LES of hypersonic flow over a 3D single-fin (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

LES of hypersonic flow passing a 3D single-fin at Mach 5 and Re∞=3.7×107/m was conducted using a newly developed 7th-order low-dissipation monotonicity-preserving NS solver with dynamic Smagorinsky subgrid model. The simulation captures salient flow... Read More about LES of hypersonic flow over a 3D single-fin.

μAngelo: A Novel System for Robot-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Influence of exposure guidelines on the design of on-body inductive power transfer (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Designers of on-body health sensing devices with inductive power transfer (IPT) face a number of trade-offs. Safe exposure limits should be maintained, and protective housing and padding are generally needed; however, these impose compromises on the...

Towards model-based robot behaviour adaptation: Successful human-robot collaboration in tense and stressful situations (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2015 IEEE. In a demanding environment such as search and rescue, where human-robot collaboration provides potential benefits, understanding complex human behaviour will promote greater success. We propose that robots need to be equipped with embodi... Read More about Towards model-based robot behaviour adaptation: Successful human-robot collaboration in tense and stressful situations.

Testing of avionics (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this talk, Dr Steve Wright discusses some of the tools and methods used for performing Hardware-in-the-Loop testing of aircraft avionics. The talk will discuss the objectives of avionics test, how these tests are performed, and the equipment neede... Read More about Testing of avionics.

Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Incidence of fractures is steadily increasing and is expected that in 2025, Germany will have the largest number of fractures per year in Europe (≈928,000), followed by the UK (≈682,000) (Hernlund 2013). This work is concerned with distal-femur-fract... Read More about Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery.

Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Many surgical procedures are now performed using the techniques of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), in which the surgeon manipulates instruments inserted into the patients through small incisions. In MIS, the surgeon has no direct contact with inter... Read More about Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery.

Model based testing of avionics (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A presentation on the use of modelling and simulation, and its role in the testing process for manned aircraft avionics.

Investigation into transient SFO, FFO, VFTO overvoltage characteristics for typical gas insulated substations (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Overvoltage characteristics of typical single bus, double bus and one and a half bus GIS configurations under transient SFO, FFO and VFTO conditions are studied. The transient conditions are simulated through load rejections, lightning and the openi...

Emotional engineering – the story of Robots vs Animals (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We are told that engineering is in crisis, with double the number of engineers needed by 2020. Only 7% of the UK’s engineering workforce is female, so many outreach programmes now focus on girls as the next generation. However, engineering is portra...
