Fabrication with magnetic-spin coating: influence of magnetic-inertia energy ratio on gold-Pickering ferrofluid droplet assembly morphology. (2024)
Journal Article
OKPOZO, P., NJUGUNA, J., ISLAM, S., UYANGA, K. and PANCHOLI, K. 2024. Fabrication with magnetic-spin coating: influence of magnetic-inertia energy ratio on gold-Pickering ferrofluid droplet assembly morphology. Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials [online], 611, article number 172577. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmmm.2024.172577

Magnetic self-assembly of nanoparticles is a well-known technique for creating thin-film array-patterned functional microstructures. However, an uncontrollable hierarchical assembly formation of magnetically stimulated particles has hindered the desi...

Predicting hydrates plugging risk in subsea gas pipeline: CFD, analytical and linear regression modelling. (2024)
Thesis
UMUTEME, O.M. 2024. Predicting hydrates plugging risk in subsea gas pipeline: CFD, analytical and linear regression modelling. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2571400

This study addresses critical limitations in managing hydrate plugging risk for gas pipelines. The main challenges lie in accurately predicting hydrate deposition rates and associated pressure drops. To overcome these limitations, the study developed... Read More about Predicting hydrates plugging risk in subsea gas pipeline: CFD, analytical and linear regression modelling..

Numerical investigations on the transient aerodynamic performance characterization of a multibladed vertical axis wind turbine. (2024)
Journal Article
CHRISTIE, J., LINES, T., SIMPSON, D., ASIM, T., SIDDIQUI, M.S. and ISLAM, S.Z. 2024. Numerical investigations on the transient aerodynamic performance characterization of a multibladed vertical axis wind turbine. Energies [online], 17(8), article number 1900. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/en17081900

The use of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) in urban environments is on the rise due to their relatively smaller size, simpler design, lower manufacturing and maintenance costs, and above all, due to their omnidirectionality. The multibladed drag-... Read More about Numerical investigations on the transient aerodynamic performance characterization of a multibladed vertical axis wind turbine..
