Stereo visualization of 3D trabecular bone structures produced by bone remodelling simulation (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Phillips, R., Grunchec, J. A., Ward, J. W., Fagan, M. J., Dobson, C. A., Langton, C. M., & Sisias, G. Stereo visualization of 3D trabecular bone structures produced by bone remodelling simulation

Adult human bone is constantly being renewed by a process known as remodelling. For cancellous bone this renewal process occurs at the interface between bone and marrow where bone is depleted by osteoclasts and rebuilt by osteoblasts. This remodellin...

The current opinion on the use of robots for landmine detection (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rajasekharan, S., & Kambhampati, C. The current opinion on the use of robots for landmine detection. Presented at 2003 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (Cat. No.03CH37422), Taipei, Taiwan, Taiwan

Anti-Personal landmines are a significant barrier to economic and social development in a number of countries. Several sensors have been developed but each one will probably have to find, if it exists, a specific area of applicability, determined by...

Preparation and applications in confectionery of co-crystalline sugar products and a novel hydrated form of sucrose (2003)
Thesis
Maulny, A. (2003). Preparation and applications in confectionery of co-crystalline sugar products and a novel hydrated form of sucrose. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215093

The formation of the solid crystalline phase of sugars plays an important role in many food products. The conventional crystallisation of sucrose gives solid, dense cubic crystals that have a limited surface area. On the other hand, co-crystallisatio...
