Numerical simulation of fracking in shale rocks: current state and future approaches (2016)
Journal Article
Hattori, G., Trevelyan, J., Augarde, C., Coombs, W., & Aplin, A. (2017). Numerical simulation of fracking in shale rocks: current state and future approaches. Archives of Computational Methods in Engineering, 24(2), 281-317. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11831-016-9169-0

Extracting gas from shale rocks is one of the current engineering challenges but offers the prospect of cheap gas. Part of the development of an effective engineering solution for shale gas extraction in the future will be the availability of reliabl...

Online optimization of casualty processing in major incident response: An experimental analysis (2016)
Journal Article
Wilson, D., Hawe, G., Coates, G., & Crouch, R. (2016). Online optimization of casualty processing in major incident response: An experimental analysis. European Journal of Operational Research, 252(1), 334-348. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2016.01.021

When designing an optimization model for use in mass casualty incident (MCI) response, the dynamic and uncertain nature of the problem environment poses a significant challenge. Many key problem parameters, such as the number of casualties to be proc... Read More about Online optimization of casualty processing in major incident response: An experimental analysis.

Measuring the disorder of vortex lattices in a Bose-Einstein condensate (2016)
Journal Article
Rakonjac, A., Marchant, A., Billam, T., Helm, J., Yu, M., Gardiner, S., & Cornish, S. (2016). Measuring the disorder of vortex lattices in a Bose-Einstein condensate. Physical Review A, 93(1), Article 013607. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.93.013607

We report observations of the formation and subsequent decay of a vortex lattice in a Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a hybrid optical-magnetic trap. Vortices are induced by rotating the anharmonic magnetic potential that provides confinement in... Read More about Measuring the disorder of vortex lattices in a Bose-Einstein condensate.

Beyond climate envelope projections: Roe deer survival and environmental change (2016)
Journal Article
Davis, M., Stephens, P., & Kjellander, P. (2016). Beyond climate envelope projections: Roe deer survival and environmental change. The Journal of Wildlife Management, 80(3), 452-464. https://doi.org/10.1002/jwmg.1029

Research on climate change impacts has focused on projecting changes in the geographic ranges of species, with less emphasis on the vital rates giving rise to species distributions. Managing ungulate populations under future climate change will requi... Read More about Beyond climate envelope projections: Roe deer survival and environmental change.

Superballistic center-of-mass motion in one-dimensional attractive Bose gases: Decoherence-induced Gaussian random walks in velocity space (2016)
Journal Article
Weiss, C., Cornish, S., Gardiner, S., & Breuer, H.-P. (2016). Superballistic center-of-mass motion in one-dimensional attractive Bose gases: Decoherence-induced Gaussian random walks in velocity space. Physical Review A, 93(1), Article 103605. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.93.013605

We show that the spreading of the center-of-mass density of ultracold attractively interacting bosons can become superballistic in the presence of decoherence, via one-, two-, and/or three-body losses. In the limit of weak decoherence, we analyticall...

How emotions stimulate people affected by cancer to use personalised health websites (2015)
Journal Article
Hadzidedic Bazdarevic, S., & Cristea, A. I. (2015). How emotions stimulate people affected by cancer to use personalised health websites. Knowledge management & e-learning: an international journal, 7(4), 658-676

This paper focuses on helping people affected by cancer – which is the leading cause of death worldwide - by identifying their personalisation needs for health websites. The aim is to identify a set of personalisation features that users prefer on th... Read More about How emotions stimulate people affected by cancer to use personalised health websites.
