Influence of non-linear wave load models on monopile supported offshore wind turbines for extreme conditions by Ryan, GV, Tang, T, McAdam, RA, Adcock, TAA

“…These models are compared to the widely used constrained wave approach, showing that significant differences are predicted for steel and geotechnical design checks. This suggests that the industry standard approach may be inappropriate for the design of monopile structures against extreme wave loads.…”

Symbolic verification and strategy synthesis for turn-based stochastic games by Kwiatkowska, M, Norman, G, Parker, D, Santos, G

“…Probabilistic model checking techniques for this class of models allow us to formally specify quantitative specifications of either collective or individual behaviour and then automatically synthesise strategies for the agents under which these specifications are guaranteed to be satisfied. …”

Development of image-based method for the quantitative assessment of cartilage damage from CT as a biomarker in osteoarthritis by Zheng, J-Q

“…</p> <p>The next phase included segmenting the cartilage from aligned CT volumes, utilizing a deep learning segmentation method, the Gate Attention-U-net, for enhanced precision and versatility in cartilage segmentation, achieving an 88% DSC and 9um ASD in the tibia's weight-bearing area.</p> <p>After extracting cartilage shape, we compared the thickness and remaining volume of tibial cartilage in the weight-bearing area with a prior semi-manual method, observing a Pearson correlation coefficient (R value) exceeding 0.8 with the semi-manual method (p&lt;0.0001) and a correlation with OA scores from histological images (p&lt;0.05). …”

Experimental study on effects of multi-column removal affecting behaviour of RC frames to mitigate progressive collapse by Ye, Da Wei

“…Various studies were conducted in the last decade with majority focusing on instances whereby only a single load bearing member, such as a column, was removed. However, in most real life accidental situations (terrorist attack/ vehicular impact) involving progressive collapse, they will often result in heavy initial impact that will lead to multi-column loss in a RC structure. …”
