Claiming deservingness: the durability of social security claimant discourses during the Covid-19 pandemic (2025)
Journal Article

The Covid-19 pandemic created extraordinary conditions for social protection systems globally, with both material and discursive implications. In the UK, these unprecedented circumstances led to an influx of (first time) social security claims, expec...

Derivation of experimental debonding outputs for FRP-strengthened concrete samples through a fracture energy-based closed form approach (2025)
Journal Article

Numerous bond-slip models have been proposed in the literature to elaborate on the behaviour between concrete and FRP. However, in most of these bond-slip models, the interfacial debonding fracture energy of the bond is not explicit. Furthermore, the...

Mathematical Models for predicting CO2 Density and Viscosity for Enhanced Gas Recovery and Carbon Sequestration (2025)
Journal Article

There is limited work on mathematical correlations in place for predicting density and viscosity of supercritical carbon-dioxide (CO2), necessary for Enhanced Gas Recovery-Carbon Sequestration (EGR-CS) operations. In this work, three categories of ma... Read More about Mathematical Models for predicting CO2 Density and Viscosity for Enhanced Gas Recovery and Carbon Sequestration.
