The role of contracts in achieving effective governance of intermodal terminals. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Monios, J. (2014, November). The role of contracts in achieving effective governance of intermodal terminals. Paper presented at GreCOR project final conference

Public sector actors often provide financial or planning support to intermodal terminal developments with the aim of achieving societal benefits through modal shift from road haulage to rail transport. Once operational, such terminals exhibit a varie... Read More about The role of contracts in achieving effective governance of intermodal terminals..

Formulation Pre-screening of Inhalation Powders Using Computational Atom–Atom Systematic Search Method (2014)
Journal Article

The synthonic modeling approach provides a molecule-centered understanding of the surface properties of crystals. It has been applied extensively to understand crystallization processes. This study aimed to investigate the functional relevance of syn... Read More about Formulation Pre-screening of Inhalation Powders Using Computational Atom–Atom Systematic Search Method.

Dynamic response of a geotechnical rigid model container with absorbing boundaries (2014)
Journal Article
Lombardi, D., Bhattacharya, S., Scarpa, F., & Bianchi, M. (2015). Dynamic response of a geotechnical rigid model container with absorbing boundaries. Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 69, 46-56. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.soildyn.2014.09.008

One of the major challenges encountered in earthquake geotechnical physical modelling is to determine the effects induced by the artificial boundaries of the soil container on the dynamic response of the soil deposit. Over the past years, the use of... Read More about Dynamic response of a geotechnical rigid model container with absorbing boundaries.

Metasurface-Epsilon Near Zero-based Electromagnetic Wave Absorber (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
La Spada, L. (2014, September). Metasurface-Epsilon Near Zero-based Electromagnetic Wave Absorber. Presented at 9th International Conference on Body Area Networks, London, Great Britain

The purpose of this paper is to design a new electromagnetic wave absorber. It consists of a planar layered structure with an isotropic Epsilon-Near-Zero (ENZ) material and a gold metal inclusion, both placed over a perfect conductor (PEC) plate. Abs...
