Bio-inspired knee joint: Trends in the hardware systems development (2021)
Journal Article

The knee joint is a complex structure that plays a significant role in the human lower limb for locomotion activities in daily living. However, we are still not quite there yet where we can replicate the functions of the knee bones and the attached l...

Delamination suppression in tapered unidirectional laminates with multiple ply drops using a tape scarfing technique (2021)
Journal Article

Composite laminate thickness tapering is essential for weight efficient structures. This is achieved by terminating specific plies, but these can in turn act as sites for delamination initiation. One area of importance is the spacing between adjacent... Read More about Delamination suppression in tapered unidirectional laminates with multiple ply drops using a tape scarfing technique.

Expanding depth and meaning within urban design processes through the application of complexity and evolutionary theories (2021)
Journal Article

Previous research has established the value of regarding cities as complex systems, and as systems which will evolve over time. The research reported in this paper concerns the development of an approach to urban design and management which recognise...

Adaptive neural control of a class of uncertain state and input-delayed systems with input magnitude and rate constraints (2021)
Journal Article

This article aims at proposing an adaptive neural control strategy for a class of nonlinear time-delay systems with input delays and unknown control directions. Different from previous researches that investigated delays and constraints separately, t... Read More about Adaptive neural control of a class of uncertain state and input-delayed systems with input magnitude and rate constraints.

Robot narratives (2021)
Book Chapter

There is evidence that humans understand how the world goes through narrative. We discuss what it might mean for embodied robots to understand the world, and communicate that understanding, in a similar manner. We suggest an architecture for adding n... Read More about Robot narratives.

Electrosynthesis, modulation, and self-driven electroseparation in microbial fuel cells (2021)
Journal Article

Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) represents a sustainable platform that converts waste into resources, using microorganisms within an electrochemical cell. Traditionally, MES refers to the oxidation/reduction of a reactant at the electrode surface wi...

Targeting global environmental challenges by the means of novel multimodal transport: Concept of operations (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Novel modes of transport form the basis of environmentally friendly and economically efficient transport system of the future. This paper introduces the feasibility study of a Dock to Dock (D2D) use case, combining aspects of route development and in...

Protocol for a national cohort study to explore the long-term clinical and patient-reported outcomes and cost-effectiveness of implant-based and autologous breast reconstruction after mastectomy for breast cancer: The Brighter Study (2021)
Journal Article

Introduction Breast reconstruction (BR) is offered to improve quality of life for women with breast cancer undergoing mastectomy. As most women will be long-Term breast cancer survivors, high-quality information regarding the long-Term outcomes of di...

Observing and tracking the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The subtropical waters between Hawaii and California are currently infested with an accumulation of plastic estimated to be twice the area of Texas, otherwise known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP). This paper presents a novel CubeSat missio... Read More about Observing and tracking the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

Quantitative potato tuber phenotyping by 3D imaging (2021)
Journal Article

The accurate phenotyping of the external quality attributes of potato tubers is important in potato breeding. Currently, the assessment of potato tuber shape, together with eye density and depth, are based on subjective naked eye visual evaluation. H...
