Energy is inevitable for human life and a secure and accessible supply of energy is crucial for the sustainability of modern societies. Yet mankind now faces challenges of depletion of fossil fuel reserves, global warming and other environmental conc... Read More about Sustainable energy for world economies.

Cutting vehicle emissions with regenerative braking (2010)
Journal Article
Clarke, P., Muneer, T., & Cullinane, K. (2010). Cutting vehicle emissions with regenerative braking. Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 15(3), 160-167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.2009.11.002

This paper presents an analysis of vehicle regenerative braking systems as a quick and relatively easy means of achieving higher overall fuel efficiency and lowering carbon emissions. The system involves the installation of an additional electric mot... Read More about Cutting vehicle emissions with regenerative braking.

Estimation of hourly averaged solar irradiation: evaluation of models. (2010)
Journal Article
Tham, Y. W., Muneer, T., & Davison, B. (2010). Estimation of hourly averaged solar irradiation: evaluation of models. Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 31, 9-25. https://doi.org/10.1177/0143624409350547

Hourly solar radiation data are required in many building services applications. These are also reported in the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers Guides A & J. Data from 16 locations in the UK were used to evaluate the so called Li... Read More about Estimation of hourly averaged solar irradiation: evaluation of models..
