On the understanding and feasibility of “Breakthrough” Osmosis (2019)
Journal Article
Wu, J. J., & Field, R. W. (2019). On the understanding and feasibility of “Breakthrough” Osmosis. Scientific Reports, 9(1), Article 16464. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-53417-6

Osmosis is the movement of solvent across a permselective membrane induced by a solute-concentration gradient. Now in ‘Forward Osmosis’ it is empirically observed that the diffusion of the solute is counter to that of the solvent i.e. there is so-cal...

Stochastic model reduction for polynomial chaos expansion of acoustic waves using proper orthogonal decomposition (2019)
Journal Article
El Moçayd, N., Shadi Mohamed, M., Ouazar, D., & Seaid, M. (2020). Stochastic model reduction for polynomial chaos expansion of acoustic waves using proper orthogonal decomposition. Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 195, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ress.2019.106733

We propose a non-intrusive stochastic model reduction method for polynomial chaos representation of acoustic problems using proper orthogonal decomposition. The random wavenumber in the well-established Helmholtz equation is approximated via the poly...

Compressed Sensing Method for Health Monitoring of Pipelines Based on Guided Wave Inspection (2019)
Journal Article
Wang, Z., Huang, S., Wang, S., Zhuang, S., Wang, Q., & Zhao, W. (2020). Compressed Sensing Method for Health Monitoring of Pipelines Based on Guided Wave Inspection. IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 69(7), 4722-4731. https://doi.org/10.1109/tim.2019.2951891

The pipeline in-service needs to be inspected in a certain period to master its structural health status. An ultrasonic guided wave, which can propagate along pipelines with less energy loss, provides an efficient method for long-term in situ inspect...

Modelling the Effects of Reliability and Maintenance on Levelised Cost of Wind Energy (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Dao, C. D., Kazemtabrizi, B., & Crabtree, C. J. (2019, December). Modelling the Effects of Reliability and Maintenance on Levelised Cost of Wind Energy. Presented at ASME Turbo Expo 2019, Phoenix, AZ, USA

Levelised cost of energy is an important measure to evaluate the success of a wind energy project. It includes all the capital and operational expenditures of a wind turbine over its lifetime based on the expected power generated. In the literature,...

Demonstrated for the first time over 15 years... Read More about Organic Light‐Emitting Transistors: Advances and Perspectives.

AMPLE: A Material Point Learning Environment (2019)
Journal Article
Coombs, W., & Augarde, C. (2020). AMPLE: A Material Point Learning Environment. Advances in Engineering Software, 139, Article 102748. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.advengsoft.2019.102748

The Material Point Method is a computational tool ideally suited to modelling solid mechanics problems involving large deformations where conventional mesh-based methods struggle. Explicit and implicit formulations are available, but for both the lea... Read More about AMPLE: A Material Point Learning Environment.

Security-constrained day-ahead operational planning for flexible hybrid AC/DC distribution networks (2019)
Journal Article
Asrul Ibrahim, A., Kazemtabrizi, B., & Renedo, J. (2019). Security-constrained day-ahead operational planning for flexible hybrid AC/DC distribution networks. Applied Sciences, 9(21), Article 4685. https://doi.org/10.3390/app9214685

A new active network management framework is presented based on a multi-period optimal power flow problem that is bounded by security constraints at the distribution level for upholding the security of supply. This can be achieved through active enga... Read More about Security-constrained day-ahead operational planning for flexible hybrid AC/DC distribution networks.
