Investigating the feasibility of using dynamic stiffness beam functions in a hybrid structure-borne noise prediction model (2019)
Thesis
Filipe, D. (in press). Investigating the feasibility of using dynamic stiffness beam functions in a hybrid structure-borne noise prediction model. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Ground-borne vibration and structure-borne noise in buildings associated with nearby railway systems, either above ground or underground, is a common occurrence in
densely populated areas. This is especially true where new transportation systems are... Read More about Investigating the feasibility of using dynamic stiffness beam functions in a hybrid structure-borne noise prediction model.

A covariance based framework for the propagation of uncertainty through inverse problems with an application to force identification (2019)
Journal Article
Meggitt, J., Moorhouse, A., & Elliott, A. (2019). A covariance based framework for the propagation of uncertainty through inverse problems with an application to force identification. Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, 124, 275-297. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ymssp.2018.11.038

Inverse problems are widely encountered in fields as diverse as physics, geophysics, engineering and finance.
In the present paper, a covariance based framework for the estimation of their uncertainty is presented and applied to the problem of inve... Read More about A covariance based framework for the propagation of uncertainty through inverse problems with an application to force identification.

A model for estimating cooling energy demand at early design stage of condominiums (2019)
Journal Article
Hemba Geekiyanage, M., & Ramachandra, T. (in press). A model for estimating cooling energy demand at early design stage of condominiums. Journal of Building Engineering, 17, 43-51. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jobe.2018.01.011

Amongst the energy end-use sectors of an economy, residential buildings have become the dominant by consuming 50–70% of operational energy for Heating Ventilation & Air Conditioning (HVAC). Surprisingly, in Sri Lanka, energy consumption for space coo... Read More about A model for estimating cooling energy demand at early design stage of condominiums.

Role assigning and taking in cloud computing (2019)
Journal Article
Khan, S., Nicho, M., Takruri-Rizk, H., Maamar, Z., & Kamoun, F. (2019). Role assigning and taking in cloud computing. Human Systems Management, 38(1), 1-27. https://doi.org/10.3233/HSM-180336

The widespread use of cloud computing (CC) has brought to the forefront information technology (IT) governance issues, rendering the lack of expertise in handling CC-based IT controls a major challenge for business enterprises and other societal orga...

Plant Defense by VOC-Induced Microbial Priming (2019)
Journal Article
Liu, H., & Brettell, L. (2019). Plant Defense by VOC-Induced Microbial Priming. Trends in Plant Science, 24(3), 187-189. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2019.01.008

The plant holobiont extends the plant’s capacity for nutrient acquisition and stress protection. Recent studies show that under biotic stress plants can promote the acquisition of certain beneficial bacteria to their rhizosphere. Active emission of v...

Smart processes for smart buildings : ‘sustainable processes’, ‘recyclable processes’ and ‘building seeds’ in parametric design (2019)
Journal Article

The rapid evolution of digital technologies and the resulting emergence of novel design methodologies are coinciding with climate change, population growth and increased pressure on global resources. This concurrence evokes opportunities to harness t... Read More about Smart processes for smart buildings : ‘sustainable processes’, ‘recyclable processes’ and ‘building seeds’ in parametric design.

“Energetic” cancer stem cells (e-CSCs) : a new hyper-metabolic and proliferative tumor cell phenotype, driven by mitochondrial energy (2019)
Journal Article
Fiorillo, M., Sotgia, F., & Lisanti, M. (2019). “Energetic” cancer stem cells (e-CSCs) : a new hyper-metabolic and proliferative tumor cell phenotype, driven by mitochondrial energy. Frontiers in Oncology, 8(677), https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2018.00677

Here, we provide the necessary evidence that mitochondrial metabolism drives the anchorage-independent proliferation of CSCs. Two human breast cancer cell lines, MCF7 [ER(+)] and MDA-MB-468 (triple-negative), were used as model systems. To
directly... Read More about “Energetic” cancer stem cells (e-CSCs) : a new hyper-metabolic and proliferative tumor cell phenotype, driven by mitochondrial energy.

Lie group analysis of nanofluid slip flow with Stefan Blowing effect via modified Buongiorno’s Model : entropy generation analysis (2019)
Journal Article
Rana, P., Shukla, N., Beg, O., & Bhardwaj, A. (2021). Lie group analysis of nanofluid slip flow with Stefan Blowing effect via modified Buongiorno’s Model : entropy generation analysis. Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems, 29(1), 193-210. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12591-019-00456-0

This article presents a detailed theoretical and computational analysis of alumina and titania-water nanofluid flow from a horizontal stretching sheet. At the boundary of the sheet (wall), velocity slip, thermal slip and Stefan blowing effects are co...
