Synthesis and properties of self organising semiconducting and luminescent polymers and model compounds (2001)
Journal Article
Feast, W., Goldoni, F., Kilbinger, A., Meijer, E., Petty, M., & Schenning, A. (2001). Synthesis and properties of self organising semiconducting and luminescent polymers and model compounds. Macromolecular Symposia, 175, 151-158

Oligothiophene-PEO-block-co-polymers and related model compounds have been synthesised and characterised. In the polymers well-defined oligothiophene blocks (with from two to six alpha,alpha -linked thiophene sequences) were alternated with poly(ethy...

On Fully Practical Finite Element Approximations of Degenerate Cahn-Hilliard Systems (2001)
Journal Article
Barrett, J., Blowey, J., & Garcke, H. (2001). On Fully Practical Finite Element Approximations of Degenerate Cahn-Hilliard Systems. ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis, 35(4), 713-748. https://doi.org/10.1051/m2an%3A2001133

We consider a model for phase separation of a multi-component alloy with non-smooth free energy and a degenerate mobility matrix. In addition to showing well-posedness and stability bounds for our approximation, we prove convergence in one space dime...

The quantitative assessment of UHMWPE wear debris produced in hip simulator testing : the influence of head material and roughness, motion and loading (2001)
Journal Article
Elfick, A., Smith, S., Green, S., & Unsworth, A. (2001). The quantitative assessment of UHMWPE wear debris produced in hip simulator testing : the influence of head material and roughness, motion and loading. Wear, 249(5-6), 517-527. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0043-1648%2801%2900589-0

Biomaterial wear particles are known to provoke a foreign-body reaction when released from total joint prostheses. Considerable effort is being invested in the search for materials which, by wearing less, will release fewer particles. In this researc...

Uniting Bose-Einstein Condensates in Optical Resonators. (2001)
Journal Article
Jaksch, D., Gardiner, S., Schulze, K., Cirac, J., & Zoller, P. (2001). Uniting Bose-Einstein Condensates in Optical Resonators. Physical Review Letters, 86(21), 4733-4736. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.86.4733

The relative phase of two initially independent Bose-Einstein condensates can be laser cooled to unite the two condensates by putting them into a ring cavity and coupling them with an internal Josephson junction. First, we show that this phase coolin... Read More about Uniting Bose-Einstein Condensates in Optical Resonators..

Cavity-assisted quasiparticle damping in a Bose-Einstein condensate. (2001)
Journal Article
Gardiner, S., Gheri, K., & Zoller, P. (2001). Cavity-assisted quasiparticle damping in a Bose-Einstein condensate. Physical Review A, 63(5), https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.63.051603

We consider an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate held within an optical cavity and interacting with laser fields. We show how the interaction of the cavity mode with the condensate can cause energy due to excitations to be coupled to a lossy cavity mod...

Prediction of Turbomachinery Flow Physics from CFD - Review of Recent Computations of APPACET Test Cases (2001)
Journal Article
Gregory-Smith, D., & Crossland, S. (2001). Prediction of Turbomachinery Flow Physics from CFD - Review of Recent Computations of APPACET Test Cases. T.A.S.K. Quarterly, 5(4), 407-432

In order to maintain a competitive edge, the turbomachinery industry has to rely increasingly on design and analysis methods based on numerical simulation of flow. The European funded APPACET was set up to study the application of turbulence modellin...

An efficient pyridine- and oxadiazole-containing hole-blocking material far organic light-emitting diodes: Synthesis, crystal structure, and device performance (2001)
Journal Article
Wang, C., Jung, G., Hua, Y., Pearson, C., Bryce, M., Petty, M., …Howard, J. (2001). An efficient pyridine- and oxadiazole-containing hole-blocking material far organic light-emitting diodes: Synthesis, crystal structure, and device performance. Chemistry of Materials, 13(4), 1167-1173

In this paper, we focus on the synthesis and structure of the new bis(1,3,4-oxadiazole) system 2,5-bis[2-(4-tert- butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-5-yl]pyridine (PDPyDP). We have fabricated light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using poly[2-methoxy-5- (2-ethylhex...

Non-axisymmetric turbine end wall profiling (2001)
Journal Article
Gregory-Smith, D., Ingram, G., Jayaraman, P., Harvey, N., & Rose, M. (2001). Non-axisymmetric turbine end wall profiling. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy, 215(6), 721-734. https://doi.org/10.1243/0957650011539027

A design method for profiling the end wall to reduce secondary flow has been reported previously. A profile has been tested in the Durham Linear Cascade and the results confirmed the design method. This paper describes the design and testing of a sec... Read More about Non-axisymmetric turbine end wall profiling.
