Improving microgrid frequency stability through PI-PIDA-driven STATCOM optimization using a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm (2025)
Journal Article

Frequency instability caused by symmetrical and asymmetrical faults in a microgrid can cause significant oscillations and deviations from the nominal frequency. Therefore, there is a need to develop new control methods to ensure the rapid stabilizati...

Comparison of Deep Learning and Psychoacoustic Models to Predict UAV Noise Impact in Soundscapes (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

* The increasing prevalence of Unmanned Aircraft Systems in urban environments necessitates a deeper understanding of their impact on the experience of urban soundscapes. This study presents Machine Learning models aimed at predicting perceived annoy... Read More about Comparison of Deep Learning and Psychoacoustic Models to Predict UAV Noise Impact in Soundscapes.

Computation of Manganese Ferrite/Nickel Ferrite Ethylene glycol hybrid ferromagnetic nanofluid stretching flow with radiative flux: Applications in solar nano-coatings (2025)
Journal Article

Renewable energy has expanded significantly in the 21st century due to increasing efficiency and sustainability and reducing harmful emissions. Among various renewable sources, solar energy is the most abundant. Engineers have developed numerous sola...

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...

Celastrol induces pro-apoptotic and anti-migratory effects against medulloblastoma subtypes (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Introduction
Medulloblastoma accounts for 20-25% of all paediatric brain tumours diagnosed worldwide (de Medeiros et al., 2019). Current treatment regimens are effective. However, most options lead to long-term off-target effects. Therefore, the con... Read More about Celastrol induces pro-apoptotic and anti-migratory effects against medulloblastoma subtypes.

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.

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...
