A 12 month prospective cohort study of injury in international rowers.
(2010)Objective: In this study, the injury incidence and association with type and volume of training in international rowers were described. Design: A prospective cohort design was used over a 12- month period. Patients: ... -
3D bioprinting of prevascularised implants for the repair of critically-sized bone defects
(2021)For 3D bioprinted tissues to be scaled-up to clinically relevant sizes, effective prevascularisation strategies are required to provide the necessary nutrients for normal metabolism and to remove associated waste by-products. ... -
3D bioprinting spatiotemporally defined patterns of growth factors to tightly control tissue regeneration
(2020)Therapeutic growth factor delivery typically requires supraphysiological dosages, which can cause undesirable off-target effects. The aim of this study was to 3D bioprint implants containing spatiotemporally defined patterns ... -
3D printed microchannel networks to direct vascularisation during endochondral bone repair
(2018)Bone tissue engineering strategies that recapitulate the developmental process of endochondral ossification offer a promising route to bone repair. Clinical translation of such endochondral tissue engineering strategies ... -
3D printing of fibre-reinforced cartilaginous templates for the regeneration of osteochondral defects
(2020)Successful osteochondral defect repair requires regenerating the subchondral bone whilst simultaneously promoting the development of an overlying layer of articular cartilage that is resistant to vascularization and ... -
AC Voltage Induced Electrohydrodynamic Two-Phase Convective Boiling Heat Transfer in Horizontal Annular Channels
(2012)An experimental study of alternating current (AC) induced electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow and heat transfer augmentation for boiling inside an annular channel containing working fluid refrigerant HFC-134a has been conducted ... -
Acoustic plate-valve resonator for low-frequency sound absorption
(2023)An acoustic plate-valve resonator is developed and optimized to maximize absorption by enhancing the Helmholtz resonance with coincident structural vibrations of the plate-valve. The current research initially examines the ... -
Adaptive Design of a Prototype Electricity-Producing Biomass Cooking Stove
(2015)This work is a second iteration of an adaptive design project aimed at developing an appropriate off-grid technology for small-scale electricity generation in rural Malawi, and possibly for other developing countries. ... -
Advanced diamond-reinforced copper composite coatings via cold spray and material characterization
(2016)Diamond reinforced copper matrix composites (DCMC) has great potentials for heat sinks applications due to their excellent thermal properties. Cold Spray, as a relatively emerging coating technique, is able to ... -
Aeroacoustic Noise Source Identification Using Irregularly Sampled LDV Measurements Coupled with Beamforming (AIAA-2011-2719)
(2011)This paper develops a technique which relates dynamic pressure measurements taken outside the hydrodynamic eld of a low speed jet to single point, one component velocity measurements taken within the jet using a Laser ... -
Aeroacoustic source characterization technique applied to a cylindrical Helmholtz resonator
(2011)The aim of this work is to investigate the sound produced by a Helmholtz resonator excited by a boundary layer. A deep cylindrical cavity with a small rectangular opening was designed to allow Helmholtz resonance as well ... -
Aeroacoustics research in Europe: The CEAS-ASC report on 2022 highlights
(2024)The Council of European Aerospace Societies (CEAS) Aeroacoustics Specialists Committee (ASC) supports and promotes the interests of the scientific and industrial aeroacoustics community on a European scale and European ... -
Affinity-bound growth factor within sulfated interpenetrating network bioinks for bioprinting cartilaginous tissues
(2021)3D bioprinting has emerged as a promising technology in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine due to its ability to create anatomically complex tissue substitutes. However, it still remains challenging ... -
Age-related responses to injury and repair in insect cuticle
(The Company of Biologists Ltd, 2019)We evaluated the ability of female adult desert locusts (Schistocercagregaria) to repair injuries to their exoskeletons and restore mechanical strength over the course of their natural life. We discovered that younger ... -
Air jet cooling of brake discs
(Institution of Mechanical Engineers, 2008)This paper reports on an investigation of a novel approach to the cooling of brake discs, based on the application of impinging air jets. This has the capacity to enhance the heat transfer coefficients at the disc surface ...
