The Non-Identity Problem: thought experiments in the ethics of designing for future people (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buwert, P., & Sinclair, M. (2024, June). The Non-Identity Problem: thought experiments in the ethics of designing for future people. Presented at DRS 2024 Boston: Resistance, Recovery, Reflection, Reimagination, Boston, MA, US

The Non-Identity Problem (NIP) is a philosophical puzzle which challenges our intuitive assumptions and reasoning around the question of our moral obligations towards 'future people'. This paper explores the significance of the NIP for design, an act... Read More about The Non-Identity Problem: thought experiments in the ethics of designing for future people.

A method for constrained energy-maximising control of heaving wave-energy converters via a nonlinear frequency response (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Guiver, C. (2024, August). A method for constrained energy-maximising control of heaving wave-energy converters via a nonlinear frequency response. Presented at The 8th IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications (CCTA) 2024, Newcastle Upon Tyne

A theoretical grounding is presented for justifying how frequency domain methods may be applied in the determination of constrained extracted-energy maximising controls in wave-energy conversion applications subject to nonlinear models. A computation... Read More about A method for constrained energy-maximising control of heaving wave-energy converters via a nonlinear frequency response.

Assessing the Impacts of Advanced Heating Controls in UK Households: A Comparative Study and Systematic Review (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Morton, A. (2023, November). Assessing the Impacts of Advanced Heating Controls in UK Households: A Comparative Study and Systematic Review. Presented at Behave 2023: The 7th European Conference on Behaviour Change for Energy Efficiency, Maastrich, The Netherlands

With climate change presenting unprecedented challenges globally, the need for effective, and sustainable, energy transition measures have become increasingly paramount. The domestic sector, whilst responsible for a substantial share of energy consum...
