Parameter inference to motivate asymptotic model reduction: an analysis of the gibberellin biosynthesis pathway (2018)
Journal Article
Band, L. R., & Preston, S. P. (2018). Parameter inference to motivate asymptotic model reduction: an analysis of the gibberellin biosynthesis pathway. Journal of Theoretical Biology, 457, 66-78. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtbi.2018.05.028

Developing effective strategies to use models in conjunction with experimental data is essential to understand the dynamics of biological regulatory networks. In this study, we demonstrate how combining parameter estimation with asymptotic analysis c...

Process parameter optimisation of laser clad iron based alloy: Predictive models of deposition efficiency, porosity and dilution (2018)
Journal Article
Reddy, L., Preston, S. P., Shipway, P., Davis, C., & Hussain, T. (2018). Process parameter optimisation of laser clad iron based alloy: Predictive models of deposition efficiency, porosity and dilution. Surface and Coatings Technology, 349, 198-207. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surfcoat.2018.05.054

As a candidate coating material for heat-exchanger surfaces in commercial power generation boiler, an amorphous/glass forming Fe-Cr-B alloy NanoSteel SHS 7170 was deposited by a 2 kW fibre laser onto a boiler grade steel substrate (15Mo3). A comprehe... Read More about Process parameter optimisation of laser clad iron based alloy: Predictive models of deposition efficiency, porosity and dilution.

Three-dimensional plant architecture and sunlit-shaded patterns: a stochastic model of light dynamics in canopies (2018)
Journal Article
Retkute, R., Townsend, A. J., Murchie, E. H., Jensen, O. E., & Preston, S. P. (2018). Three-dimensional plant architecture and sunlit-shaded patterns: a stochastic model of light dynamics in canopies. Annals of Botany, 122(2), 291–302. https://doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcy067

Background and Aims Diurnal changes in solar position and intensity combined with the structural complexity of plant architecture result in highly variable and dynamic light patterns within the plant canopy. This affects productivity through the comp... Read More about Three-dimensional plant architecture and sunlit-shaded patterns: a stochastic model of light dynamics in canopies.
