Journal Article
Hossain, K. M. Z., Felfel, R. M., Ogbilikana, P. S., Thakker, D., Grant, D. M., Scotchford, C., & Ahmed, I. (2018). Single solvent based film casting method for the production of porous polymer films. Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 303, https://doi.org/10.1002/mame.201700628

A single solvent based film casting process for fabricating porous polymer films was developed in this study. The porous film was produced by mixing concentrated polylactic acid/ chloroform solution (20 wt%) and fresh chloroform solvent followed by f...

Toward Investigation of External Oil Flow From a Journal Bearing in an Epicyclic Gearbox (2018)
Journal Article
Berthold, M., Morvan, H., Young, C., & Jefferson-Loveday, R. J. (2018). Toward Investigation of External Oil Flow From a Journal Bearing in an Epicyclic Gearbox. Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power, 140(6), 1-9. https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4038284

High loads and bearing life requirements make journal bearings the preferred choice for use in high power, planetary gearboxes in jet engines. With the planet gears rotating about their own axis and orbiting around the sun gear, centrifugal forces ge...

Progress towards a methodology for high throughput 3D reconstruction of soot nanoparticles via electron tomography (2018)
Journal Article
Haffner-Staton, E., La Rocca, A., & Fay, M. (2018). Progress towards a methodology for high throughput 3D reconstruction of soot nanoparticles via electron tomography. Journal of Microscopy, 270(3), 272-289. https://doi.org/10.1111/jmi.12680

The aim of this work is to make progress towards the development of 3D reconstruction as a legitimate alternative to traditional 2D characterisation of soot. Time constraints are the greatest opposition to its implementation, as currently reconstruct...

Effects of surface roughness on local friction and temperature distributions in a steel-on-steel fretting contact (2018)
Journal Article
Qin, W., Jin, X., Kirk, A., Shipway, P., & Sun, W. (2018). Effects of surface roughness on local friction and temperature distributions in a steel-on-steel fretting contact. Tribology International, 120, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.triboint.2018.01.016

It has generally been assumed that initial surface roughness has significant influences on local frictional shear stresses and flash temperatures in fretting contacts. However, since these hypotheses are difficult to directly measure, the frictional...
