Phase transition for quenched coupled replicas in a plaquette spin model of glasses (2016)
Journal Article
Jack, R. L., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Phase transition for quenched coupled replicas in a plaquette spin model of glasses. Physical Review Letters, 116(5), Article 055702. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.055702

We study a three-dimensional plaquette spin model whose low temperature dynamics is glassy, due to localized defects and effective kinetic constraints. The thermodynamics of this system is smooth at all temperatures. We show that coupling it to a sec...

Understanding the electrophysiological basis of resting state networks (RSNs) in the human brain is a critical step towards elucidating how inter-areal connectivity supports healthy brain function. In recent years, the relationship between RSNs (typi... Read More about Predicting haemodynamic networks using electrophysiology: The role of non-linear and cross-frequency interactions.

Asymmetric competition causes multimodal size distributions in spatially structured populations (2016)
Journal Article
Velázquez, J., Allen, R. B., Coomes, D. A., & Eichhorn, M. P. (2016). Asymmetric competition causes multimodal size distributions in spatially structured populations. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 283(1823), 20152404. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2015.2404

Plant sizes within populations often exhibit multimodal distributions, even when all individuals are the same age and have experienced identical conditions. To establish the causes of this, we created an individual-based model simulating the growth o...

Closed circuit rebreathing to achieve inert gas wash-in for multiple breath wash-out (2016)
Journal Article
Horsley, A. R., O'Neill, K., Downey, D. G., Elborn, J. S., Bell, N. J., Smith, J., & Owers-Bradley, J. (2016). Closed circuit rebreathing to achieve inert gas wash-in for multiple breath wash-out. ERJ Open Research, 2(1), https://doi.org/10.1183/23120541.00042-2015

Multiple breath wash-out (MBW) testing requires prior wash-in of inert tracer gas. Wash-in efficiency can be enhanced by a rebreathing tracer in a closed circuit. Previous attempts to deploy this did not account for the impact of CO2 accumulation on... Read More about Closed circuit rebreathing to achieve inert gas wash-in for multiple breath wash-out.
