Negative differential resistance associated with hot phonons (2012)
Journal Article
Dyson, A., & Ridley, B. K. (2012). Negative differential resistance associated with hot phonons. Journal of applied physics, 112(6), 063707. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4754012

We predict the existence of a hot-phonon negative differential resistance (NDR) in GaN. We show that this is a consequence of a wave-vector dependence of lifetime caused by the effect of coupled plasmon-phonons. Anti-screened long-wavelength modes ha...

Comparing the distribution of strains with the distribution of bone tissue in a human mandible: a finite element study (2012)
Journal Article
Gröning, F., Fagan, M., & O'Higgins, P. (2013). Comparing the distribution of strains with the distribution of bone tissue in a human mandible: a finite element study. Anatomical Record: Advances in Integrative Anatomy and Evolutionary Biology, 296(1), 9-18. https://doi.org/10.1002/ar.22597

Comparative anatomy and experimental studies suggest that the mass and distribution of tissue within a bone is adapted to the strains the bone experiences during function. Finite element analysis is a powerful tool that can be used to investigate thi...
