Microbial fuel cell stack performance enhancement through carbon veil anode modification with activated carbon powder (2020)
Journal Article

The chemical energy contained in urine can be efficiently extracted into direct electricity by Microbial Fuel Cell stacks to reach usable power levels for practical implementation and a decentralised power source in remote locations. Herein, a novel... Read More about Microbial fuel cell stack performance enhancement through carbon veil anode modification with activated carbon powder.

Image segmentation of underfloor scenes using a mask regions convolutional neural network with two-stage transfer learning (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 Elsevier B.V. Enclosed spaces are common in built structures but pose a challenge to many forms of manual or robotic surveying and maintenance tasks. Part of this challenge is to train robot systems to understand their environment without huma...

A composite feedback approach to stabilize nonholonomic systems with time varying time delays and nonlinear disturbances (2020)
Journal Article

In this work, we propose a robust stabilizer for nonholonomic systems with time varying time delays and nonlinear disturbances. The proposed approach implements a composite nonlinear feedback structure in which a linear controller is designed to yiel...

Design for localisation: A case study in the development and implementation of a low head propeller turbine in Nepal (2020)
Journal Article

This paper proposes a methodology for “design for localisation” that addresses the challenge of designing a product for local manufacture and use, whilst considering the production process availability and the context of the local geographic area. Th... Read More about Design for localisation: A case study in the development and implementation of a low head propeller turbine in Nepal.
