Thermal imaging as a tool for process modelling: application to a flight rotary kiln

The rotary kiln is widely used for the thermal treatment of granular materials in various industries. A better understanding of the heat transfer phenomena, both inside and outside of the industrial rotary kiln, will lead to developing sustainable production techniques, such as materials recycling and heat waste recovery. The present paper summaris...

Accounting for biological variability and sampling scale: a multi-scale approach to building epidemic models.

Published in Journal of the Royal Society, Interface

When one considers the fine-scale spread of an epidemic, one usually knows the sources of biological variability and their qualitative effect on the epidemic process. The force of infection on a susceptible unit depends on the locations and the strengths of the infectious units, and on the environmental and intrinsic factors affecting infectivity a...
