Journal Article
Taormina, B., Bald, J., Want, A., Thouzeau, G., Lejart, M., Desroy, N., & Carlier, A. (2018). A review of potential impacts of submarine power cables on the marine environment: Knowledge gaps, recommendations and future directions. Renewable & sustainable energy reviews, 96, 380--391. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rser.2018.07.026

Submarine power cables (SPC) have been in use since the mid-19th century, but environmental concerns about them are much more recent. With the development of marine renewable energy technologies, it is vital to understand their potential impacts. The...

Preliminary performance study of a high-temperature parabolic trough solar evacuated receiver with an inner transparent radiation shield (2018)
Journal Article
Wang, Q., Yang, H., Hu, M., Huang, X., Li, J., & Pei, G. (2018). Preliminary performance study of a high-temperature parabolic trough solar evacuated receiver with an inner transparent radiation shield. Solar Energy, 173, 640-650. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solener.2018.07.065

Solar evacuated receiver as a key part of parabolic trough collector (PTC) suffers considerable heat loss at high operating temperature, which exerts significantly negative effects on the overall performance of PTC system. Based on the fact of maldis... Read More about Preliminary performance study of a high-temperature parabolic trough solar evacuated receiver with an inner transparent radiation shield.

Development and assessment of integrating parabolic trough collectors with gas turbine trigeneration system for producing electricity, chilled water, and freshwater (2018)
Journal Article
Dabwan, Y. N., Gang, P., Li, J., Gao, G., & Feng, J. (2018). Development and assessment of integrating parabolic trough collectors with gas turbine trigeneration system for producing electricity, chilled water, and freshwater. Energy, 162, 364-379. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2018.07.211

The main objective of the present work is to investigate the possible modifications of a gas turbine trigeneration plant via integrating it with a parabolic trough collector (PTC) technology. This plant produces 45461 m3/day of freshwater and 2300 kg...

Investigation of variable aeration of monodisperse mixtures: implications for pyroclastic density currents (2018)
Journal Article
Smith, G. M., Williams, R., Rowley, P., & Parsons, D. R. (2018). Investigation of variable aeration of monodisperse mixtures: implications for pyroclastic density currents. Bulletin of volcanology, 80(8), Article 67. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00445-018-1241-1

The high mobility of dense pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) is commonly attributed to high gas pore pressures. However, the influence of spatial and temporal variations in pore pressure within PDCs has yet to be investigated. Theory suggests that...

© 2017 Elsevier Ltd The authors regret that a software error caused incorrect predictions for the effects of tidal turbines in Delft3D. The predictions without turbines are unaffected, as are those from the MIKE 3 model. The overall conclusions of th...

Remembering protest (2018)
Book Chapter
Griffin, C. J., & McDonagh, B. (2018). Remembering protest. In C. J. Griffin, & B. McDonagh (Eds.), Remembering Protest in Britain since 1500 : Memory, Materiality and the Landscape (1-23). Palgrave Macmillan. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-74243-4_1

This book is about protest and the multiple and contested ways it is remembered, about the work protest memories do and the uses of the past in the (historical) present. While several chapters speak to the present en passant, it is not a study of the... Read More about Remembering protest.

Landscape, memory and protest in the midlands rising of 1607 (2018)
Book Chapter

In the early summer of 1607, a large group of perhaps as many as a thousand men, women and children assembled at Newton (Northamptonshire) and began digging up hedges. The hedges surrounded enclosures recently put in place by the local landowner, Tho... Read More about Landscape, memory and protest in the midlands rising of 1607.
