Pd supported on carbon nitride boosts the direct hydrogen peroxide synthesis (2016)
Journal Article

Herein, the development of an improved Pd on
carbon nitride catalyst for direct H2O2 synthesis from the
elements is reported. Microcalorimetric CO chemisorption is used to characterize the chemical speciation of the Pd-selective and -unselective si... Read More about Pd supported on carbon nitride boosts the direct hydrogen peroxide synthesis.

On the CO2 and noise emissions forecast in future aviation scenarios in the UK (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Aircraft operations have a significant impact on local air quality, climate change, fuel consumption and noise around airports. In order to reach emission targets set by aviation agencies (e.g. ACARE), to reduce environmental impact and to ensure a s...

Building democracy from below : lessons from Western Uganda (2016)
Journal Article

How to achieve democratisation in the neopatrimonial and agrarian environments that predominate in sub-Saharan Africa continues to present a challenge for both development theory and practice. Drawing on intensive fieldwork in Western Uganda, this pa... Read More about Building democracy from below : lessons from Western Uganda.

Reducing simulation performance gap in hemp-lime buildings using fourier filtering (2016)
Journal Article
Jankovic, L. (2016). Reducing simulation performance gap in hemp-lime buildings using fourier filtering. Sustainability, 8(9), Article 864. https://doi.org/10.3390/su8090864

Mainstream dynamic simulation tools used by designers do not have a built-in capability to accurately simulate the effect of hemp-lime on building temperature and relative humidity. Due to the specific structure of hemp-lime, heat travels via a maze... Read More about Reducing simulation performance gap in hemp-lime buildings using fourier filtering.

A new non-linear vortex lattice method : applications to wing aerodynamic optimizations (2016)
Journal Article
Sugar-Gabor, O., Koreanschi, A., & Botez, R. (2016). A new non-linear vortex lattice method : applications to wing aerodynamic optimizations. Chinese Journal of Aeronautics, 29(5), 1178-1195. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cja.2016.08.001

This paper presents a new non-linear formulation of the classical Vortex Lattice Method (VLM) approach for calculating the aerodynamic properties of lifting surfaces. The method accounts for the effects of viscosity, and due to its low computational... Read More about A new non-linear vortex lattice method : applications to wing aerodynamic optimizations.

A new mitigation scheme to resist progressive collapse of RC structures (2016)
Journal Article

Reinforced concrete structures may be vulnerable to progressive collapse due to lack of sufficient continuous reinforcement. In most guidelines, general structural integrity requirements to reduce progressive collapse have been introduced, but the de...
