Effect of stiffeners on nature of post-critical deformations of thin-walled composite aircraft structures: A combined numerical-experimental study (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. This paper presents results of numerical and experimental examination of thin-walled structures which model certain parts of aircraft structures subject to bending and torsion. The considered type of load and deformation corresponds to t...

Analytical solution of two-phase spherical Stefan problem by heat polynomials and integral error functions (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 Author(s). On the base of the Holm model, we represent two phase spherical Stefan problem and its analytical solution, which can serve as a mathematical model for diverse thermo-physical phenomena in electrical contacts. Suggested solution is... Read More about Analytical solution of two-phase spherical Stefan problem by heat polynomials and integral error functions.

Garment level power distribution for wearables using inductive power transfer (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. Wearable and smart devices are gaining in popularity, with many users now using multiple devices. Each of these devices requires individual charging and power maintenance. This paper proposes power sharing between multiple wearables to a... Read More about Garment level power distribution for wearables using inductive power transfer.

Control of mobile robot for remote medical examination: Design concepts and users' feedback from experimental studies (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2016 IEEE. In this article we discuss movement control of a ReMeDi medical mobile robot from the user perspective. The control is essentially limited to the level of operator actions where the operator is a member of a nursing staff. Two working mo...

Scrambled statistics: What are the chances of finding multi-yolk eggs? (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Royal Statistical Society Journalists ask a lot of questions of statisticians, but some are more bizarre than others. Statistical ambassador Deirdre Toher recounts one such experience.

Trimming simulation of forming metal sheets isogeometric models by using NURBS surfaces (2016)
Journal Article

Some metal sheets forming processes need trimming in a final stage for achieving the net-shape specification and for removing micro-cracks and irregularities. In numerical simulation, since the exact final edge location is a priori unknown in the ori...

A decision support system for strategic maintenance planning in offshore wind farms (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Elsevier Ltd This paper presents a Decision Support System (DSS) for maintenance cost optimisation at an Offshore Wind Farm (OWF). The DSS is designed for use by multiple stakeholders in the OWF sector with the overall goal of informing mainte...

Motor primitive-based control for lower-limb exoskeletons (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Assistive technology forecasts better autonomy for people with lifelong disabilities and for the elderly facing motor decline. As the population of developed countries is becoming greyer, there is thus a high probability of observing a significant in...

2D and 3D computer vision analysis of gaze, gender and age (2016)
Thesis

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) has been an active research area for over four decades. Research studies and commercial designs in this area have been largely facilitated by the visual modality which brings diversified functionality and improved usa...

Creep deformation mechanisms in a γ titanium aluminide (2016)
Journal Article

Titanium aluminides (TiAl) are considered as potential alternatives to replace nickel-based alloys of greater density for selected components within future gas turbine aero-engines. This is attributed to the high specific strength as well as the good... Read More about Creep deformation mechanisms in a γ titanium aluminide.
