Toward an Optimum Design of an Amorphous Silicon Photovoltaic/Thermal System: Simulation and Experiments (2023)
Journal Article
Ren, X., Li, J., Liu, W., Zhu, C., Pei, G., & Gong, L. (2023). Toward an Optimum Design of an Amorphous Silicon Photovoltaic/Thermal System: Simulation and Experiments. Journal of Thermal Science, 32(3), 947-964. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11630-023-1813-z

Amorphous silicon photovoltaic/thermal (a-Si-PV/T) technology is promising due to the low power temperature coefficient, thin-film property, thermal annealing effect of the solar cells, and high conversion efficiency in summer. The design of a-Si-PV/... Read More about Toward an Optimum Design of an Amorphous Silicon Photovoltaic/Thermal System: Simulation and Experiments.

Applying the ‘useable past’ to the protection of climate migrants : child displacement from Vietnam and Montserrat, 1975-2000 (2023)
Thesis
Fleury, S. Applying the ‘useable past’ to the protection of climate migrants : child displacement from Vietnam and Montserrat, 1975-2000. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4311824

This study uses an eco-global criminological approach to understanding how children may migrate in the future as a result of environmental change, including climate change, and the human rights abuses they may face without adequate protections. It an... Read More about Applying the ‘useable past’ to the protection of climate migrants : child displacement from Vietnam and Montserrat, 1975-2000.

Inadequacy of fluvial energetics for describing gravity current autosuspension (2023)
Journal Article
Fukuda, S., de Vet, M. G., Skevington, E. W., Bastianon, E., Fernández, R., Wu, X., McCaffrey, W. D., Naruse, H., Parsons, D. R., & Dorrell, R. M. (2023).

Gravity currents, such as sediment-laden turbidity currents, are ubiquitous natural flows that are driven by a density difference. Turbidity currents have provided vital motivation to advance understanding of this class of flows because their enigmat...
