Molecular Profiling of RNA Tumors Using High-Throughput RNA Sequencing: From Raw Data to Systems Level Analyses (2019)
Journal Article
Abraham da Silveira, W., Hazard, E. S., Chung, D., & Hardiman, G. (2019). Molecular Profiling of RNA Tumors Using High-Throughput RNA Sequencing: From Raw Data to Systems Level Analyses. Methods in Molecular Biology, 185-204. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-9004-7_13

RNAseq is a powerful technique enabling global profiles of transcriptomes in healthy and diseased states. In this chapter we review pipelines to analyze the data generated by sequencing RNA, from raw data to a system level analysis. We first give an...

Computation of entropy generation in dissipative transient natural convective viscoelastic flow (2019)
Journal Article
Kumar, M., Reddy, G., Kiran, G., Aslam, M., & Beg, O. (2019). Computation of entropy generation in dissipative transient natural convective viscoelastic flow. Heat Transfer - Asian Research, 48(3), 1067-1092. https://doi.org/10.1002/htj.21421

Entropy generation is an important aspect of modern thermal polymer processing optimization. Many polymers exhibit strongly non-Newtonian effects and dissipation effects in thermal processing. Motivated by these aspects in this article a numerical an... Read More about Computation of entropy generation in dissipative transient natural convective viscoelastic flow.

Model tests on single batter piles subjected to lateral soil movement (2019)
Journal Article
Al-Salih, O., Toma-Sabbagh, T., Alwadi, W., & Alabboodi, I. (2019). Model tests on single batter piles subjected to lateral soil movement. Research journal of applied sciences, engineering and technology (Online), 16(1), 24-29. https://doi.org/10.19026/rjaset.16.5995

A series of laboratory tests have been carried out to investigate the lateral response of battered piles under lateral soil movement. Model tests were carried out using instrumented rigid aluminium piles. The piles were embedded in homogeneous sand s...

Assessing the impact of velocity dip and wake coefficients on velocity prediction for open channel flows (2019)
Journal Article

The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of the velocity-dip and wake strength on the velocity prediction using the dip modified laws. The dip modified laws, particularly the dip modified log wake law (DMLW-law), are preferred over the tr...

Reviewing the condition of historic textile mills in the North West (2019)
Journal Article
Miller, I. (2019). Reviewing the condition of historic textile mills in the North West. Historic England research (Online), 11, 18-27

Textile mills are fundamental to the history, culture and landscape of much of the North of England. They were the powerhouses behind the industrialisation of the region, triggering technological innovation, stimulating new trade and transforming the...

Age and growth in a European flagship amphibian : equal performance at agricultural ponds and favourably managed aquatic sites (2019)
Journal Article
aquatic sites. Aquatic Ecology, 53(1), 37-48. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10452-018-09671-3

In human-modified landscapes, little is known about the influence of aquatic habitat types on the demographic structure of residing amphibian populations. In the present paper, we focus on a European flagship urodele species (the great crested newt T...

Thermal influence in the performance of static and dynamic hot mix asphalt pothole repairs (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Byzyka, J., Rahman, M., & Chamberlain, D. A. (2019, January). Thermal influence in the performance of static and dynamic hot mix asphalt pothole repairs. Presented at 2019 Transportation Research Board Annual Meeting, Washington, D.C

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 hot mix repair, referred as “sta... Read More about Thermal influence in the performance of static and dynamic hot mix asphalt pothole repairs.

Computational study of heat transfer in solar collectors with different radiative flux models (2019)
Journal Article
