Newly recognized turbidity current structure can explain prolonged flushing of submarine canyons. Science Advances, 3(10), Article e1700200. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.1700200

Seabed-hugging flows called turbidity currents are the volumetrically most important process transporting sediment across our planet and form its largest sediment accumulations. We seek to understand the internal structure and behavior of turbidity c... Read More about Newly recognized turbidity current structure can explain prolonged flushing of submarine canyons.

Wave-induced ripple development in mixed clay-sand substrates (2017)
Thesis
Wu, X. Wave-induced ripple development in mixed clay-sand substrates. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220909

Wave-induced ripples are significant tools in reconstructing a range of paleo-environments and in establishing predictors of sediment transport in modern estuarine, marine and coastal environments. Previous studies, however, have focused on the dynam... Read More about Wave-induced ripple development in mixed clay-sand substrates.

The Goto Islands in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan, contain three parallel channels that are suitable for tidal energy development and are the planned location for a tidal energy test centre. Energy extraction is added to a 3D numerical hydrodynamic mode... Read More about Tidal resource and interactions between multiple channels in the Goto Islands, Japan.

Input-variable sensitivity assessment for sediment transport relations (2017)
Journal Article
Fernández, R., & Garcia, M. H. (2017). Input-variable sensitivity assessment for sediment transport relations. Water Resources Research, 53(9), 8105-8119. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016wr020249

A methodology to assess input‐variable sensitivity for sediment transport relations is presented. The Mean Value First Order Second Moment Method (MVFOSM) is applied to two bed load transport equations showing that it may be used to rank all input va...

Bakema, & B. van Hoven (Eds.), Governing for Resilience in Vulnerable Places (92-115). Routledge. https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315103761

By focusing on developing a working definition of flood groups in England, and by analysing their governance arrangements, this chapter aims to shed light on their potential influence on community resilience to flooding. It discusses resilience in re... Read More about Flood Groups in England: Governance arrangements and contribution to flood resilience.

Thermodynamic comparison and dynamic simulation of direct and indirect solar organic Rankine cycle systems with PCM storage (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alvi, J. Z., Imran, M., Pei, G., Li, J., Gao, G., & Alvi, J. Thermodynamic comparison and dynamic simulation of direct and indirect solar organic Rankine cycle systems with PCM storage. Presented at 4th International Seminar on ORC Power Systems, Milan, Italy

A thermodynamic comparison between a novel direct solar ORC system (DSOS) and indirect solar ORC system (ISOS) is carried out in this study. A phase change material (PCM) heat storage unit is integrated with both systems to ensure the stability of po...
