Confirming the need for virus disinfection in municipal subsurface drinking water supplies
Emelko, Monica B.; Schmidt, Philip J.; Borchardt, Mark A. (Elsevier, 2019-06)Enteric viruses pose the greatest acute human health risks associated with subsurface drinking water supplies, yet quantitative risk assessment tools have rarely been used to develop health-based targets for virus treatment ... -
Non-linear, non-monotonic effect of nano-scale roughness on particle deposition in absence of an energy barrier: Experiments and modeling
Jin, Chao; Glawdel, Tomasz; Ren, Carolyn L.; Emelko, Monica B. (Springer Nature, 2015-12-11)Deposition of colloidal- and nano-scale particles on surfaces is critical to numerous natural and engineered environmental, health, and industrial applications ranging from drinking water treatment to semi-conductor ... -
Recognizing Structural Nonidentifiability: When Experiments Do Not Provide Information About Important Parameters and Misleading Models Can Still Have Great Fit
Schmidt, Philip J.; Emelko, Monica B.; Thompson, Mary E. (Wiley, 2020-02)In the quest to model various phenomena, the foundational importance of parameter identifiability to sound statistical modeling may be less well appreciated than goodness of fit. Identifiability concerns the quality of ...
