Prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections among university female students, Gaza, Palestine (2019)
Journal Article
Al-Hindi, A., Redwan, A., El-Egla, G., Abu Qassem, R., & Alshammari, A. (2019). Prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections among university female students, Gaza, Palestine. Avicenna Journal of Medicine, 9(4), 143-147. https://doi.org/10.4103/ajm.AJM_8_19

The intestinal parasites are still endemic among children, women, and men in Gaza Strip. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of intestinal parasites among young female students of Islamic University of Gaza to report the existence a...

Not going with the flow : locomotor activity does not constrain immunity in a wild fish (2019)
Journal Article
Masud, N., Synnott, R., Hablützel, P., Friberg, I., Cable, J., & Jackson, J. (2019). Not going with the flow : locomotor activity does not constrain immunity in a wild fish. Ecology and Evolution, 9(21), 12089-12098. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.5658

Immunity is a central component of fitness in wild animals, but its determinants are poorly understood. In particular, the importance of locomotory activity as a constraint on immunity is unresolved. Using a piscine model (Gasterosteus aculeatus) we... Read More about Not going with the flow : locomotor activity does not constrain immunity in a wild fish.

Planning for climate change impacts : coastal tourism destination resilience policies (2019)
Journal Article
Jarratt, D., & Davies, N. (2020). Planning for climate change impacts : coastal tourism destination resilience policies. Tourism Planning and Development, 17(4), 423-440. https://doi.org/10.1080/21568316.2019.1667861

Coastal tourism is a vital part of the world economy bit also facilitates access to “blue spaces” – this offers significant health benefits to populations and shapes our relationship with the coast. At present, climate change impacts on the coast, su... Read More about Planning for climate change impacts : coastal tourism destination resilience policies.

Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Haynes, J., Naggasa, A., Augusthus-Nelson, L., El-basir, F., & Alsaleh, A. (2019, October). Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets. Presented at 9th International Conference on Arch Bridges, Porto, Portugal

The continued use of many UK highway and railway masonry arch bridges is dependent upon maintaining robustness as the materials deteriorate over time. A common failure in multi-ring brickwork arches subject to fatigue, is ring separation. This pape... Read More about Modeling the behavior of radially pinned brick triplets.

Performance enhancement of asphalt patch repair with innovative heating strategy (2019)
Journal Article
Byzyka, J., Rahman, M., Chamberlain, D., & Malieva, M. (2019). Performance enhancement of asphalt patch repair with innovative heating strategy. Proceedings of the ICE - Transport, 175(5), 300-309. https://doi.org/10.1680/jtran.19.00007

The advantage of controlled preheating of excavated asphalt surface prior to hot mix asphalt patch repair, referred as “dynamic repair”, is presented in this paper. The heating effects are compared against traditional repair, referred as “static repa... Read More about Performance enhancement of asphalt patch repair with innovative heating strategy.

Adomian decomposition method simulation of Von Kármán swirling bioconvection nanofluid flow (2019)
Journal Article
swirling bioconvection nanofluid flow. Journal of Central South University, 26(10), 2797-2813. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11771-019-4214-4

The study reveals analytically on the 3-dimensional viscous time-dependent gyrotactic bioconvection in swirling nanofluid flow past from a rotating disk. It is known that the deformation of the disk is along the radial direction. In addition to tha...

Analysis of entropy generation in biomimetic electroosmotic nanofluid pumping through a curved channel with Joule dissipation (2019)
Journal Article
channel with Joule dissipation. Thermal Science and Engineering Progress, 15, 100424. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tsep.2019.100424

Biomimetic designs are increasingly filtering into new areas of technology in recent years. Such systems exploit characteristics intrinsic to nature to achieve enhanced adaptivity and efficiency in engineering applications. Peristaltic propulsion is...

The theory and application of Navier-Stokeslets (NSlets) (2019)
Journal Article
Chadwick, E. (2019). The theory and application of Navier-Stokeslets (NSlets). Physics of Fluids, 31(10), 107103. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5119331

Consider a closed body moving in an unbounded fluid that decays to rest in the far-field and governed by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. By considering a translating reference frame, this is equivalent to a uniform flow past the body. A... Read More about The theory and application of Navier-Stokeslets (NSlets).

Personality and cognitive factors in the assessment of multimodal stimuli in immersive virtual environments (2019)
Thesis
Bailey, J. Personality and cognitive factors in the assessment of multimodal stimuli in immersive virtual environments. (Thesis). University of Salford

Literature in the study of human response to immersive virtual reality systems often deals with the phenomenon of presence. It can be shown that audio and imagery with spatial information can interact to affect presence in users of immersive virtual...
