Drivers of severe air pollution events in a deep valley during wintertime: a case study from the Arve river valley, France
(2021-02-15)
The Arve river valley airshed in the French Alps experiences particularly severe air pollution during wintertime stable atmospheric conditions associated with persistent cold-air pools. PM10 data recorded in the region ...
A VLBA Survey of radio stars in the Orion Nebula Cluster: II. Astrometry
(2021-01-04)
From Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations we previously identified a population of 123 young stellar systems with nonthermal radio emission toward the core of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC). We find optical sources ...
Developing microfluidic devices and techniques for isolation and detection of Extracellular Vesicles (EVs)
(2020-10-09)
The purpose of this research is to develop microfluidic devices and systems for the effective isolation of bacterial Extracellular vesicles (EVs) by applying Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF) operation. The purification and ...
Transits of Known Planets Orbiting a Naked-Eye Star
(2020-09-01)
Some of the most scientifically valuable transiting planets are those that were already known from radial velocity (RV) surveys. This is primarily because their orbits are well characterized and they preferentially orbit ...
Effect of cellulosic filler loading on mechanical and thermal properties of date palm seed/vinyl ester composites
(2019-12-27)
There are numerous better applications of fibre reinforced polymer composites today, when compared with metals and alloys. Many studies have been conducted to further improve the inherent mechanical and thermal properties ...
Experimental and numerical prediction of extrusion load at different lubricating conditions of aluminium 6063 alloy in backward cup extrusion
(2019-10-14)
In the present research work using a backward cup extrusion (BCE) die profile, different lubricating conditions on aluminum alloy AA6063 have been experimentally and numerically investigated to predict the extrusion load. ...
Recent advances in thermal properties of hybrid cellulosic fiber reinforced polymer composites.
(2019-08-28)
Bio-composites are easy to manufacture and environmentally friendly, could reduce the overall cost and provide lightweight due to the low density of the natural fibers. In a bid to compete with the synthetic fiber reinforced ...
Human-centred design methods : developing scenarios for robot assisted play informed by user panels and field trials
(2010)
This article describes the user-centred development of play scenarios for robot assisted play, as part of the multidisciplinary IROMEC1 project that develops a novel robotic toy for children with special needs. The project ...

Introducing Smirk 2
(2009)
We introduce a new open source windows based lecture capture solution called Smirk 2. We describe the motivations for writing the tool, a comparison with other such programs on the market, and explain the mechanism of ...
