Detached eddy simulation of unsteady flow over a frontal cavity
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2023)Frontal cavity consists of complex unsteadiness which causes bow shock instabilities when the body is moving at supersonic or hypersonic speed through a fluid. These complex unsteady flow fields are an important practical ... -
Effects of freestream disturbances in front of spiked blunt nose at hypersonic flow
(Council of European Aerospace Societies, 2021)The effects of high frequency slow and fast acoustic wave freestream disturbances are modelled in front of pulsating bow shock formed at spiked blunt nose in hypersonic flow. These disturbances are introduced as time-dependent ... -
Numerical study of an aerospike nozzle in retropropulsion
(Council of European Aerospace Societies, 2021)The primary motivation of this numerical study is to explore the feasibility of drag enhancement using aerospike nozzle for retropropulsion in hypersonic flow. An external expansion contoured aerospike nozzle with design ... -
Destination Management: The Influence of Local Food
(Sciendo, 2021-01-29)This study investigates tourist attitudes to local food on destination choice, travel motivation, satisfaction and perceived object-related and existential authenticity. Additionally, the mediating effects of authenticity ... -
An Open-Source Testbed to Visualise ICS Cybersecurity Weaknesses and Remediation Strategies – A Research Agenda Proposal
(IEEE, 2021-07)Industrial Control Systems (ICS) are responsible for the control of several processes in various critical infrastructure deployments ranging from energy, power and water utilities, to manufacturing sectors such as ... -
The Internet in East Africa: a mixed methods study
(East African Journal of Science, Technology and Innovation, 2020)East Africa was the last major area of the world to gain access to the Internet when submarine fibre-optic cables landed at Mombasa, Kenya and Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania in 2009. The region previously relied on satellite ... -
Enabling models of Internet eXchange Points for developing contexts
(Elsevier, 2020-10-24)In 2009, fibre-optic cables landed on the East coast of Africa, the last major area of the world to be connected to the Internet triggering a decade of Internet development (Graham et al., 2015). During the same period, ... -
Insights into the mechanisms of Cronobacter sakazakii virulence
(Elsevier, 2022-06)Cronobacter species have adapted to survive harsh conditions, particularly in the food manufacture environment, and can cause life-threatening infections in susceptible hosts. These opportunistic pathogens employ a multitude ... -
Oblique Detonation Wave Control with O3 and H2O2 Sensitization in Hypersonic Flow
(MDPI journals, 2022-06-04)This numerical study investigates the effects of adding a small amount of ignition promoters for controlling the wedge-induced oblique shock wave (OSW) to oblique detonation wave (ODW) transition in a premixed hydrogen–air ... -
Particle Acceleration Through Coaxial Co-Flow Nozzles for Cold Spray Applications
(ITSC 2022 Thermal Spray Conference and Exposition, 2022)The present study numerically investigates the effectiveness of co-flowing nozzle for cold spray application. A convergent - divergent axi-symmetric nozzles have been simulated with high-pressure nitrogen flow. The particle ... -
Quantification of internal and external training load during a training camp in senior international female footballers
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-03-22)Objective: This study aimed to quantify the internal and external training load profile of an international training camp and identify any differences between positional groups or starting status. Methods: 18 players were ... -
Nematode-based indices in soil ecology: Application, utility, and future directions
(Elsevier, 2022-04-09)The health and functioning of soil ecosystems are the foundation of sustainable food production and land management. Of key importance in achieving sustainability, is the frequent measurement of soil health, and indices ... -
Study of direct gas injection into stagnation zone of blunt nose at hypersonic flow
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2021-07-28)Direct gas injection in the shocked or compressed region has importance in many applications from drag control to ignition and pressure gain combustion. This numerical study is focused on direct light gas injection into ... -
Novel mechanism of instability control using tapered spike in hypersonic flow
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2021-08-02)A forward facing spiked blunt nose in high-speed flows is associated with pulsating flow behavior of varying amplitudes depending on spike-nose and length, the forebody geometry and flow conditions. A tapered spike has ... -
Numerical investigation of detonation propagation through small orifice holes
(Sciendo, 2021)Seeking to better understand the physical phenomena underlying detonation wave propagation through small holes (especially the phenomenon of detonation re-initiation or its failure), we investigated the propagation of a ... -
Age – group differences in reactive strength and measures of intra-day reliability in female international footballers
(International Universities Strength and Conditioning Association, 2021-02-18)The aim of this present study was to compare the reactive strength index (RSI) characteristics and trial to trial reliability of U17, U19 and Senior female international soccer players. Fifty – seven elite female soccer ... -
