Diffusion of multi-generational high-technology products. (2013)
Journal Article
Shi, L., Fernandes, K., & Chumnumpan, P. (2014). Diffusion of multi-generational high-technology products. Technovation, 34(3), 162-176. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.technovation.2013.11.008

Previous multi-generational product diffusion (MGPD) models were developed based on the diffusion patterns at that time, but may not be adopted in today's cases. By incorporating the effect of customers' forward-looking behaviour, this paper offers a... Read More about Diffusion of multi-generational high-technology products..

An optical platform for the production, trapping, manipulation and visualization of ultra-low interfacial tension emulsion droplets (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Hargreaves, A. L., Kirby, A. K., Bain, C. D., Love, G. D., Bolognesi, G., Ces, O., …Ward, A. D. (2013). An optical platform for the production, trapping, manipulation and visualization of ultra-low interfacial tension emulsion droplets. In K. Dholakia, & G. C. Spalding (Eds.), . https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2027105

We discuss the design, implementation and performance of a novel platform for the production and optical control of ultra-low interfacial tension droplets in the 1-10 micron regime. A custom-designed, integrated microfluidic system allows the product...

Dynamic pricing models for used products in remanufacturing with lost-sales and uncertain quality. (2013)
Journal Article
Xiong, Y., Li, G., Zhou, Y., Fernandes, K., Harrison, R., & Xiong, Z. (2013). Dynamic pricing models for used products in remanufacturing with lost-sales and uncertain quality. International Journal of Production Economics, 147(Part C), 678-688. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpe.2013.04.025

In this paper, we investigate the remanufacturing problem of pricing single-class used products (cores) in the face of random price-dependent returns and random demand. Specifically, we propose a dynamic pricing policy for the cores and then model th...

Internal Flows and Particle Transport Inside Picoliter Droplets of Binary Solvent Mixtures (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Talbot, E., Berson, A., Yang, L., & Bain, C. (2013). Internal Flows and Particle Transport Inside Picoliter Droplets of Binary Solvent Mixtures.

The flows in evaporating droplets of binary mixtures are much more complicated than single solvent systems. Solutal Marangoni flows are generated due to differential evaporation of components. High-speed imaging techniques are used to visualize how i... Read More about Internal Flows and Particle Transport Inside Picoliter Droplets of Binary Solvent Mixtures.
