Enhancement of wave energy absorption efficiency via geometry and power take-off damping tuning (2018)
Journal Article
Jin, S., Patton, R. J., & Guo, B. (2019). Enhancement of wave energy absorption efficiency via geometry and power take-off damping tuning. Energy, 169, 819-832. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2018.12.074

In this work a three dimensional computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model has been constructed based on a 1/50 scale heaving point absorber wave energy converter (PAWEC). The CFD model is validated first via wave tank tests and then is applied in this... Read More about Enhancement of wave energy absorption efficiency via geometry and power take-off damping tuning.

Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes (2018)
Thesis
Liu, X. Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223301

With continuous growth for more than 50 years, global plastics production increased to 336 million tonnes in 2016, and over 27 million tonnes of post-consumer plastic wastes were produced. Waste management is necessary to minimise the plastic waste i... Read More about Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes.

Estimating one-minute rain rate distributions in the Tropics from TRMM satellite data (October 2017) (2018)
Journal Article
Rimvin, G. R., Paulson, K. S., & Bellerby, T. (2018). Estimating one-minute rain rate distributions in the Tropics from TRMM satellite data (October 2017). IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 11(10), 3660-3667. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSTARS.2018.2869322

© 2008-2012 IEEE. Internationally recognized prognostic models of rain fade on terrestrial and Earth-space extremely high frequency (EHF) links rely fundamentally on distributions of 1-min rain rates. In Rec. ITU-R P.837-6, these distributions are es... Read More about Estimating one-minute rain rate distributions in the Tropics from TRMM satellite data (October 2017).

A comprehensive study of the effect of chemical impurities on selection and sizing of centrifugal machines for supercritical carbon dioxide transport pipelines (2018)
Journal Article
Okezue, C., & Kuvshinov, D. (2018). A comprehensive study of the effect of chemical impurities on selection and sizing of centrifugal machines for supercritical carbon dioxide transport pipelines. Applied energy, 230, 816-835. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2018.08.074

Compressors and booster pumps constitute the “heart” of the supercritical carbon dioxide transport pipeline network because they consume most of the required energy input. In other words, most of the operating expenditure for the transport pipeline g...

Development and applications of a smartphone-based mobile electroencephalography (EEG) system (2018)
Thesis
Bateson, A. D. Development and applications of a smartphone-based mobile electroencephalography (EEG) system. (Thesis). University of Hull and University of York. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4567418

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a clinical and research technique used to non-invasively acquire brain activity. EEG is performed using static systems in specialist laboratories where participant mobility is constrained. It is desirable to have EEG s...

Impacts of different demographic policies adopted by the government on the Chinese population dynamics (2018)
Thesis
Chen, Y. Impacts of different demographic policies adopted by the government on the Chinese population dynamics. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222694

This dissertation focuses on three demographic policies that Chinese government adopted after Eonomic reform in 1978: the one-child policy, the two-child policy, and the migration policy. In the first chapter, I employ regional and provincial level d... Read More about Impacts of different demographic policies adopted by the government on the Chinese population dynamics.

Validation of an algorithm to reveal the U wave in atrial fibrillation (2018)
Journal Article
Al-Karadi, M. S., Wilkinson, A. J., Caldwell, J., & Langley, P. (2018). Validation of an algorithm to reveal the U wave in atrial fibrillation. Scientific reports, 8(1), Article 11946. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-30493-8

Major cardiac organisations recommend U wave abnormalities should be reported during ECG interpretation. However, U waves cannot be measured in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) due to the obscuring fibrillatory wave. The aim was to validate a U...
