An experimental study of the concrete using polymer and metakaolin as additives (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Environmental friendly and high performance concrete is very import for the applications in sewage and water treatment industry. Using mineral additives such as fly ash and silica fume has been proven an effective approach to improve concrete propert...

Dementia : an investigation into whether the current process of identifying reasonable adjustment to buildings by access audit is consistent for all disabilities (2016)
Journal Article

This paper is part of the author’s investigation of
disabled access to goods and services, to assess
whether current legislation, policing of that legislation
and the processes adopted to facilitate the
terms of the legislation are delivering as... Read More about Dementia : an investigation into whether the current process of identifying reasonable adjustment to buildings by access audit is consistent for all disabilities.

Challenges during disaster response planning resulting from war operations and terrorism in Iraq (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Al-Dahash, H., Thayaparan, M., & Kulatunga, U. (2016, August). Challenges during disaster response planning resulting from war operations and terrorism in Iraq. Presented at 12th International conference of the International Institute for Infrastructure Resilience and Reconstruction, Kandy Sri Lanka

Disasters, including man-made ones, are an ever-present threat and are occurring at an increasing rate worldwide. Continuing terrorist attacks worldwide are likely to sustain attention to disaster planning, particularly in Middle Eastern countries. S...

A resilience framework for critical infrastructure (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Infrastructures facilitate economic growth, protect human health and the environment and promote welfare and prosperity. Modern societies, therefore, rely heavily on continuous and reliable services provided critical infrastructure. Destructions to t...

Influence of sorption on sound propagation in granular activated carbon (2016)
Journal Article

Granular activated carbon (GAC) has numerous applications due to its ability to adsorb and desorb
gas molecules. Recently, it has been shown to exhibit unusually high low frequency sound absorption.
This behavior is determined by both the multi-sca... Read More about Influence of sorption on sound propagation in granular activated carbon.

Mathematical modelling of entropy generation in magnetized micropolar flow between co-rotating cylinders with internal heat generation (2016)
Journal Article

The present study investigates analytically the entropy generation in magnetized micropolar fluid flow in between two vertical concentric rotating cylinders of infinite length. The surface of the inner cylinder is heated while the surface of the oute...

Magnetohydrodynamic free convection boundary layer Flow of non-Newtonian tangent hyperbolic fluid from a vertical permeable cone with variable temperature (2016)
Journal Article
Flow of non-Newtonian tangent hyperbolic fluid from a vertical permeable cone with variable temperature. Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering, 39(1), 101-116. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40430-016-0611-x

The nonlinear, non-isothermal steady-state boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an incompressible tangent hyperbolic non-Newtonian (viscoelastic) fluid from a vertical permeable cone with magnetic field are studied. The transformed conservation e...

Inhibition of Bcl-xL sensitizes cells to mitotic blockers, but not mitotic drivers (2016)
Journal Article
Bennett, A., Sloss, O., Topham, C., Nelson, L., Tighe, A., & Taylor, S. (2016). Inhibition of Bcl-xL sensitizes cells to mitotic blockers, but not mitotic drivers. Open Biology, 6(8), https://doi.org/10.1098/rsob.160134

Cell fate in response to an aberrant mitosis is governed by two competing networks: the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) and the intrinsic apoptosis pathway. The mechanistic interplay between these two networks is obscured by functional redundancy a... Read More about Inhibition of Bcl-xL sensitizes cells to mitotic blockers, but not mitotic drivers.
