Comparing terracotta and earthenware for multiple functionalities in microbial fuel cells (2013)
Journal Article
Winfield, J., Greenman, J., Huson, D., & Ieropoulos, I. (2013). Comparing terracotta and earthenware for multiple functionalities in microbial fuel cells. Bioprocess and Biosystems Engineering, 36(12), 1913-1921. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00449-013-0967-6

The properties of earthenware and terracotta were investigated in terms of structural integrity and ion conductivity, in two microbial fuel cell (MFC) designs. Parameters such as wall thickness (4, 8, 18 mm), porosity and cathode hydration were analy...

Three-dimensional printed ceramics for concept modelling and bespoke production (2013)
Journal Article
Huson, D. (2013). Three-dimensional printed ceramics for concept modelling and bespoke production. Journal of Imaging Science and Technology, 57(4), 40401-40401

Many ceramic manufacturing companies use 3D CAD software and 3D printing technologies to produce design concept models for evaluation, although the value to the design process is limited due to the type of materials that can be printed, conventional...

3D printing of self-glazing ceramic materials: An investigation inspired by ancient Egyptian technology (2013)
Book Chapter
Huson, D. (2013). 3D printing of self-glazing ceramic materials: An investigation inspired by ancient Egyptian technology. In B. Lozo, & F. Masahiko (Eds.), NIP29 29th International Conference on Digital Printing Technologies Digital Fabrication 2013 Technical Program and Proceedings (14-17). USA: Society for Imaging Science and Technology

The inspiration and background research for this project is based upon Egyptian Faience because there is an interesting and coincidental synergy between the material properties of ancient Egyptian Faience and the material requirement for the successf...
