Adaptive fuzzy Gaussian mixture models for shape approximation in Robot Grasping (2019)
Journal Article

Robotic grasping has always been a challenging task for both service and industrial robots. The ability of grasp planning for novel objects is necessary for a robot to autonomously perform grasps under unknown environments. In this work, we consider...

Improved human-robot collaborative control of redundant robot for teleoperated minimally invasive surgery (2019)
Journal Article

© 2016 IEEE. An improved human-robot collaborative control scheme is proposed in a teleoperated minimally invasive surgery scenario, based on a hierarchical operational space formulation of a seven-degree-of-freedom redundant robot. Redundancy is exp... Read More about Improved human-robot collaborative control of redundant robot for teleoperated minimally invasive surgery.

An improved adaptive online neural control for robot manipulator systems using integral Barrier Lyapunov functions (2019)
Journal Article

Conventional Neural Network (NN) control for robots uses radial basis function (RBF) and for n-link robot with online control, the number of nodes and weighting matrix increases exponentially, which requires a number of calculations to be performed w...

Understanding attitudes to priorities at side road junctions (2019)
Journal Article

Junctions are places of interaction and hence conflict for all road users. Two thirds of all collisions in built up areas occur at junctions, with pedestrians and cyclists being most at risk. The aim of the research is to investigate the attitudes to... Read More about Understanding attitudes to priorities at side road junctions.

Enhanced teleoperation performance using hybrid control and virtual fixture (2019)
Journal Article

To develop secure, natural and effective teleoperation, the perception of the slave plays a key role for the interaction of a human operator with the environment. By sensing slave information, the human operator can choose the correct operation in a... Read More about Enhanced teleoperation performance using hybrid control and virtual fixture.

The importance of user perspective in the evolution of MaaS (2019)
Journal Article

The rapid emergence of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) into the transport sector’s lexicon has brought with it an air of expectation that suggests a future mobility revolution. This paper focusses on the user perspective and offers a deepening of socio-... Read More about The importance of user perspective in the evolution of MaaS.

Development of a flexible and modular metrology system for measuring complex surfaces (2018)
Thesis

The demand for customised optical devices is increasing tremendously. Such optical devices do not employ traditional designs like planar, spherical, or even aspherical shapes. Instead, modern lenses exhibit free-form surfaces with a large variety of... Read More about Development of a flexible and modular metrology system for measuring complex surfaces.

Morpholino Oligonucleotide Cross-Linked Hydrogels as Portable Optical Oligonucleotide Biosensors (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 American Chemical Society. Morpholino Oligonucleotides (MOs), an uncharged DNA analogue, are functionalized with an acrylamide moiety and incorporated into polymer hydrogels as responsive cross-links for microRNA sequence detection. The MO cro... Read More about Morpholino Oligonucleotide Cross-Linked Hydrogels as Portable Optical Oligonucleotide Biosensors.
