Research Interests

Collaboration
Dr. G. Edwards is collaborating with Prof. E. Siores at the Centre for Materials Research Innovation, University of Bolton on a project looking at how variable frequency microwave can be used to sterilize food products. A research bid has been submitted to the EU. Prof. Siores is leading the experimental aspects of this work. Dr. Edwards is directing the computational electromagnetic modeling effort for this project. The FEMLAB software package, which employs the finite element method, is being used to simulate the dielectric heating of bacteria exposed to variable frequency microwave radiation.
