Review of the influence of noise in X-ray computed tomography measurement uncertainty (2020)
Journal Article
Sánchez, Á. R., Thompson, A., Körner, L., Brierley, N., & Leach, R. (2020). Review of the influence of noise in X-ray computed tomography measurement uncertainty. Precision Engineering, 66, 382-391. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.precisioneng.2020.08.004

Different aspects of noise in X-ray computed tomography (XCT) for industrial purposes are examined. An overview of the most common noise metrics is given, together with a description of XCT noise influence quantities. We address the current state of...

Ceria-coated replicated aluminium sponges as catalysts for the CO-water gas shift process (2020)
Journal Article
Palma, V., Goodall, R., Thompson, A., Ruocco, C., Renda, S., Leach, R., & Martino, M. (2021). Ceria-coated replicated aluminium sponges as catalysts for the CO-water gas shift process. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 46(22), 12158-12168. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2020.04.065

A study on the use of chemical conversion coating as a preparative technique for foam-based structured catalysts, in the water gas shift reaction, is presented. The results showed a significant correlation between the textural properties of the struc...

Metrological characteristics for the calibration of surface topography measuring instruments: a review (2020)
Journal Article
Leach, R. K., Haitjema, H., Su, R., & Thompson, A. (2020). Metrological characteristics for the calibration of surface topography measuring instruments: a review. Measurement Science and Technology, 32(3), Article 032001. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6501/abb54f

In this paper, we will review the development and use of an ISO standardised framework to allow calibration of surface topography measuring instruments. We will draw on previous work to present the state of the art in the field in terms of employed m...

Polymer powder bed fusion surface texture measurement (2020)
Journal Article
de Pastre, M.-A., Thompson, A., Quinsat, Y., Albajez, J. A., Senin, N., & Leach, R. K. (2020). Polymer powder bed fusion surface texture measurement. Measurement Science and Technology, 31(5), Article 055002. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6501/ab63b1

Polymer laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) surfaces can be challenging to measure. These surfaces comprise complex features including undercuts, deep recesses, step-like transitions, a large range of measurement scales and unfavourable optically material...
