Residential demand from real residences can be resource intensive to collect. There is need to generate synthetic residential load in energy research, and new approaches are welcome. Most of the simulation models of synthetic residential load that ou... Read More about A systems dynamics approach to the bottom-up simulation of residential appliance load.

Market mapping for improved cookstoves: barriers and opportunities in East Africa (2019)
Journal Article

The East African region has been a hub for the development and marketing of improved cookstoves from the 1980s. However, there are differences in the rates of uptake of stoves between Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. To investigate, we use a participatory...

Challenges to the industrial melt-processing of conductive plastics (2019)
Journal Article
Choong, G. Y. H., De Focatiis, D. S. A., Lidgett, M. J., Thornton, M. J., & Clifford, M. J. (2019). Challenges to the industrial melt-processing of conductive plastics. AIP Conference Proceedings, 2055, 090003-1 to 090003-5. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5084881

In this work, we investigate the relationship between the timescales available for polymer mobility during processing and post-processing and the electrical resistivity of melt-processed thermoplastics filled with carbon nanoparticles. Post-process a... Read More about Challenges to the industrial melt-processing of conductive plastics.
