Computation of non-similar flow of a magnetic pseudoplastic nanofluid over a circular cylinder with variable thermophysical properties and radiative flux (2020)
Journal Article
Beg, O., Basha, H., Sivaraj, R., & Prasad, V. (2021). Computation of non-similar flow of a magnetic pseudoplastic nanofluid over a circular cylinder with variable thermophysical properties and radiative flux. International Journal of Numerical Methods for Heat and Fluid Flow, 31(5), 1475-1519. https://doi.org/10.1108/HFF-04-2020-0236

Generally, in computational thermofluid dynamics, the thermophysical properties of flu- ids (e.g. viscosity and thermal conductivity) are considered as constant. However, in many applications, the variability Of these properties plays a significa...

Journal Article
Hoffmann, S., Beck, R., Wible, J., Rougier, G., & Krause, D. (2020). Phylogenetic placement of Adalatherium hui (Mammalia, Gondwanatheria) from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar : implications for allotherian relationships. Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, 40(Sup 1), 213-234. https://doi.org/10.1080/02724634.2020.1801706

The phylogenetic position of Gondwanatheria within Mammaliaformes has historically been controversial. The well-preserved skeleton of Adalatherium hui from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar offers a unique opportunity to address this issue, based on...

Modelmaking in architectural space production : studio interactions in the material and the digital realm (2020)
Journal Article
Moustaka, A. (2020). Modelmaking in architectural space production : studio interactions in the material and the digital realm. AMPS proceedings series, 18(1), 176-181

This paper will question and reposition what traditional model making practices in architectural education have enabled and how the transition to digital model making ultimately also means a paradigm shift in the ways we produce, manufacture, design,...

Determining the diurnal variation in comfort temperature in school buildings in the warm and humid climate (2020)
Journal Article
Munonye, C. (2021). Determining the diurnal variation in comfort temperature in school buildings in the warm and humid climate. International Journal of Building Pathology and Adaptation, 39(5), 766-781. https://doi.org/10.1108/IJBPA-07-2020-0056

Purpose The paper aims to determine the thermal comfort perception of schoolchildren from a warm and humid environment. There is a concern about the effect of high temperature on the health and academic performance of schoolchildren. Design/metho...

Journal Article
Carvalho, W., Meyer, C., Xavier, B., Mustin, K., Castro, I., Silvestre, S., …Toledo, J. (2020). Consequences of replacing native savannahs with acacia plantations for the taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic α- and β-diversity of bats in the northern Brazilian Amazon. Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 8, 609214. https://doi.org/10.3389/fevo.2020.609214

Across the globe, millions of hectares of native vegetation have been replaced by commercial plantations, with negative consequences for biodiversity. The effects of the replacement of native vegetation with commercial plantations on the functional a...
