Electrochemical behavior of stainless steel anodes in membraneless microbial fuel cells (2014)
Journal Article

AISI 304 stainless steel was studied as cost-effective tough anodes in membraneless single chamber microbial fuel cells (SCMFCs) fed with wastewater and sodium acetate, and compared with traditional carbon cloth (CC) anodes in terms of power generati...

Cobalt porphyrin-based material as methanol tolerant cathode in single chamber microbial fuel cells (SCMFCs) (2014)
Journal Article

This study focused on the development of novel cathode material based on the pyrolysis of [meso-tetrakis(2-thienyl)porphyrinato]Co(II) (CoTTP) for use in single chamber microbial fuel cells (SCMFCs) to treat wastewater containing methanol. The cathod... Read More about Cobalt porphyrin-based material as methanol tolerant cathode in single chamber microbial fuel cells (SCMFCs).

Seeing by touch: Evaluation of a soft biologically-inspired artificial fingertip in real-time active touch (2014)
Journal Article

Effective tactile sensing for artificial platforms remains an open issue in robotics. This study investigates the performance of a soft biologically-inspired artificial fingertip in active exploration tasks. The fingertip sensor replicates the mechan...

Edge-based representation and recognition for surgically altered face images (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Basically, plastic surgery procedure introduces skin texture variations between images of the same person (intra-face) thereby making recognition more difficult than in normal scenario. Since the shape of significant face features such as eyes, nose,... Read More about Edge-based representation and recognition for surgically altered face images.

Acoustic emission-based study to characterize the initiation of delamination in composite materials (2014)
Journal Article

© The Author(s) 2014. Among the failure modes of composite materials, delamination is the most striking one. It may result in the reduction of stiffness and long-term performance of composite materials. The initiation stage is very crucial in delamin...

Braess’ paradox in asymmetrical traffic networks (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Braess’ paradox illustrates situations when adding a new link to a transport network might lead to an equilibrium state in which travel times of users will increase. Braess’ paradox has been studied mainly in the context of the classical problem intr... Read More about Braess’ paradox in asymmetrical traffic networks.

Thixoforging of wrought aluminum thin plates with microchannels (2014)
Journal Article

A direct die-filling thixoforging method is designed to fabricate aluminum thin plates with a pattern of microchannels in a single forming operation. Extruded AA2024 and AA7075 wrought aluminum billets are used. A recrystallization and partial remelt... Read More about Thixoforging of wrought aluminum thin plates with microchannels.

Predicting film cooling performance of trailing–edge cutback turbine blades by detached–eddy simulation (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper describes numerical studies of the film cooling performance of cutback trailing-edge gas turbine blades using the detached eddy simulation (DES) approach, in order to improve results obtained by industry standard steady RANS and unsteady R...

Design and optimisation of composite corrugated skin for a span morphing wing (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The concept of span morphing aircraft is attracting a lot of attention due to the demands to enhance flight performance and control authority. Corrugated laminates provide a good solution for the skin of a span morphing wing due to their extremely an...
