An experimental investigation of the impact response and post-impact shear buckling behaviour of hybrid composite laminates (2023)
Journal Article

This paper investigates the effect of transverse impact loading on the in-plane shear behaviour of two laminate configurations. The extensive experimental studies consider a pure carbon laminate (type 1) and a novel X-shaped carbon/glass laminate (ty...

Design, novel quality check and experimental test of an original variable length stepped scarf repair scheme (2021)
Journal Article

The performance of well-established stepped scarf repair schemes for highly loaded composite structures has been studied in previous works. However, none of the proposed repair schemes appear to minimise healthy material removal. Thus, this paper pro...

Precision fibre angle inspection for carbon fibre composite structures using polarisation vision (2021)
Journal Article

This paper evaluates the precision of polarisation imaging technology for the inspection of carbon fibre composite components. Specifically, it assesses the feasibility of the technology for fibre orientation measurements based on the premise that li...

A computer vision approach to improving cattle digestive health by the monitoring of faecal samples (2020)
Journal Article

The digestive health of cows is one of the primary factors that determine their well-being and productivity. Under- and over-feeding are both commonplace in the beef and dairy industry; leading to welfare issues, negative environmental impacts, and e...

High-sensitivity analysis of polarization by surface reflection (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018, The Author(s). The exploitation of polarization information in the field of computer vision has become progressively more popular during the last few decades. This is primarily due to (1) the fact that polarization is a source of mostly untap... Read More about High-sensitivity analysis of polarization by surface reflection.

Vanishing point detection for visual surveillance systems in railway platform environments (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Visual surveillance is of paramount importance in public spaces and especially in train and metro platforms which are particularly susceptible to many types of crime from petty theft to terrorist activity. Image resolution of vis... Read More about Vanishing point detection for visual surveillance systems in railway platform environments.

Polarisation photometric stereo (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 This paper concerns a novel approach to fuse two-source photometric stereo (PS) data with polarisation information for complete surface normal recovery for smooth or slightly rough surfaces. PS is a well-established method but is limited in ap... Read More about Polarisation photometric stereo.

Two-source surface reconstruction using polarisation (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© Springer International Publishing AG 2017. Polarisation vision aims to capture and interpret the polarisation state of incoming light as part of a computer vision system. In this paper, polarisation information is fused with two-source photometric... Read More about Two-source surface reconstruction using polarisation.

BRDF estimation for faces from a sparse dataset using a neural network (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present a novel �ve source near-infrared photometric stereo 3D face capture device. The accuracy of the system is demonstrated by a comparison with ground truth from a commercial 3D scanner. We also use the data from the �ve captured images to mo... Read More about BRDF estimation for faces from a sparse dataset using a neural network.
