Curvature‐Tuned Friction at Electrified Ionic Liquid Interfaces
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Graphene curvature plays a key role in friction electrotunability at single‐asperity contacts lubricated by ionic liquids. A 9 nm radius yields stronger tunability than larger radii, with distinct friction coefficients at low and high loads indicating a shift in the slippage plane.

Sustaining software process improvement (SPI) in software-developing organisations
, 2017 This thesis aims to extend prior research on Software Process Improvement (SPI) by examining the issue of sustainment i.e. what organisational factors influence the sustainment of SPI? It uses insights from prior literature-based research on process improvement and multiple longitudinal case studies to generate a model of organisational context factors

COFs on MOFs: Layer‐by‐Layer Synthesis of MOF@COF Nanoparticles with Synergistic Adsorption
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A layer‐by‐layer strategy enables the growth of crystalline covalent organic framework (COF) shells on metal–organic framework nanoparticles, creating core–shell structures with tunable porosity. Ordered interstitial mesopores are formed during shell growth, which are connected with the COF's intrinsic micropores, thereby enhancing water sorption. This
