Morphodynamic simulation of sediment deposition patterns on a recently stripped bedrock anastomosed channel (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Milan, D., Heritage, G., Entwistle, N., & Tooth, S. Morphodynamic simulation of sediment deposition patterns on a recently stripped bedrock anastomosed channel. Presented at IAHS Scientific Assembly 2017, Port Elizabeth, South Africa

Some mixed bedrock-alluvial dryland rivers are known to undergo cycles of alluvial building during low flow periods, punctuated by stripping events during rare high magnitude flows. We focus on the Olifants River, Kruger National Park, South Africa,... Read More about Morphodynamic simulation of sediment deposition patterns on a recently stripped bedrock anastomosed channel.

A Study of Automatic Allocation of Automotive Safety Requirements in Two Modes: Components and Failure Modes (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Parker, D., Godof, A., Papadopoulos, Y., & Saintis, L. (2018, April). A Study of Automatic Allocation of Automotive Safety Requirements in Two Modes: Components and Failure Modes. Presented at SAE Technical Papers

ISO 26262 describes a safety engineering approach in which the safety of a system is considered from the early stages of design through a process of elicitation and allocation of system safety requirements. These are expressed as automotive safety in... Read More about A Study of Automatic Allocation of Automotive Safety Requirements in Two Modes: Components and Failure Modes.
