Mechanistic Studies of Interfacial Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer to Molecularly Defined Surface Sites by Lewis, Noah B.

“…With these observations we construct a mechanistic model in which I-PCET is not a single step, but a multi-step reaction sequence in which elementary I-PCET is gated by an ion exchange reaction between proton donor/acceptor species and proton-neutral supporting electrolyte at the electrode-electrolyte interface. …”

Regression assisted evolutionary optimization by Ayyappan, Murugan

“…As some industrial applications involve complex calculations to evaluate a single solution, optimization takes an intractably long time to complete. The aim of this project is to reduce the number of these evaluations during an optimization run, which would in turn reduce the computational time of the evolutionary optimization. …”
