Agent-based ethical decision-making control optimization framework for self-driving vehicles (2022)
Thesis
Yusha'u, S. (2022). Agent-based ethical decision-making control optimization framework for self-driving vehicles. (Thesis). University of Salford

When driving, humans balance values like safety, legality, and mobility. When sharing the road with humans, an autonomous vehicle will likely use the same values. Incorporating human values into algorithm design is tough for self-driving vehicle engi...

High pressure photoluminescence of bismuth-doped yttria-alumina-silica glass (2022)
Journal Article
Hughes, M., McMaster, R., Proctor, J., Hewak, D., Suzuki, T., & Oshidi, Y. (2022). High pressure photoluminescence of bismuth-doped yttria-alumina-silica glass. High Pressure Research, https://doi.org/10.1080/08957959.2022.2044031

We report the effects of high pressure, up to 10.45 GPa, on the photoluminescence of Bi-doped yttria-alumina-silica (Bi:YAlSi) glass under 532 nm excitation. We identify three emission bands attributed to Bi3+, Bi+ and the controversial NIR emitting... Read More about High pressure photoluminescence of bismuth-doped yttria-alumina-silica glass.

Heavy metal distribution in Wrigley Head, Moston Brook, Greater Manchester, Northwest England : implications for risk assessment and remediation (2022)
Thesis
Northwest England : implications for risk assessment and remediation. (Thesis). University of Salford

Heavy metal contaminated sites pose potential environmental and health problems and represent a great barrier to the beneficial use of contaminated sites. Therefore, the study of heavy metal contamination is a vital knowledge gap which, when filled,...
