  • Heras, Alejo M.; Breckon, Toby P.; Tirovic, Marko (2011-11-17)
    We present a video generation and visualization system for integration into a driving incident simulator. We combine the use of video re-sampling, target tracking and object segmentation for content re-targeting to ...
  • Hobbs, Stephen; Seynat, Cedric; Matakidis, Panos (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2007-02-10)
    Plant motion in wind is a common phenomenon but has rarely been quantified. Among other effects, plant motion is known to affect the quality (or “coherence”) of interferometric radar images although the loss of quality ...
  • Wang, Yang (Cranfield University, 2011-12)
    The aim of the project presented in this thesis is to demonstrate a modelling method for predicting the variability in the ultimate load of stiffened panel under axial compression due to manufacturing variability. Bulking ...
  • Toro, E. F. (1991)
    We present Numerical Viscosity Functions, or NVFs, for use with Riemann-problem based shock-capturing methods as applied to viscous flows. In particular, viscous flux limiters are derived. The analysis pertain to a linear ...
  • Fu, Shan; Yeung, Hoi (2003-04-28)
    Multiphase pipeline flow is very important to oil, gas and process industry. This is a class of problems where comprehensive simulations, although desirable on physical grounds, are not practical due to the large aspect ...
  • Elliott, Alexander William (Cranfield University, 2012)
    The majority of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) available today depend on Global Position Satellites (GPS) and inertial measurement units (IMU) for state estimation used in navigation and control. However with the increase ...
  • Mannberg, Mikael (Cranfield University, 2014-08)
    This thesis describes a new approach for a vision-based positioning system for Un- manned Aerial Vehicles using a recognition method based on known, robust geo- graphic landmarks. Landmarks are used to calculate a position ...

  • Li, Huiying (Cranfield University, 2012)
    The modern Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) used in airlines today is the TCAS II. It provides pilots with both Traffic Advisory (TA) and Resolution Advisory (RA) which in turn reduces the incidence of ...
  • Cook, Lawrence (Cranfield University, 2009-10)
    This thesis presents a study of the effects of surface colour, surface finish and dent shape on the visual inspection reliability of 3D surface indentations common in shape to those produced by impact damage to carbon ...
  • Westley, R. (College of Aeronautics, 1957-07)
    Experiments to determine the effect of various operating and design parameters on the performance of a vortex tube are described in College of Aeronautics Note No. 30. The present note gives additional performance data ...
  • Lee, D. Y. (2001-06)
    Boundary Layer Flows in turbomachines have been recognised to crucially influence the stability and performance of gas turbine components particularly the compressor since its function is to provide a pressure rise through ...
  • Saban, Deborah (Cranfield University, 2010-01)
    The aim of this research is to develop realistic models of aerodynamic cross-coupling e ects that can be incorporated in real-time or near real-time simulations of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in close formation flight. ...
  • Lilley, G. M. (College of Aeronautics, 1963-03)
    The problem of pressure fluctuations at a rigid wall under a turbulent boundary layer has attracted much attention in the past decade. At low Mach numbers the theory is well established from the work of Kraichnan and ...
  • Kay, E. (College of Aeronautics, 1966)
    1.1 The purpose of the research project has been outlined in Appendix 5 of the report to the Research Fellowship Council Meeting on 10th November, 1955. 1.2 In this first report we consider the simplest model of a ...
  • Kay, E. (College of Aeronautics, 1966)
    1.1. Report No. 1 dealt with the simple warehouse model in a static sense. This was sufficient, the only consideration being optimisation of handling, i.e. the problem posed was spatial. The problem becomes a dynamic ...
  • Charpin, Jean P. F. (Cranfield University, 2002-09)
    Ice growth may rapidly degrade the aerodynamic performance of an aircraft. It can also severely damage structures such as communication towers or power lines. Subsequently, de-icing and anti-icing systems have been ...
  • Nikolaidis, Theoklis (Cranfield University, 2008-10)
    Although gas turbine engines are designed to use dry air as the working fluid, the great demand over the last decades for air travel at several altitudes and speeds has increased aircraft’s exposure to inclement weather ...
  • Goodger, E. M. (College of Aeronautics, 1957-03)
    The injection of water into a spark-ignition piston engine tends to reduce both the power and the tendency to knock. Because of the latter effect the conditions of operation can be made more severe in order to realise ...
