Effect of perceived dominance and pleasantness on the total noise annoyance responses evoked by augmenting road traffic noise with birdsong/stream sound (2023)
Journal Article
Chau, C. K., Leung, T. M., Chung, W. K., & Tang, S. K. (2023). Effect of perceived dominance and pleasantness on the total noise annoyance responses evoked by augmenting road traffic noise with birdsong/stream sound. Applied acoustics. Acoustique appliqué. Angewandte Akustik, 213, Article 109650. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2023.109650

Earlier studies suggested that sound preferences or soundscape quality could be improved by augmenting the acoustic environment originally dominated by road traffic noise by birdsong or water sound. However, little has been known on whether and how t...

Applying the discrete element method (DEM) in soil mechanics can provide abundant information at the particle-scale and facilitates illustration of the macro-mechanical behaviour of soils based on the inter-particle mechanisms. The triaxial test is o... Read More about Simulation of the deformable lateral boundaries in biaxial test using DEM.

A bistable helical structure based on composite tape-springs (2023)
Journal Article
Xu, B., Wang, B., Fancey, K. S., Zhong, S., Zhao, C., & Chen, X. (2023). A bistable helical structure based on composite tape-springs. Composites Communications, 43, Article 101723. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coco.2023.101723

Conventional twistable structures use discrete parts articulated around a number of linkages. These allow only a limited degree of twisting angle, are low in storage ratio, heavy and complex in morphing mechanisms. Double-helix structures are commonl...

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...

Modelling of sorption-enhanced steam reforming (SE-SR) process in fluidised bed reactors for low-carbon hydrogen production: A review (2023)
Journal Article

Sorption-enhanced steam reforming (SE-SR) offers lower capital costs than conventional steam reforming with carbon capture, which arises from the compact makeup that allows reforming and CO2 capture to occur in a single reactor. However, the technolo... Read More about Modelling of sorption-enhanced steam reforming (SE-SR) process in fluidised bed reactors for low-carbon hydrogen production: A review.

Assessment of the mechanical role of cranial sutures in the mammalian skull: Computational biomechanical modelling of the rat skull (2023)

Journal of morphology, 284(3), Article e21555. https://doi.org/10.1002/jmor.21555

Cranial sutures are fibrocellular joints between the skull bones that are progressively replaced with bone throughout ontogeny, facilitating growth and cranial shape change. This transition from soft tissue to bone is reflected in the biomechanical p...
