Improving the design of industrial microwave processing systems through prediction of the dielectric properties of complex multi-layered materials (2015)
Journal Article
Katrib, J., Folorunso, O., Dodds, C., Dimitrakis, G., & Kingman, S. W. (2015). Improving the design of industrial microwave processing systems through prediction of the dielectric properties of complex multi-layered materials. Journal of Materials Science, 50(23), 7591-7599. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10853-015-9319-z

Rigorous design of industrial microwave processing systems requires in-depth knowledge of the dielectric properties of the materials to be processed. These values are not easy to measure, particularly when a material is multi-layered containing multi...

Understanding the scabbling of concrete using microwave energy (2015)
Journal Article
Buttress, A., Jones, D., Dodds, C., Dimitrakis, G., Dawson, A., & Kingman, S. (in press). Understanding the scabbling of concrete using microwave energy. Cement and Concrete Research, 75, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cemconres.2015.04.009

This paper reports on the use of microwave energy to scabble concrete. While the technique is not new, little information exists relating to the controllability of the process, the effect of different types of concrete and the performance and durabil...
