Three unobtrusive domestic occupancy measurement technologies under qualitative review (2013)
Journal Article
Naghiyev, E., Gillott, M., & WILSON, R. (2014). Three unobtrusive domestic occupancy measurement technologies under qualitative review. Energy and Buildings, 69, 507-514. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2013.11.033

Almost one third of the UK's total energy is consumed by the domestic sector. Occupancy measurement could have the potential to save significant amounts of that energy, either instantly via a home automation system or retrospectively via post-occupan...

The physical meaning of charge extraction by linearly increasing voltage transients from organic solar cells (2013)
Journal Article
Hanfland, R., Fischer, M. A., Brütting, W., Würfel, U., & MacKenzie, R. C. I. (2013). The physical meaning of charge extraction by linearly increasing voltage transients from organic solar cells. Applied Physics Letters, 103(6), 063904. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4818267

Carrier mobility in organic solar cells is almost exclusively determined with the Charge Extraction by Linearly Increasing Voltage (CELIV) technique; indeed much of our understanding of the recombination and charge transport mechanisms in organic sol...

Interpreting the density of states extracted from organic solar cells using transient photocurrent measurements (2013)
Journal Article
MacKenzie, R. C. I., Shuttle, C. G., Dibb, G. F., Treat, N., von Hauff, E., Robb, M. J., …Nelson, J. (2013). Interpreting the density of states extracted from organic solar cells using transient photocurrent measurements. Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 117(24), 12407-12414. https://doi.org/10.1021/jp4010828

The energetic distribution of trapped carrier states (DoS) in organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices is a key device parameter which controls carrier mobility and the recombination rate; as such, it can ultimately limit device efficiency. Recent studies... Read More about Interpreting the density of states extracted from organic solar cells using transient photocurrent measurements.

Identifying road defect information from smartphones (2013)
Journal Article
Byrne, M., Parry, T., Isola, R., & Dawson, A. (2013). Identifying road defect information from smartphones. Road and Transport Research Journal, 22(1), 39-50

Defect repair, for example potholes, is one of the most common and expensive tasks of road maintenance. One of the difficulties of this form of asset management is in identifying these defects early. Although a defect may take many years to initiate,... Read More about Identifying road defect information from smartphones.

Examining effects of climatic factors on flexible pavement performance and service life (2013)
Journal Article
Qiao, Y., Flintsch, G., Dawson, A., & Parry, T. (2013). Examining effects of climatic factors on flexible pavement performance and service life. Transportation Research Record, 2349(1), 100-107. https://doi.org/10.3141/2349-12

The potential risk of climate change raises interest in how it may affect the deterioration rates of flexible pavements and how pavement service lives would be altered as a consequence. Previous studies demonstrated that temperature is the most influ... Read More about Examining effects of climatic factors on flexible pavement performance and service life.
