Changes in morphological disparity in eutherian mammals across the K-Pg boundary and Palaeocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum using discrete morphofunctional characters (2022)
Thesis
morphofunctional characters. (Dissertation). University of Salford

The mammalian clade Eutheria comprises placental mammals (the dominant group of mammals today, with >6000 living species, ~93% of living diversity) plus their stem relatives. A major event in Earth history that had a profound influence on Eutheria wa...

An optimisation of a chordwise slot to enhance lateral flow control on a UCAV (2022)
Journal Article
Ali, U., Chadwick, E., & Sugar-Gabor, O. (2022). An optimisation of a chordwise slot to enhance lateral flow control on a UCAV. Incas Bulletin, 14(4), 3-17. https://doi.org/10.13111/2066-8201.2022.14.4.1

This research aims to optimise a chordwise slot so that lateral flow control of a flying wing configuration can be enhanced. This was achieved by maximising the airflow rate over the trailing edge control surfaces of the wing. A higher rate of airf...
