Fast and accurate quasi-3D aerodynamic methods for aircraft conceptual design studies (2020)
Journal Article
Sugar-Gabor, O., & Koreanschi, A. (2021). Fast and accurate quasi-3D aerodynamic methods for aircraft conceptual design studies. Aeronautical Journal, 125(1286), 593-617. https://doi.org/10.1017/aer.2020.128

In this paper, recent developments in quasi-3D aerodynamic methods are presented. At their core, these methods are based on the Lifting-Line Theory and Vortex Lattice Method, but with a relaxed set of hypotheses, while also considering the effect o...

The influence of national culture on health and safety performance in Kuwait oil and gas sector construction projects (2020)
Thesis
Almutairi, M. The influence of national culture on health and safety performance in Kuwait oil and gas sector construction projects. (Thesis). University of Salford

Difference in terms of culture among the workers in a workplace setting must not be ignored as it is the main cause of misinterpretations and misunderstandings, which eventually lead to accidents. Responses to the acts, behaviours and activities resu... Read More about The influence of national culture on health and safety performance in Kuwait oil and gas sector construction projects.

Enhanced oil recovery through integration of ultrasound and polymer flooding (2020)
Thesis
Hassan, K. Enhanced oil recovery through integration of ultrasound and polymer flooding. (Thesis). University of Salford

Initially, when an oil well is drilled the oil gushes to the surface at high pressure. However, with time the pressure declines leaving more than 50% of the oil trapped in the reservoir. Even with the introduction of current technologies, more than 4... Read More about Enhanced oil recovery through integration of ultrasound and polymer flooding.

Know your enemy : a molecular approach to determine how the pygmy shrew (Sorex minutus) in Ireland succumbs to the invasion of the greater white-toothed shrew (Crocidura russula) (2020)
Thesis
Browett, S. Know your enemy : a molecular approach to determine how the pygmy shrew (Sorex minutus) in Ireland succumbs to the invasion of the greater white-toothed shrew (Crocidura russula). (Thesis). University of Salford

Ireland’s smallest resident mammal, the pygmy shrew (Sorex minutus) is rapidly being displaced by the invasive greater white-toothed shrew (Crocidura russula). The presence of this invasive shrew was first recorded in 2007 and they have been expandin...

Network traffic analysis for threats detection in the Internet of Things (2020)
Journal Article
Hammoudeh, M., Pimlott, J., Belguith, S., Epiphaniou, G., Baker, T., Kayes, A., …Bounceur, A. (2020). Network traffic analysis for threats detection in the Internet of Things. IEEE Internet of Things Magazine, 3(4), 40-45. https://doi.org/10.1109/IOTM.0001.2000015

As the prevalence of the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to increase, cyber criminals are quick to exploit the security gaps that many devices are inherently designed with. Whilst users can not be expected to tackle this threat alone, many cur... Read More about Network traffic analysis for threats detection in the Internet of Things.
