Extracting an Empirical Intermetallic Hydride Design Principle from Limited Data via Interpretable Machine Learning (2019)
Journal Article
Witman, M., Ling, S., Grant, D. M., Walker, G. S., Agarwal, S., Stavila, V., & Allendorf, M. D. (2020). Extracting an Empirical Intermetallic Hydride Design Principle from Limited Data via Interpretable Machine Learning. Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 11(1), 40-47. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.9b02971

An open question in the metal hydride community is whether there are simple, physics-based design rules that dictate the thermodynamic properties of these materials across the variety of structures and chemistry they can exhibit. While black box mach... Read More about Extracting an Empirical Intermetallic Hydride Design Principle from Limited Data via Interpretable Machine Learning.

Discharge of a composite metal foam/phase change material to air heat exchanger for a domestic thermal storage unit (2019)
Journal Article
Talebizadeh Sardari, P., Giddings, D., Grant, D., Gillott, M., & Walker, G. S. (2020). Discharge of a composite metal foam/phase change material to air heat exchanger for a domestic thermal storage unit. Renewable Energy, 148, 987-1001. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2019.10.084

This paper evaluates the discharging mechanism in a PCM (phase change material) to air heat exchanger for the purpose of space heating using a composite of copper foam and PCM. The composite system is modelled with both 2-D and 3-D computational flui...

Impact of Serum Source on Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Osteogenic Differentiation in Culture (2019)
Journal Article
Popov, A., Scotchford, C., Grant, D., & Sottile, V. (2019). Impact of Serum Source on Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Osteogenic Differentiation in Culture. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 20(20), Article 5051. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms20205051

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) show promise for musculoskeletal repair applications. Animal-derived serum is extensively used for MSC culture as a source of nutrients, extracellular matrix proteins and growth factors. However, the routine use of...

Modelling a kinetic deviation of the magnesium hydrogenation reaction at conditions close to equilibrium (2019)
Journal Article
Adams, M., Grant, D. M., Stuart, A., & Walker, G. S. (2019). Modelling a kinetic deviation of the magnesium hydrogenation reaction at conditions close to equilibrium. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 44(55), 29123-29131. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2019.04.036

A model has been derived for the magnesium hydrogenation reaction at conditions close to equilibrium. The reaction mechanism involves an adsorption element, where the model is an extension of the Langmuir adsorption model. The concept of site availab...

Integrated multi-assay culture model for stem cell chondrogenic differentiation (2019)
Journal Article
Prosser, A., Scotchford, C., Roberts, G., Grant, D., & Sottile, V. (2019). Integrated multi-assay culture model for stem cell chondrogenic differentiation. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 20(4), Article 951. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms20040951

Recent osteochondral repair strategies highlight the promise of mesenchymal progenitors, an accessible stem cell source with osteogenic and chondrogenic potential, used in conjunction with biomaterials for tissue engineering. For this, regenerative m... Read More about Integrated multi-assay culture model for stem cell chondrogenic differentiation.
