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.

Application of the applied element method to a reinforced concrete sub- assemblage under a column-removal scenario (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper validates and calibrates the applied element method (AEM) by modelling experimental results from the literature that examine the behaviour of reinforced concrete sub-assemblages under column-removal scenarios. Additionally, the paper ident... Read More about Application of the applied element method to a reinforced concrete sub- assemblage under a column-removal scenario.

Single-Point and Multipoint Design of Propellers for Electric-Powered General Aviation (2024)
Journal Article

With electric-powered aircraft concepts slowly maturing, it becomes feasible to include RPM regulation in propeller operation. Variable-pitch and variable-speed propellers will be designed for efficient operation in a wider performance space compared...

A neural network based non-intrusive surrogate modelling framework for fluid-structure interaction (2024)
Journal Article

The use of surrogate modelling in Multiphysics simulation is becoming increasingly attractive due to large computation time and hardware demands of modern simulations. These methods aim to reduce the computational time and complexity of the determina...

Compliant actuators that mimic biological muscle performance with applications in a highly biomimetic robotic arm (2023)
Preprint / Working Paper

This paper endeavours to bridge the existing gap in muscular actuator design for ligament-skeletal-inspired robots, thereby fostering the evolution of these robotic systems. We introduce two novel compliant actuators, namely the Internal Torsion Spri...
