Recent advances in noble metal free doped graphitic carbon nitride based nanohybrids for photocatalysis of organic contaminants in water: A review

Hasija, Vasudha; Raizada, Pankaj; Sudhaik, Anita; Sharma, Kirti; Kumar, Abhinandan; Singh, Pardeep; Jonnalagadda, Sreekantha B.; Thakur, Vijay Kumar (Elsevier, 15-04-15)

Extensive contamination of water bodies by textile dyeing industries, organic pollutants and agricultural waste has emerged water pollution as one of the major global environmental crisis. The effect of this gross negligence ...
Economic and environmental viability assessment of NASA’s turboelectric distribution propulsion

Alrashed, Mosab; Nikolaidis, Theoklis; Pilidis, Pericles; Alrashed, Wael; Jafari, Soheil (Elsevier, 29-06-29)

The concept of turboelectric-distributed propulsion (TeDP) has become integral to engineering because of its ability to generate electricity. However, social science compels careful evaluations of TeDP’s environmental and ...
The influence of air and liquid properties on airblast atomization

Rizkalla, A. A. (Cranfield University, 1974-09-01)

This thesis reports the results of a detailed programme of research on airblast atomization carried out using a specially designed atomizer in which the liquid is first spread into a thin sheet and then exposed on both ...
The design development and evaluation of an active control aircraft model wind tunnel facility.

Malik, I.A. (1982-09)

Recent progress in the field of Active Controls Technology(ACT) has resulted in increased interest in dynamic wind tunnel testing for basic research. The present work reports the findings of a three year research and ...
Theory and practice of a horizontal-axis flexible sail type wind-turbine behaviour.

Arithoppah, Sateeam (1988)

A sail of 0.3m x 0.28m, with 1% slack, was placed in the test section of a wind tunnel. Both surface visualization and pressure distribution tests were undertaken with the sail at various angles of attack, oc , relative ...
Fluid flow and heat transfer around mechanical seals.

Barnes, N. D. (1990)

Mechanical seals are used extensively on rotary applications where the sealed fluid is under pressure. They may rightly be considered to be generally reliable and trouble free, many giving lives of over 3 years. However, ...
Efficient fracture mechanics programming system for linear and non-linear problems using finite-element and boundary-element methods

Al-Edani, Ameen Ahmed Nassar (1990-06)

An attempt has been made, in this work, to design an efficient, linear—elastic and elasto-plastic, fracture mechanics package based upon finite and boundary element methods. The package contains many useful facilities such ...
Fluid driven rotary atomiser for controlled droplet application of herbicides.

Craig, I. P. S. (1991-04)

Handheld electrically driven spinning disc atomisers are capable of applying pesticides more efficiently than with hydraulic nozzles, because the narrower droplet spectra they produce leads to reduced drift and wastage ...
Natural co-ordinates and high speed flows, a numerical method for reactive gases

Dawes, A. S. (1992)

A new high resolution, space marching, numerical method, based on operator splitting, for high speed, steady, planar two dimensional, Inviscid, chemically reacting (real gas) flow fields as described. A simple model for ...
Fault diagnosis of distributed systems : analysis, simulation and performance measurement.

Mohammed, Thabit Sultan (1992-01)

Fault diagnosis forms an essential component in the design of highly reliable distributed computing systems. Early models for diagnosis require a global observer, whereas the diagnosis is shared between the systems nodes ...
The feasibility of liberalisation or deregulation of air transport in the GCC

Al-Suliaman, Saed (1992-05)

Many nations worldwide have been influenced by the experience of the USA in airline deregulation and have begun to consider the reform of their own governmental regulations. However, airline deregulation has both advantages ...
Performance in sampled data systems

Whidborne, James F. (IEEE, 1992-05-01)

A performance index for control systems has been defined as the supremum of the absolute error that occurs over all time and all inputs. The input to the system is known only to the extent that it belongs to a known function ...
Objective on line assessment of the performance of flux cored wires by real time computer based monitoring

Chawla, Kawalprit Singh (1993-04)

The aim of this research was to devise an innovative technique to obtain an objective assessment of the quality performance of tubular cored wires by sensing and measuring the signals available during welding. The work ...
EMS control system design for a Maglev vehicle - a critical system

Whidborne, James F. (Elsevier, 1993-09-01)

For the effective operation of a magnetically levitated (maglev) vehicle using electro-magnetic suspension, it is necessary that the airgap between the guideway and the levitating magnets is maintained. Such systems, where ...
A study of receptivity and technology transfer in small engineering companies.

Anstey, Mike (1993-10)

This thesis addresses the problem of facilitating technology transfer to SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises). The research sets out to explore the existing body of knowledge relating to the problem, and then by means of ...
Hydrogen concentration measurements using a gel-filled electrochemical probe

Allcock, Bryan W. (Cranfield University, 1993-12)

A novel gel-filled electrochemical hydrogen probe was developed and used to measure hydrogen concentrations in carbon-manganese steels. The results were compared with those from an electrochemical permeation technique ...
Investigation into fusion boundary carbon diffusion in 1/2Cr1/2Mo/1/4V weldments

Smith, P. A. (1994)

The steam lines in the majority of power stations operating in the UK were fabricated from kCrkMokV steam pipe material joined using 2CrMo weld metal. Throughout the life of these systems, which operate typically at 565°C ...
The design and analysis of a reconfigurable flight control system for advanced civil aircraft

Oliva, A. P. (1994-04)

This work is concerned with the design of a pitch-rate-command-attitude-hold command and stability augmentation system in order that the augmented aircraft meets the Gibson dropback criterion, the Gibson phase-rate criterion ...
Robust controller design using h-infinity loop-shaping and the method of inequalities

Whidborne, James F.; Postlethwaite, I.; Gu, Da-Wei (IEEE, 1994-12-01)

A new approach to robust controller design is proposed. By using plant-weighting functions as the design parameters, the approach combines the method of inequalities with robust stabilization of normalized coprime factor ...
Reliability analysis for subsea pipeline cathodic protection systems /

Trille, Christophe (Cranfield University, 1996-10)

Subsea pipelines, as the main transportation means for oil and gas produced offshore, are a key element of the production system. Cathodic protection systems (CPS) are used in combination with surface coatings to protect ...
