Cellulose as a Pore Former in Electroless Co-Deposited Anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Turnbull, R., Davidson, A., Shearer, N., & Wilson, C. (2016). Cellulose as a Pore Former in Electroless Co-Deposited Anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells. In Proceedings of the 12th EUROPEAN SOFC & SOE FORUM (1-11)

A study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of cellulose as a pore former in the manufacture of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) anodes using Electroless Co-Deposition (ECD). Previous work into the use of ECD to produce SOFC anodes has found tha... Read More about Cellulose as a Pore Former in Electroless Co-Deposited Anodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells.

On the Influence of Surfactant Incorporation during Electroless Nickel Plating (2012)
Journal Article
Nwosu, N., Davidson, A., Hindle, C., & Barker, M. (2012). On the Influence of Surfactant Incorporation during Electroless Nickel Plating. Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 51(16), 5635-5644. https://doi.org/10.1021/ie202625n

The effects of surfactants on the dynamics and characteristics of plain and composite electroless nickel plating (ENP) are highlighted and discussed herein. An outline of the rudiments of surfactants and some underlying selection criteria is presente... Read More about On the Influence of Surfactant Incorporation during Electroless Nickel Plating.

An investigation of possible improvements in accuracy of regressions between diffuse and global solar irradiation. (2007)
Journal Article
Clarke, P., Munawwar, S., Davidson, A., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2007). An investigation of possible improvements in accuracy of regressions between diffuse and global solar irradiation. Building Service Engineering Research and Technology, 28, 189-197. https://doi.org/10.1177/0143624407076907

Horizontal hourly and sub-hourly diffuse and beam irradiance are required for the estimation of global irradiance on a given tilted surface. This information is used by engineers and architects for various solar energy applications and also to calcul...
