Journal Article
Pavlovskaya, G., Six, J. S., Meersman, T., Gopinathan, N., & Rigby, S. P. (2015). NMR imaging of low pressure, gas-phase transport in packed beds using hyperpolarized xenon-129. AIChE Journal, 61(11), 4013-4019. https://doi.org/10.1002/aic.14929

© 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers. Gas-phase magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used to investigate heterogeneity in mass transport in a packed bed of commercial, alumina, catalyst supports. Hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI enables study... Read More about NMR imaging of low pressure, gas-phase transport in packed beds using hyperpolarized xenon-129.

Combining mercury thermoporometry with integrated gas sorption and mercury porosimetry to improve accuracy of pore-size distributions for disordered solids (2014)
Journal Article

Treatment effects on the compressive strength of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) at 7 days
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Helmi, M., Hall, M. R., & Rigby, S. P. Treatment effects on the compressive strength of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) at 7 days. Presented at 33rd Cement and Concrete Science Conference

Reactive powder concrete (RPC) is produced by controlling three main factors: additives to mix composition, pre-setting application of pressure, and post-setting heating. Densification of the mortar is achieved by the application of pressure (either... Read More about Treatment effects on the compressive strength of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) at 7 days.
