Large-eddy simulation of shock-wave/turbulent boundary-layer interactions and its control using Sparkjet (2016)
Journal Article

Large-eddy simulations (LES) of the oblique impinging shock-wave/flat plate boundary layer interactions at Mach=2.3 and Reδ=20000 were carried out to investigate the underlying flow physics associated with flow separation and shock unsteadiness. The... Read More about Large-eddy simulation of shock-wave/turbulent boundary-layer interactions and its control using Sparkjet.

EvoBot: An open-source, modular liquid handling robot for nurturing microbial fuel cells (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Liquid handling robots are rarely used in the domain of artificial life. In this field, transitory behaviours of nonequilibrium man-made systems are studied and need an automatic monitoring and logging of results. In addition, artificial life experi...

Open access statistics resources (2016)
Journal Article

In this paper we illustrate an open access statistics resource related to the statistical activities involved in choosing and carrying out an appropriate one sample test for location (mean or median) on a randomly generated data set. The development... Read More about Open access statistics resources.

Iron based catalysts from novel low-cost organic precursors for enhanced oxygen reduction reaction in neutral media microbial fuel cells (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Royal Society of Chemistry. Two iron-based platinum group metal-free catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) were synthesized from novel and low cost organic precursors named niclosamide and ricobendazole. These catalysts have be... Read More about Iron based catalysts from novel low-cost organic precursors for enhanced oxygen reduction reaction in neutral media microbial fuel cells.

Self-feeding paper based biofuel cell/self-powered hybrid μ-supercapacitor integrated system (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Elsevier B.V. For the first time, a paper based enzymatic fuel cell is used as self-recharged supercapacitor. In this supercapacitive enzymatic fuel cell (SC-EFC), the supercapacitive features of the electrodes are exploited to demonstrate hig...

Supercapacitive microbial fuel cell: Characterization and analysis for improved charge storage/delivery performance (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Author(s) Supercapacitive microbial fuel cells with various anode and cathode dimensions were investigated in order to determine the effect on cell capacitance and delivered power quality. The cathode size was shown to be the limiting comp... Read More about Supercapacitive microbial fuel cell: Characterization and analysis for improved charge storage/delivery performance.

Benchmarking assessment for technology readiness in SpaceBot (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. The German SpaceBot Cup is a robotics competition that has its first edition in 2013. A second edition is expected by the end of 2015. The SpaceBot application scenario involves typical exploration tasks carried out on a planetary surfac... Read More about Benchmarking assessment for technology readiness in SpaceBot.

Predicting debonding and delamination in adhesively bonded T-joints (2016)

Design of a multi-DOF cable-driven mechanism of a miniature serial manipulator for robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

While multi-fingered robotic hands have been developed for decades, none has been used for surgical operations. MicroAngelo is an anthropomorphic master-slave system for tele-operated robot-assisted surgery. As part of this system, this paper focuses...
