The effects of carbon electrode surface properties on bacteria attachment and start up time of microbial fuel cells (2013)
Journal Article

Surface roughness, porosity and contact angles of different carbon paper materials (TORAY paper with PTFE from 0% to 60% of and SGL paper with 0% and 20% of PTFE) suitable as electrodes in microbial fuel cells were investigated. The changes of contac... Read More about The effects of carbon electrode surface properties on bacteria attachment and start up time of microbial fuel cells.

Additive tooling for tube hydroforming (2013)
Journal Article

The use of tube hydroforming in manufacturing is increasing in popularity, particularly in automotive applications where it offers numerous cost and well-recognized performance advantages over conventional stamping and welding processes. In this pape... Read More about Additive tooling for tube hydroforming.

A conceptual model for sustainable product design (2013)
Journal Article

This paper proposes a conceptual model to support sustainable product design. The approach develops an integrated multimodal decision making model which is to be introduced early in the design process, as the basis for the integration of the life cyc...

Using nasal curves matching for expression robust 3D nose recognition (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The development of 3D face recognition algorithms that
are robust to variations in expression has been a challenge
for researchers over the past decade. One approach to this
problem is to utilize the most stable parts on the face surface. The nasa... Read More about Using nasal curves matching for expression robust 3D nose recognition.

Numerical modelling of the effect of ply block thickness in Over-height Compact Tension (OCT) tests (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Energy production and sanitation improvement using microbial fuel cells (2013)
Journal Article

This study builds on the previous work of urine utilisation and uses small-scale microbial fuel cells (MFCs), working both as individual units in cascade or collectively as a stack, to utilise artificial urine. Artificial urine was prepared at concen... Read More about Energy production and sanitation improvement using microbial fuel cells.

Synchronized control with neuro-agents for leader-follower based multiple robotic manipulators (2013)
Journal Article

In this paper, a new neural network enhanced synchronized control approach is proposed for multiple robotic manipulators systems (MRMS) based on the leader-follower network communication topology. The justification of introducing two adaptive Radial... Read More about Synchronized control with neuro-agents for leader-follower based multiple robotic manipulators.

A comparison of evaluation measures for emotion recognition in dimensional space (2013)

Integrated capacitated lot sizing and scheduling problems in a flexible flow line (2013)
Thesis

The lot sizing and scheduling problem in a Flexible Flow Line (FFL) has extensive real-world applications in many industries. An FFL consists of several production stages in series with parallel machines at each stage. The decisions to be taken are t...
