Self-starting capability of a Darrieus turbine (2007)
Journal Article
Dominy, R., Lunt, P., Bickerdyke, A., & Dominy, J. (2007). Self-starting capability of a Darrieus turbine. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy, 221(1), 111-120. https://doi.org/10.1243/09576509jpe340

Darrieus-type vertical axis wind turbines have a number of potential advantages for small-scale and domestic applications. For such applications, the issues of cost and reliability are paramount and hence simplicity of design of the structure, the ge... Read More about Self-starting capability of a Darrieus turbine.

Artificial plasmonic materials for THz applications (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gallant, A., Levitt, J., Kaliteevski, M., Wood, D., Petty, M., Abram, R., Brand, S., Swift, G., Zeze, D., & Chamberlain, J. (2007, February). Artificial plasmonic materials for THz applications. Presented at Terahertz and Gigahertz Electronics and Photonics VI, San Jose, CA

This paper reports on the development of micromachined pillar arrays for the filtering of terahertz radiation. These pillar arrays are fabricated using ultraviolet based processing of thick SU8. This micromachining technique enables the array pattern... Read More about Artificial plasmonic materials for THz applications.

Polyurethane unicondylar knee prostheses: simulator wear tests and lubrication studies (2007)
Journal Article
Scholes, S., Unsworth, A., & Jones, E. (2007). Polyurethane unicondylar knee prostheses: simulator wear tests and lubrication studies. Physics in Medicine & Biology, 52(1), 197-212. https://doi.org/10.1088/0031-9155/52/1/013

Many materials are used as artificial joint bearing surfaces; these include conventional stainless steel or CoCrMo-on-ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), CoCrMo on itself and alumina-on-alumina. However, these joints have a limited lif... Read More about Polyurethane unicondylar knee prostheses: simulator wear tests and lubrication studies.

Bright matter-wave soliton collisions in a harmonic trap : regular and chaotic dynamics (2007)
Journal Article
Martin, A., Adams, C., & Gardiner, S. (2007). Bright matter-wave soliton collisions in a harmonic trap : regular and chaotic dynamics. Physical Review Letters, 98(2), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.98.020402

Collisions between bright solitary waves in the 1D Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a harmonic potential, which models a trapped atomic Bose-Einstein condensate, are investigated theoretically. A particle analogy for the solitary waves is formulated an... Read More about Bright matter-wave soliton collisions in a harmonic trap : regular and chaotic dynamics.

Automated Verification of Shape and Size Properties via Separation Logic (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Nguyen, H.-H., David, C., Qin, S., Chin, W.-N., Cook, B., & Podelski, A. (2007, January). Automated Verification of Shape and Size Properties via Separation Logic. Presented at Eighth International Conference on Verification, Model Checking and Abstract Interpretation (VMCAI 2007), Nice, France

Despite their popularity and importance, pointer-based programs remain a major challenge for program verification. In this paper, we propose an automated verification system that is concise, precise and expressive for ensuring the safety of pointer-b...
