You don't know what you don't know; using high school outreach to improve awareness of bioscience-based careers and higher education (2025)
Journal Article

When considering the diversity of students in higher education, an important but frequently overlooked characteristic is socioeconomic background. It is well known that those from socially disadvantaged backgrounds are less likely to progress to high...

The First Cadenza Challenges: Using Machine Learning Competitions to Improve Music for Listeners With a Hearing Loss (2025)
Journal Article

Listening to music can be an issue for those with a hearing impairment, and hearing aids are not a universal solution. This paper details the first use of an open challenge methodology to improve the audio quality of music for those with hearing loss...

Two dimensional modelling of the interaction between electromagnetic waves and plasma-metamaterial composite structures using the particle-in-cell method (2025)
Journal Article

In this work we (i) extend previous 1D studies of electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation in an over-dense plasma-metamaterial composite into two spatial dimensions and (ii) study blocking of EM waves by the composite 2D structures (barriers). Such bar... Read More about Two dimensional modelling of the interaction between electromagnetic waves and plasma-metamaterial composite structures using the particle-in-cell method.

Enhanced performance of hierarchical porous HKUST-1/g-C3N4 heterostructure in the degradation of antibiotics with and without light (2025)
Journal Article

Currently, the advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for water treatment are limited by the demand on externally supplied oxidants or illumination. To overcome these constraints, a series of micro-nano-composites composed of a copper-based metal–organi... Read More about Enhanced performance of hierarchical porous HKUST-1/g-C3N4 heterostructure in the degradation of antibiotics with and without light.

Enhancing Career Development for Biomedical Sciences Students: Leveraging Simulations to Support Patient-Facing Careers (2025)
Journal Article

Simulations have become integral to medical education for professions such as nursing and medicine but are still a rare opportunity for students undertaking basic science courses including Biomedical Sciences. Many students undertak... Read More about Enhancing Career Development for Biomedical Sciences Students: Leveraging Simulations to Support Patient-Facing Careers.

A Comparative Analysis of Solar Thermal and Photovoltaic Systems with Heat-Pump Integration in a New-Build House Under Controlled Conditions (2025)
Journal Article

This study investigates the relative benefits of solar thermal (ST) and photovoltaic (PV) systems integrated with air-source heat pumps for domestic hot water production in newly built residential buildings. Using calibrated DesignBuilder simulations... Read More about A Comparative Analysis of Solar Thermal and Photovoltaic Systems with Heat-Pump Integration in a New-Build House Under Controlled Conditions.

Electromagnetic scattering by fractal screens: from diffraction integrals towards a boundary element method (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The scattering of time-harmonic electromagnetic fields by perfectly-conducting plane
screens is a fundamental problem in physics. A standard approach to computing the scattered
wave is to deploy Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integrals in conjunct... Read More about Electromagnetic scattering by fractal screens: from diffraction integrals towards a boundary element method.

A novel triplet loss architecture with visual explanation for detecting the unwanted rotation of bolts in safety-critical environments (2025)
Journal Article

In the commonly used method of bolting to secure parts of equipment and structure, the bolts must be tightened to an adequate preload force. Failure to do so could affect the integrity of the structure, as well as the efficient runn... Read More about A novel triplet loss architecture with visual explanation for detecting the unwanted rotation of bolts in safety-critical environments.

Techno-Economic analysis of spot price volatility management in energy market incorporating Artificial neural network (2025)
Journal Article

Recently, the emergence of distributed energy resources in the consumer premises has given rise to microgrids. It
has become crucial to consider the impact of microgrids on the operation of existing power systems. Additionally,
the reforms in the e... Read More about Techno-Economic analysis of spot price volatility management in energy market incorporating Artificial neural network.
