Taqi, A., Farcot, E., Robinson, J. P., & Binner, E. R. (2020). Understanding microwave heating in biomass-solvent systems. Chemical Engineering Journal, 393, Article 124741. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cej.2020.124741

A new mechanism is proposed to provide a viable physical explanation for the action of microwaves in solvent extraction processes. The key innovation is Temperature-Induced Diffusion, a recently-demonstrated phenomenon that results from selective hea... Read More about Understanding microwave heating in biomass-solvent systems.

Cascading failures in networks of heterogeneous node behavior (2020)
Journal Article
Smith, O., Crowe, J., Farcot, E., O'Dea, R., & Hopcraft, K. (2020). Cascading failures in networks of heterogeneous node behavior. Physical Review E, 101(2), Article 020301(R). https://doi.org/10.1103/physreve.101.020301

Variability in the dynamical function of nodes comprising a complex network impacts upon cascading failures that can compromise the network's ability to operate. Node types correspond to sources, sinks or passive conduits of a current ow, applicable... Read More about Cascading failures in networks of heterogeneous node behavior.
