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 Demographics and Oxford Knee Score in Total Knee Arthroplasty Patients Between the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia: A Cohort Study (2025)
Journal Article

Background/Objectives: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is considered as important final line of treatment for several conditions such as knee osteoarthritis. Interestingly, culture, demographics, and health care systems may differ between countries, le...

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 undertaking Biomedical Sci... 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...

Therapeutic use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS): a scoping review (2025)
Journal Article

Background
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is characterised by persistent fatigue, cognitive issues, headaches, disrupted sleep, myalgias, arthralgias, post-exertional malaise (PEM), and orthostatic intolerance. Transcran... Read More about Therapeutic use of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS): a scoping review.

Dexterity and Bimanual Coordination, Cognitive Function, Mental and Cognitive Wellbeing in People with Young Onset Dementia: A Case-Control Study (2025)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND
Dexterity and bimanual coordination, cognitive function, and mental and cognitive wellbeing had not previously been examined in people with young onset dementia. Therefore, this study examined dexterity and bimanual coordination, cognitiv...

Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence 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 running of the site an...
