Determining the relationship between hot flushes and LH pulses in menopausal women using mathematical modelling
(Oxford University Press, 15 April 2019)Background Hypothalamic kisspeptin/neurokinin B/dynorphin (KNDy) neurones regulate LH pulsatility. It is widely accepted that the menopausal hot flush (HF) consistently synchronises with the LH pulse. This suggests that ... -
An integrated microfluidic platform for quantifying drug permeation across biomimetic vesicle membranes
(American Chemical Society, 17 April 2019)The low membrane permeability of candidate drug molecules is a major challenge in drug development and insufficient permeability is one reason for the failure of antibiotic treatment against bacteria. Quantifying drug ... -
A variational principle for fluid sloshing with vorticity, dynamically coupled to vessel motion
(Royal Society, 18 March 2019)A variational principle is derived for two-dimensional incompressible rotational fluid flow with a free surface in a moving vessel when both the vessel and fluid motion are to be determined. The fluid is represented by ... -
Basin bifurcations, oscillatory instability and rate-induced thresholds for AMOC in a global oceanic box model
(Royal Society, The, 2019)The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) transports substantial amounts of heat into the North Atlantic sector, and hence is of very high importance in regional climate projections. The AMOC has been observed ... -
Recommendations for Improving Integration in National End-to-End Flood Forecasting Systems: An Overview of the FFIR (Flooding From Intense Rainfall) Programme
(MDPI, 8 April 2019)Recent surface-water and flash floods have caused millions of pounds worth of damage in the UK. These events form rapidly and are difficult to predict due to their short-lived and localised nature. The interdisciplinary ...
