Infrared and Raman spectroscopy of blood plasma for rapid endometrial cancer detection (2025)
Journal Article
Schiemer, R., Grant, J., Shafiee, M. N., Phang, S., Furniss, D., Boitor, R., Seddon, A. B., Notingher, I., Atiomo, W., Jones, N. W., & Gajjar, K. B. (2025). Infrared and Raman spectroscopy of blood plasma for rapid endometrial cancer detection. British Journal of Cancer, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41416-025-03050-0

Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the 6th most common cancer among women worldwide. No effective non-invasive screening methods or approved blood biomarkers for EC exist. Previous research explored Attenuated Total Reflection-Fourier Transform I... Read More about Infrared and Raman spectroscopy of blood plasma for rapid endometrial cancer detection.

Framework for uncertainty evaluation in optical surface topography measurement using a virtual instrument (2025)
Journal Article
Hooshmand, H., Pappas, A., Isa, M. A., Su, R., Haitjema, H., Piano, S., & Leach, R. (2025). Framework for uncertainty evaluation in optical surface topography measurement using a virtual instrument. Measurement, 253(Part D), Article 117604. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.measurement.2025.117604

Uncertainty evaluation in the measurement of surfaces with complex topography using optical techniques remains a challenge due to the complex interaction between light and the surfaces. The ISO 25178 part 600 specification standard simplifies uncerta... Read More about Framework for uncertainty evaluation in optical surface topography measurement using a virtual instrument.

A dual-layer modelling method for characterizing and optimizing the energy flexibility of building heating systems (2025)
Journal Article
Dou, Y., Xu, B., Jiang, P., Wang, X., Zheng, X., Yan, Y., & Du, X. (2025). A dual-layer modelling method for characterizing and optimizing the energy flexibility of building heating systems. Applied Thermal Engineering, 271, Article 126312. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2025.126312

Utilizing passive thermal storage with electric heat pumps enables cost-effective building energy flexibility enhancement. Current reduced-order modeling approaches for control simulations introduce significant simulation-reality discrepancies, while...

Heat pumps and the requirement for grid-scale energy storage in the UK (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Cardenas, B., Garvey, S., Baniamerian, Z., & Mehdipour, R. (2024, December). Heat pumps and the requirement for grid-scale energy storage in the UK. Presented at IET Powering Net Zero (PNZ 2024), Birmingham

In this paper we study the effect that the electrification of heat demand through the use of air-source heat pumps could have on a future zero-carbon electricity grid in the UK and the requirement for grid-scale energy storage. The study considers di... Read More about Heat pumps and the requirement for grid-scale energy storage in the UK.
