Treatment of contaminated greywater using pelletised mine water sludge (2017)
Journal Article

Precipitated sludge (ochre) obtained from a mine water treatment plant was considered as an adsorbent substance for pollutants, since ochre is relatively free from problematic levels of toxic elements, which could impair on the quality of water to be...

Towards a classification strategy for complex nanostructures (2017)
Journal Article

The range of possible nanostructures is so large and continuously growing, that collating and unifying the knowledge connected to them, including their biological activity, is a major challenge. Here we discuss a conception that is based on connectio... Read More about Towards a classification strategy for complex nanostructures.

Joint optimisation of inspection maintenance and spare parts provisioning: a comparative study of inventory policies using simulation and survey data (2017)
Journal Article
Zahedi-Hosseini, F., Scarf, P., & Syntetos, A. (2017). Joint optimisation of inspection maintenance and spare parts provisioning: a comparative study of inventory policies using simulation and survey data. Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 168, 306-316. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ress.2017.03.007

The demand for industrial plant spare parts is driven, at least in part, by maintenance requirements. It is therefore important to jointly optimise planned maintenance and the associated spare parts inventory using the most appropriate maintenance an...

On the high-pressure phase stability and elastic properties of β-titanium alloys (2017)
Journal Article

We have studied the compressibility and stability of different β-titanium alloys at high pressure, including binary Ti–Mo, Ti–24Nb–4Zr–8Sn (Ti2448) and Ti–36Nb–2Ta–0.3O (gum metal). We observed stability of the β phase in these alloys to 40GPa, well... Read More about On the high-pressure phase stability and elastic properties of β-titanium alloys.

A comparison of deformed wing virus in deformed and asymptomatic honey bees (2017)
Journal Article

Deformed wing virus (DWV) in association with Varroa destructor is currently attributed to being responsible for colony collapse in the western honey bee (Apis mellifera). The appearance of deformed individuals within an infested colony has long been... Read More about A comparison of deformed wing virus in deformed and asymptomatic honey bees.

Model tests on piled raft subjected to lateral soil movement (2017)
Journal Article

Passive loadings due to lateral soil movement-induced activities are highly influencing the serviceability and safety of constructions. This research aims to investigate the influence of axial loads, sand density and the depth of moving soil on the l... Read More about Model tests on piled raft subjected to lateral soil movement.
