Insulating polymer nanocomposites for high thermal conduction and fire retarding applications. (2017)
Presentation / Conference
GUPTA, R., HUO, D., PANCHOLI, M., NJUGUNA, J. and PANCHOLI, K. 2017. Insulating polymer nanocomposites for high thermal conduction and fire retarding applications. Presented at the 3rd Defence and security doctoral symposium, 14-15 November 2017, Swindon, UK [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.17862/cranfield.rd.5675281.v1

The possibility of combining the flexibility and light - weight of polymers with the highest insulation of ceramics, drives the field of nanocomposites for potential commercial application. The inclusion of nano-sized insulating particles in the poly... Read More about Insulating polymer nanocomposites for high thermal conduction and fire retarding applications..

Computational analysis and optimization of a MEMS-based piezoresistive accelerometer for head injuries monitoring. (2017)
Presentation / Conference
MESSINA, M., NJUGUNA, J. and PALAS, C. 2017. Computational analysis and optimization of a MEMS-based piezoresistive accelerometer for head injuries monitoring. Presented at the 2017 IEEE sensors conference, 29 October - 1 November 2017, Glasgow, UK.

This work focuses on the design improvement of a tri-axial piezoresistive accelerometer specifically designed for head injuries monitoring where medium-G impacts are common, for example in sports such as racing cars. The device requires the highest s... Read More about Computational analysis and optimization of a MEMS-based piezoresistive accelerometer for head injuries monitoring..
