A design technique for geometric optimisation of resonant coil sizes in low to mid frequency inductive power transmission systems. (2021)
Thesis
HEIDARIAN, M. 2021. A design technique for geometric optimisation of resonant coil sizes in low to mid frequency inductive power transmission systems. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1677972

Wireless power transfer (WPT) is a well-established method of energising electrically-powered devices. Among the different available WPT techniques, Resonant Inductive Power Transfer (RIPT) has been adapted for use in a wide range of applications. Th...

Optical fibre-based sensors for oil and gas applications. (2021)
Journal Article
JOHNY, J., AMOS, S. and PRABHU, R. 2021. Optical fibre-based sensors for oil and gas applications. Sensors [online], 21(8), article 6047. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/s21186047

Oil and gas (O&G) explorations moving into deeper zones for enhanced oil and gas recovery are causing serious safety concerns across the world. The sensing of critical multiple parameters like high pressure, high temperature (HPHT), chemicals, etc.,... Read More about Optical fibre-based sensors for oil and gas applications..

Anti-corrosion behavior of olmesartan for soft-cast steel in 1 mol dm−3 HCL. (2021)
Journal Article
PRAVEEN, B.M., ALHADHRAMI, A., PRASANNA, B.M., HEBBAR, N. and PRABHU, R. 2021. Anti-corrosion behavior of olmesartan for soft-cast steel in 1 mol dm−3 HCl. Coatings [online], 11(8), article 965. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/coatings11080965

This study discusses the effects of temperature on corrosion inhibition for soft-cast steel by the pharmaceutically active drug olmesartan in 1 mol dm−3 HCl. The sufficient number of electron-rich elements and non-bonding π electrons in its structure... Read More about Anti-corrosion behavior of olmesartan for soft-cast steel in 1 mol dm−3 HCL..

Numerical and experimental study of the impact of temperature on relative permeability in an oil and water system. (2021)
Thesis
BALOGUN, Y. 2021. Numerical and experimental study of the impact of temperature on relative permeability in an oil and water system. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-1357866

Relative permeability is affected by several flow parameters, predominantly operating temperature and fluid viscosity. Fluid viscosity changes with temperature, which correspondingly affects the relative permeability. Temperature is believed to have...
