Assessing the Tribological Performance of Sanitary Pads (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fadele, A., & Crossland, S. (2024, September). Assessing the Tribological Performance of Sanitary Pads. Presented at SimBio-M 2024, Online

The impact of tribological performance on comfort and user satisfaction in material-skin interactions is an established field of study. Work in this field has translated to the investigation of incontinence products, but the performance of sanitary p... Read More about Assessing the Tribological Performance of Sanitary Pads.

Advanced Wound Care: Working towards standardised test platforms for novel therapies (2024)
Thesis
Hill, C. A. (2024). Advanced Wound Care: Working towards standardised test platforms for novel therapies. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4927712

There used to be limited knowledge on how wounds heal in response to clinical treatments, therefore therapies were often ineffective, causing a need to heal the wounds that failed to respond to treatment (Gregor et al., 2008; Huang et al., 2014). Dev... Read More about Advanced Wound Care: Working towards standardised test platforms for novel therapies.

Numerical analysis of transient thermal contrast on the surface of women’s breasts during recovery from contact cooling (2024)
Thesis
Amri, A. (2024). Numerical analysis of transient thermal contrast on the surface of women’s breasts during recovery from contact cooling. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4927492

The Transmission Line Matrix (TLM) method is used to solve numerically a heat transfer model for the woman’s breast and predict the tumour-induced thermal contrast on its surface during a breast thermography exam. This imaging modality is beset with... Read More about Numerical analysis of transient thermal contrast on the surface of women’s breasts during recovery from contact cooling.

A cross sectional pilot study utilising STrain Analysis and Mapping of the Plantar Surface (STAMPS) to measure plantar load characteristics within a healthy population (2024)
Journal Article
Jones, A. D., Crossland, S., Nixon, J. E., Siddle, H. J., Culmer, P. R., & Russell, D. A. (2024). A cross sectional pilot study utilising STrain Analysis and Mapping of the Plantar Surface (STAMPS) to measure plantar load characteristics within a healthy population. Gait and Posture, 113, 246-251. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2024.06.018

Background: No in-shoe systems, measuring both components of plantar load (plantar pressure and shear stress) are available for use in patients with diabetes. The STAMPS (STrain Analysis and Mapping of the Plantar Surface) system utilises digital ima...

Incorporating pathological gait into patient-specific finite element models of the haemophilic ankle (2024)
Journal Article
Talbott, H. G., Wilkins, R. A., Brockett, C. L., & Mengoni, M. (2024). Incorporating pathological gait into patient-specific finite element models of the haemophilic ankle. Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10237-024-01857-z

Haemarthrosis is an inherent clinical feature of haemophilia, a disease characterised by an absence or reduction in clotting proteins. Patients with severe haemophilia experience joint bleeding leading to blood-induced ankle arthropathy (haemarthropa...

In Silico and invitro modelling of chronic wounds to improve our understanding of wound biomechanics and to test novel medical devices (2024)
Thesis
Hendon, A. C. In Silico and invitro modelling of chronic wounds to improve our understanding of wound biomechanics and to test novel medical devices. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4703110

Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a widely used system that aids the healing of chronic wounds through the application of sub-atmospheric pressure. The effectiveness of this method is widely recognised, however the mechanisms behind this are...

M3D-BIO - Microfluidics-Enabled 3D Printing for Biofabrication (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Moetazedian, A., Candeo, A., Bassi, A., Cox, L. R., Grover, L. M., & Poologasundarampillai, G. (2023, June). M3D-BIO - Microfluidics-Enabled 3D Printing for Biofabrication. Presented at 2nd International Conference on Medical Devices: Materials, Mechanics and Manufacturing (ICMD3M 2023), Corfu, Greece

Microfluidics market is the fastest growing research area in the world, and they have shown much promise in biofabrication and 3D bioprinting of tissues and organs. However, microfluidics is conventionally produced using drawn-out and expensive litho... Read More about M3D-BIO - Microfluidics-Enabled 3D Printing for Biofabrication.

Bioartificial scaffolds fabrication and their use for in vitro testing of wound healing devices (2023)
Thesis
Mandolini, N. Bioartificial scaffolds fabrication and their use for in vitro testing of wound healing devices. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4386661

In the last decades Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) has shown its efficacy in wound healing, applying continuous or intermittent subatmospheric pressure to the wound surface by means of dressing systems. While there is general consen... Read More about Bioartificial scaffolds fabrication and their use for in vitro testing of wound healing devices.

Airflow rates and breathlessness recovery from submaximal exercise in healthy adults: prospective, randomised, cross-over study (2023)
Journal Article
Brew, A., O'Beirne, S., Johnson, M. J., Ramsenthaler, C., Watson, P., Rubini, P. A., Fagan, M. J., Swan, F., & Simpson, A. (online). Airflow rates and breathlessness recovery from submaximal exercise in healthy adults: prospective, randomised, cross-over study. BMJ supportive & palliative care, https://doi.org/10.1136/spcare-2023-004309

Objectives: Facial airflow from a hand-held fan may reduce breathlessness severity and hasten postexertion recovery. Data from randomised controlled trials are limited and the optimal airflow speed remains unknown. We aimed to determine the effect of...
