): an integral approach considering pH and drug resistance in cancer (2017)
Journal Article

The role of the Warburg effect in cancer remains to be elucidated with a resurgence in research efforts over the past decade. Why a cancer cell would prefer to use energy inefficient glycolysis, leading to an alteration of pH both inside and outside... Read More about Physical and biological characteristics of multi drug resistance (MDR): an integral approach considering pH and drug resistance in cancer.

‘Instead of fetching flowers, the youths brought in flakes of snow’: exploring extreme weather history through English parish registers (2017)
Journal Article

Parish registers provide organized, dated and located population data and as such, are routinely among the most frequently consulted documents within the holdings of county record offices and archives. Throughout history, extreme weather has had sign...

Image-based 3D canopy reconstruction to determine potential productivity in complex multi-species crop systems (2017)
Journal Article

Background and Aims: Intercropping systems contain two or more species simultaneously in close proximity. Due to contrasting features of the component crops, quantification of the light environment and photosynthetic productivity is extremely difficu...
