The authors have used the FDTD method to model and predict the radiation patterns from a microstrip antenna. One problem in modelling microstrip antennas is that these structures are highly resonant. The authors have described techniques to reduce th... Read More about Simulation of radiation from a microstrip antenna using three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method..

The authors have applied the 3D FDTD technique to simulate the propagation of electrical signals on a microstrip antenna using a four-transputer array connected to a 386-based PC. This relates to work currently being carried out into the propagation... Read More about Parallel processing techniques in EMP propagation using 3D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method..

Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems. (1991)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., & Gupta, N. K. (1991, November). Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems. Presented at International Conference on Computation in Electromagnetics

The authors discuss techniques in the modelling of electromagnetic fields using finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods applied to 80×86-based PCs or limited memory computers. Electrical modelling of structures is currently carried out mainly in... Read More about Simulation of three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method on limited memory systems..

The place for increasing interest and enhancing learning in the area of Microwave/ EM Wave propagation is in the laboratory.

Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Anderson, C., Smales, A., Varga, J., Burns, N., Uthmani, O., Fan, L., Lo, O., & Lawson, A. Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?

Within health and social care there is a strong need to provide access to highly sensitive information, and one which requires high levels of identity assurance. This paper outlines a joint project between Edinburgh Napier University and miiCard [10]... Read More about Who would you trust to identify you in accessing your health record?.

Preprint / Working Paper
Buchanan, B., Imran, M., Pagliari, C., Pell, J., & Rimpiläinen, S. Use Of Participatory Apps In Contact Tracing: Options And Implications for Public Health, Privacy and Trust. Glasgow

On December 31st, 2019, the World Health Organisation received a report from the Chinese government detailing a cluster of cases of ‘pneumonia of unknown origin’, later identified as novel coronavirus. The virus, now referred to as COVID-19, quickly... Read More about Use Of Participatory Apps In Contact Tracing: Options And Implications for Public Health, Privacy and Trust.
