CHAPTER 12: Self-assembled Peptide Nanostructures for Antibacterial Applications
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-01-01)Antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacteria are unequivocally identified as the most important global threat to human, animal and plant health in the 21st century. In humans, AMR is predicted to outstrip cancer, cardiovascular, ... -
Chapter 3 Life Cycle Assessment as a Metric for Circular Economy
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-03-01) -
Characterisation of Polyurethane-urea as Leading-Edge Erosion Resistant Materials of Wind Turbine Blades
(IOP Publishing, 2024)Surrounded by oceans, building offshore wind turbines is a great strategy for archipelago countries, like Indonesia, to harvest renewable energy from wind. However, because of high rainfall rate, water droplet erosion on ... -
Characterisation of Sticky Debris Generated During Smear Wear
(Rubber Division, ACS, 2023-09-29)Smear wear behaviour has often been observed during rubber abrasion especially under mild test severities. It generates degraded sticky rubber debris, which often produces erratic measurements of abrasion weight loss. ... -
Characterising the friction coefficient between rubber O-rings and a rigid surface under extreme pressures
(Elsevier, 2021-10-01)Previous research into the friction behaviour of elastomers has typically focused on the effects of velocity, contact pressure, counter surface and lubrication on the coefficient of friction. O-ring type elastomer seals ... -
Characteristics of shock-induced boundary layer separation on nacelles under windmilling diversion conditions
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2023)The boundary layer on the external cowl of an aero-engine nacelle under windmilling diversion conditions is subjected to a notable adverse pressure gradient due to the interaction with a near-normal shock wave. Within the ... -
Characterization of aggregate behaviors of torrefied biomass as a function of reaction severity
(Elsevier BV, 2020-01-28) -
Characterization of an imaging multimode optical fiber using digital micro-mirror device based single-beam system
(Optical Society of America (OSA), 2018-07-09) -
Characterization of capillary waves: a review and a new optical method
(AIP Publishing, 2021)The methods to study capillary waves have been reviewed, together with the emerging practical applications of theirs and new theoretical developments in the field. The focus is on monochromatic ripples of frequency in the ... -
Characterization of microwave and terahertz dielectric properties of single crystal La2Ti2O7 along one single direction
(Elsevier, 2021-08-01)New generation wireless communication systems require characterisations of dielectric permittivity and loss tangent at microwave and terahertz bands. La2Ti2O7 is a candidate material for microwave application. However, all ... -
Checkpointing with Time Gaps for Unsteady Adjoint CFD
(2019-01-01)© Springer International Publishing AG 2019. Gradient-based optimisation using adjoints is an increasingly common approach for industrial flow applications. For cases where the flow is largely unsteady however, the adjoint ... -
Chemical mechanisms of dissolution of calcite by HCl in porous media: Simulations and experiment
(2018-11-01)© 2018 The Authors We use a pore-scale dissolution model to simulate the dissolution of calcite by HCl in two different systems and compare with experiment. The model couples flow and transport with chemical reactions at ...
