description: Wind turbines play an increasingly vital role in the global renewable energy landscape, offering a sustainable alternative to fossil fuel-based power generation. Offshore wind energy holds great promise for producing substantial electrical output due to the larger swept area resulting from longer blades. Currently, the largest wind turbines have diameters of up to 236 m, with blade tip speeds surpassing 100 m/s. These high velocities cause interactions between blade tips and raindrops or other airborne particles, leading to gradual erosion, wear, and degradation over time. The leading edge of the wind turbine is the primary area impacted by raindrops, causing wear at both surface and sub-surface levels. Initially, damage is minimal, which is known as the incubation period. Following this phase, fatigue damage accelerates during the mass-loss-rate increasing period, necessitating the investigation of fatigue damage through the coating layers. To address this, a continuum fatigue damage model is proposed for lifetime prediction of coated substrates during the incubation period. This model offers several advantages, including the ability to accurately represent the progressive accumulation of damage over time and to capture complex interactions between material properties and loading conditions. By providing a continuous representation of fatigue damage, the model allows for better prediction of material behavior, especially during the early stages of degradation. Therefore, a finite element model was developed to analyze the coating fatigue lifetime under multi-point pressure impact with respect to three raindrop sizes with 50 m/s velocity during the incubation period. This model helps predict erosion rates and identify vulnerable regions on the blade surface that are most susceptible to accelerated wear.

description: Due to numerous links between trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) and various disorders and diseases, this topic is very popular and is often taken up by researchers. TMAO is a low molecular weight compound that belongs to the class of amine oxides. It is formed by the process of oxidation of trimethylamine (TMA) by the hepatic flavin monooxygenases (FMO1 and FMO3). TMAO is mainly formed from nutritional substrates from the metabolism of phosphatidylcholine/choline, carnitine, betaine, dimethylglycine, and ergothioneine by intestinal microflora in the colon. Its level is determined by many factors, such as age, gender, diet, intestinal microflora composition, kidney function, and also liver flavin monooxygenase activity. Many studies report a positive relationship between the level of TMAO concentration and the development of various diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases and cardiorenal disorders, including atherosclerosis, hypertension, ischemic stroke, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, and chronic kidney disease, and also diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, cancers (stomach, colon), as well as neurological disorders. In this review, we have summarized the current knowledge on the effects of TMAO on human health, the relationship between TMAO and intestinal microbiota, the role of TMAO in different diseases, and current analytical techniques used in TMAO determination in body fluids.

title: Exploring the transition from
staff nurse to
ward sister/manager –
An exploratory case study
Creators: name: Enterkin, Judith
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2016

description: Background
The ward sister/manager figure has traditionally been considered the ward based
clinical leader. This role has evolved over time in response to professional and
political demands; despite or because of this, reports of role ambiguity exist and
the ward sister/manager position has become increasingly difficult to recruit to,
with nurses arguably looking to roles perceived to have greater influence and
status, but less onerous managerial responsibility. Understanding the nature of
this role and the factors that may impact upon the transition from staff nurse to
ward sister/manager is of great significance. The gaps in understanding related to
development in preparation for and in the early stages of this role, led to this
research, with the aim of understanding the experience of the transition and the
impact of organisation factors, and whether they facilitate or hinder the process
of transition for this group of nurses.
Study design
A case study approach consisting of interviews and documentary analysis was
undertaken in one metropolitan National Health Service hospital, underpinned by
a critical realist approach. The case study comprised interviews with six nurses,
repeated over time with three of those nurses, who had recently participated in a
leadership development programme and key informants who were senior
practitioners within the organisation or who were recommended by participants,
in combination with strategy and policy scrutiny and website analysis. Ritchie and Spencer’s Framework approach was used to support the management and
subsequent analysis of the data.
Findings
The ward sister/manager role was identified as a vital role, but the managerial
components of the role served as a significant disincentive to participants.
Participants required support from significant role models during the transition
process, although the degree of support, both required and available, varied.
Motivating factors and the sense of job satisfaction were essential for developing
a sense of self-fulfilment. A range of support mechanisms were present and
utilised across the organisation but these appeared disparate and the lack of a
unifying vision for nursing services was apparent.
Contribution to knowledge
Developing into the ward sister/manager role involves a significant transition that
has not previously been acknowledged. Job satisfaction in the ward
sister/manager role is significantly affected by organisational factors, as well as
individual factors. The organisation itself contributes to the role legitimacy of this
role.
title: An exploration of the return to work
experiences of individuals who are
managing a traumatic hand injury
and the development of a return to
work intervention.
Creators: name: Fitzpatrick, Niall
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2015

description: The effect of a traumatic hand injury on an individual can be wide ranging and
include both physical and psychological dimensions. Getting back to work following
such an injury is often challenging. This study aimed to explore individuals’
experiences of returning to work following a traumatic hand injury and to use
insights gained to develop and pilot a return to work intervention.
The study comprised two stages. A reflective lifeworld research methodology, with a
longitudinal perspective, was used to underpin the first stage. Seven adults in fulltime
work were interviewed at three distinct time points following their traumatic
hand injury. Many participants continued to engage in their usual daily activities,
including being at work, and most of them initially expected to make a full and
speedy recovery. It was with this view that participants made decisions concerning
their return to work. Once back at work it became clear that the impact of the injury
was wider ranging than they anticipated and difficulties arose with managers and
colleagues regarding participants’ ability to comply with their rehabilitation
programme within the context of work.
The second stage used findings from stage one to extend the scope of the
rehabilitation interventions, moving away from a hand therapy programme that
focused solely on the healing structure to a rehabilitation programme that also
included patient concerns in line with occupational therapy principles. A return to
work intervention was developed which was integrated with the existing
rehabilitation programme. This intervention was piloted with seven people in full-time
employment. Reflective lifeworld research was used to analyse their experiences
within the context of the phenomenon under investigation.
Results indicated that participants’ return to work experience was more positive and
controlled following the return to work intervention. Therapists’ involvement in the
development of the return to work plan provided an authoritative and independent
way for managers and participants to implement the return to work intervention. An
ability to manage their return to work and their exercise programme at the same
time was reported by participants. This research has illuminated the complexity of
the life and work journey of individuals with traumatic hand injury, the stages of the
adaptation process and their rehabilitation needs. Inclusion of other stake holders such as the manager and GP could be useful in developing the return to work
intervention further through a randomised control trial.

description: Wind Assisted Propulsion Systems (WAPS) are crucial in the maritime industry's decarbonization efforts. As part of the Horizon Europe Orcelle Wind project, a new wind-powered roll-on/roll-off (ro-ro) cargo vessel is being developed with commissioning targeted for late 2026 or early 2027. This vessel incorporates a Wing System (WS) technology, utilizing aerodynamic thrust forces for propulsion. Early identification of mechanical malfunctions and component degradation is essential to ensure the WS operates safely and effectively. UGent's primary contribution to this initiative involves the development of numerical tools to support data-driven structural integrity assessments for the WS, focusing on fatigue degradation and lifetime analysis.

A probabilistic fatigue reliability framework has been developed to evaluate the structural reliability of the WS under uncertain conditions. This approach accounts for load, material, and geometric parameter variability, leveraging a non-intrusive Stochastic Finite Element Model (SFEM) for structural response assessment. Uncertainties in wind loads, material properties, and geometric factors are captured through Sobol sequence-based low-discrepancy sampling, modeling nine random variables to cover a broad probability space.

This study presents only the wind-induced fatigue stresses on the critical components within the wing system. The stochastic characteristics of these stresses are derived from Finite Element (FE) simulation results, based on representative combinations of uncertain parameters. Future work will incorporate additional assessments of inertial loads across varying wind angles, and surrogate models will be developed to predict structural responses using sensor data. Stress-life methodologies will subsequently be applied to estimate the fatigue life of individual components, with the overall fatigue reliability of the wing system being assessed through Bayesian Networks.

Refrigerant flow and heat transfer prediction for propane in heat pump applications

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: As global warming intensifies, the heating and cooling sector is turning to heat pumps as sustainable alternatives. The phase-out of high global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants is driving the transition towards natural refrigerants, such as propane, which have significantly lower GWP. However, the high flammability of propane introduces new safety challenges, requiring system modifications to comply with stricter safety regulations.

One approach to address these concerns is reducing the refrigerant charge while developing more energy and material efficient components. In this context, multiport tube heat exchangers are replacing conventional round tube designs as evaporators. These heat exchangers work with lower refrigerant charge, but they are prone to flow maldistribution, negatively impacting the system performance. To mitigate this, standard distributors alone are insufficient, but are installed in combination with headers. The design of the header is critical in improving the system efficiency, making it essential to investigate the flow behavior within the header.

Furthermore, relevant experimental data are scarce in the current literature. This research aims to bridge this gap by developing experimental correlations for heat transfer and pressure drop during flow boiling of propane in multiport tube heat exchangers. Additionally, the distribution of the two-phase refrigerant within both the header and the heat exchanger will be investigated to better understand maldistribution effects. The findings will be used to calibrate and improve models for designing headers and heat exchangers, enhancing the reliability of simulations tool and reducing need for trial and error in design optimization. Specifically, this study focuses on operating conditions with mass fluxes between 5 and 50 kgm2/s, heat fluxes ranging from 0.3 and 1.3 kW/m2 and saturation temperatures between -20 and 5 °C – conditions currently unexplored in the literature.
Melting regime maps to characterize heat transfer during solid-liquid phase change

description: Latent thermal energy storage (LTES) systems with phase change materials (PCMs) are a promising technology to store intermittent, renewable energy. However, the development of accurate and efficient design methods still remains a challenge, due to the transient behavior of these systems. This study investigates the melting process in rectangular enclosures heated from one side wall at constant temperature. To study the melting behavior, the melting regime theory of Jany and Bejan (1988) is applied, which states that the melting process can be divided into distinct melting regimes, each with their own characteristic heat transfer behavior. First, heat transfer occurs mainly through conduction. Once enough liquid PCM is formed, natural convection will come into play and become the dominant mode of heat transfer. Previous studies often overlook the distinction between the different regimes, potentially compromising the accuracy of their results. This project aims to address this limitation by separately characterizing the heat transfer in each melting regime and identifying the conditions under which the transitions occur. The combination of the correlations for heat transfer and the transitions is referred to as 'melting regime map'. The poster presents an overview of our current findings based on literature data, and the remaining research gaps.

The Nonlinear Vibration Absorber for Mitigating Torsional Vibrations

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: From causing mild inconveniences to catastrophic failures, vibration affects all structural and mechanical components.  The situation becomes especially critical when the structure is subjected to an exciting force that induces resonance. Industry trends towards lightweight construction compounds this issue by lowering the resonance frequency . The existing solution of attaching auxiliary linear vibration absorbers, is not so robust to changes in the structure, nor is it effective for mitigating other potential resonances. The Nonlinear Vibration Absorber (NVA) solves these issues by introducing nonlinear elements to the vibration absorber, offering a robust and broadly tuneable vibration control solution. Here, a piecewise-stiffening NVA is used to mitigate the torsional vibrations of a benchmark system. The piecewise-linear stiffness of the NVA mimics a cubic nonlinear stiffness, by the different angular engagement of flexural rods. The dynamics of the NVA-host system is studied analytically, by assuming the response to be of a single frequency; referred to as the first-order Complexification-Averaging scheme. The frequency response thus obtained has undesirable Isolated Resonance Curves and regions of quasi-periodic response, but shows 80%-87% reduction in the resonant response.

description: As offshore wind energy advances, floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) provide a crucial solution for harnessing wind power in deep waters where fixed-bottom wind turbines are not viable. Traditional FOWT analyses model structural behaviour as a rigid substructure connected to a flexible or rigid tower, allowing easy extraction of tower base loads. Consequently, most fatigue research for FOWT substructures focuses on the tower base, neglecting welded joints, which are known to be fatigue-critical locations. Hence, accurate assessment of the loads, and particularly the local stresses at these joints, is vital.
This poster introduces a multidimensional time-domain strategy to estimate the fatigue life of a FOWT substructure, highlighting a novel load mapping method that translates global dynamic simulation loads into a detailed finite element model (FEM). The initial step applies hydrostatic, inertial, mooring, tower base, and Morison drag loads to the FEM. Hydrodynamic forces like diffraction, radiation, and Froude-Krylov loads, however, are commonly oversimplified as concentrated forces at the substructure's centre of gravity. For better precision, these forces should be represented as distributed pressures across the wetted surface of the substructure.
To achieve this, a boundary element method (BEM) solver calculates these distributed pressures in the frequency domain, which are then converted to time-domain data using dynamic simulation inputs, i.e. wave elevation for diffraction and Froude-Krylov loads, and platform motion for radiation loads. This high-fidelity load modelling on the FEM enables the determination of accurate stresses, and, in extension, fatigue life predictions for the FOWT substructure. These predictions are crucial for optimising the structural integrity and operational lifespan of offshore wind energy systems.

description: This poster presents a radiation-hardened-by-process 74 Gbps electro-absorption modulator driver designed in a 130 nm SiGe BiCMOS technology for application in optical intra-satellite links. The driver is designed to enable optical communications to replace the RF waveguides that are currently used to connect the antennas of a satellite to its interior core. By substituting these waveguides with optical fiber, the size and weight of the connecting networks is significantly decreased, all while allowing for a more flexible and scalable network. However, the outer space environment differs greatly from the terrestrial environment these optical communications devices are typically designed for, mainly because of the presence of both ionizing radiation and high-energy particles. To combat this, several design considerations are taken, and experiments are performed to assess the vulnerability of the driver against radiation exposure in the space environment. The tested samples show little change when irradiated with X-rays up to a total accumulated dose of 1.2 Mrad(Si). During the heavy-ion test, no latchup was observed and transients introduced bit errors at a rate of only 6.4 x10^-13. Both of these experiments demonstrate the radiation hardness of the tested driver, and show that it is indeed suitable to successfully replace the heavy metal waveguides in satellites.

description: BACKGROUND: Whether, and how, co-occurring HIV-1 infection (HIV) and tuberculosis (TB) impact cardiovascular status, especially in adolescents with perinatally acquired HIV (APHIV), have not been examined. We hypothesised that APHIV with previous TB disease have worse cardiac efficiency than APHIV without TB, which is mediated by increased inflammation and disordered cardiometabolism. METHODS: APHIV in Cape Town, South Africa, completed 3T cardiovascular magnetic resonance examination and high sensitivity C reactive protein (hsCRP), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglyceride measurement. Ventriculoarterial coupling (VAC) was estimated as the ratio of arterial elastance (Ea) to ventricular end-systolic elastance (Ees). Regression models were applied to estimate cross-sectional associations between Ea/Ees ratio and TB status, with decomposition of these associations into direct and mediated effects of hsCRP, FPG and dyslipidaemia, if any, attempted. RESULTS: We enrolled 43 APHIV with prior TB and 23 without TB of mean (SD) age 15.0 (1.5) and 15.4 (1.7) years, respectively. Prior TB was associated with lower Ea/Ees ratio (0.59 (0.56 to 0.64)) than no TB (0.66 (0.62 to 0.70)), which corresponded to an adjusted mean difference -0.06 (-0.12 to 0.01) (p=0.048). However, previous TB was not associated with increased hsCRP, FPG, LDL or triglycerides nor were hsCRP, FPG, LDL and triglycerides associated with Ea/Ees ruling out their mediated effects in the association between TB and cardiac efficiency. CONCLUSIONS: Previous TB in APHIV is associated with comparatively reduced cardiac efficiency, related to altered VAC. The clinical significance of these findings requires further study, including a wider range of biomarkers of specific immune pathways.

description: Jacket type substructures for offshore wind turbines gained prominence in the 2010s, especially in wind farms where monopiles became less feasible due to increasing water depths. As these turbines near the end of their design life, extending their operational lifetime or repowering offers significant economic and ecological advantages compared to decommissioning. However, these strategies both require an accurate assessment of the remaining fatigue life of the substructure.
Previous studies showed that the actual weld geometry strongly affects local stress concentrations, influencing the fatigue life of offshore substructures. Current fatigue assessments in the design phase assume perfectly cylindrical tubular members with simplified welds, while also omitting surface degradation effects. This research aims to improve the fatigue assessment of offshore jackets by incorporating the as-built joint geometry, including ovality, out-of-roundness, surface irregularities, and the real weld geometry, to better estimate stress concentrations and fatigue damage accumulation.
Four full-scale tubular joints were scanned. The joints originate from a decommissioned gas platform jacket that was installed in the North Sea in the 1980s and was decommissioned in 2023. A handheld 3D laser scanner was used to capture the real geometry of the joints. Since the scanning principle is based on the reflection of light, only the outer surface can be scanned. In this work, a framework was developed to automatically extend the tubular members and reconstruct the inner parts that could not be scanned.

description: A multiparameter fibre sensor for pressure, temperature, and curvature detection is proposed. The sensor is constituted by a single section of a hollow square core fibre (HSCF) spliced between a single mode fibre (SMF) and a long section of a silica capillary tube (SCT). The splicing of different fibres creates parallel interfaces that can give rise to interferometers that propagate in the fibre sections. In a reflection scheme, several Fabry-Perot (FP) cavities are enhanced in different areas of the HSCF. In a single 439 µm long sensing head, three FP cavities are excited. Using the Fourier band-pass filter method, each cavity is individually monitored towards the measurand variation. The sensor revealed a maximum pressure sensitivity of (3.23 ± 0.04) nm/MPa for FP1 within a pressure variation of 0.4 MPa. As for the temperature response, FP3 attained the highest sensitivity of (9.6 ± 0.3) pm/°C up to 110°C. On the other hand, the sensor revealed a maximum curvature sensitivity of (22 ± 1) pm/m-1 for FP3, in a range of 9 m-1. The distinct responses of the FP cavities allow for a hybrid application for simultaneous measurement of pressure, temperature, and curvature. Additionally, a sinusoidal behaviour is found in the curvature response when bending is applied for different relative positions of the fibre. The proposed sensor is robust with simple fabrication and small dimensions, demonstrating promising potential for applications where the simultaneous measurement of several physical parameters is required.

description: The optimization of both machine and process efficiency has surged in importance, as it is a key part of the energy transition. This poster addresses the need for enhanced energy efficiency in electromechanical systems by identifying an optimal switching frequency that minimizes total power losses while adhering to the precision constraints of calorimetry. The research aims to determine the optimal switching frequency for a drive system that minimizes power losses in a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and drive combination. Measurements are conducted using a precision calorimeter, providing highly accurate power loss data.

Obtaining precise measurements using a calorimeter is time-intensive, as each reading requires the system to reach a steady state. To speed up the process, an initial quick sweep of switching frequencies is performed, spanning from low to high frequencies and back, repeated six times to assess power loss variance. The collected data are then used for polynomial fitting, creating a model of power loss as a function of switching frequency. This model supports a specially developed gradient descent algorithm, which tests a reduced number of points and iteratively adjusts the switching frequency by tuning specific parameters to converge on the frequency that minimizes power loss.

The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the optimized switching frequency selection. The developed algorithm identifies a switching frequency of 4211 Hz as the optimal frequency, with a minimized total power loss of 1132 W across five tested points. Additionally, experimental tests were conducted with eight points to confirm that the minimum power loss frequency was identified. These tests show that the switching frequency yielding the lowest observed power loss is 3341 Hz, resulting in a total power loss of 1035 W.

description: Over the last decade, research on 3D food printing (3DFP) as novel processing technology for meat analogues has emerged. This combines bioscience and chemical engineering to understand every aspect of the process. Protein-rich and lipid-rich inks are applied, where the animal fat may be mimicked by an emulsion, i.e. a mixture of two immiscible liquids. Despite the plant-based trend, stabilizing multiphasic food products with plant-based proteins as stabilizers instead of conventional animal proteins still faces some challenges. The main reason is that plant proteins perform differently at the interface as they exhibit lower aqueous solubility and thus form weaker viscoelastic films. Therefore, the formulation and long-term stability of plant-based emulsions need further investigation. Preferably, one can find a way to predict the long-term emulsion stability.
This work aims at (i) understanding the stabilization of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions with plant-based proteins, (ii) extracting interfacial and bulk rheological data to enhance the rheological comprehension of O/W emulsions, and (iii) relating the stability to the used methods. O/W emulsions with oil/water content of 80/20 were formulated. The oil phase consists of soybean oil, whereas the water phase concerns a soy protein isolate (SPI) dispersion. Two different treatments were performed on the SPI dispersions. Whereas interfacial tension, interfacial rheology, and bulk rheology were investigated. Only the interfacial rheological results could explain the difference in emulsion stability after 30 days.
In summary, this work provides a relation between the interfacial properties and long-term stability of plant-based emulsions. The reported findings acknowledge the importance of rheology and can pave the way to include novel lipid-rich inks in 3D-printed plant-based meat.
