Optimized activated carbon cathode in membraneless single chamber microbial fuel cell treating acetate (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Copyright © 2013 Delta Energy and Environment. Activated Carbon (AC) have been used as cheap alternative cathode for microbial fuel cell (MFC) applications. Different parameters (applied pressure and temperature treatment) have been changed and the c...

Algal "lagoon" effect for oxygenating MFC cathodes (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Copyright © 2013 Delta Energy and Environment. This paper describes the active oxygenation performed by the photosynthetic organisms in the cathode of a two-chamber Microbial Fuel Cell system. The algal growth provided dissolved oxygen to the cathode... Read More about Algal "lagoon" effect for oxygenating MFC cathodes.

Smart miniature microbial fuel cell design for increased electricity generation and waste water treatment (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Copyright © 2013 Delta Energy and Environment. Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) are a green sustainable energy with minimal carbon footprint, suitable for wastewater remediation and generation of useful amounts of electricity. This study focuses on the ar... Read More about Smart miniature microbial fuel cell design for increased electricity generation and waste water treatment.

Towards disposable microbial fuel cells: Natural rubber glove membranes (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Copyright © 2013 Delta Energy and Environment. Natural rubber from laboratory gloves (GNR) was compared to cation exchange membrane (CEM) in microbial fuel cells (MFC). GNR-MFCs produced an immediate working voltage (50mV) indicating the availability... Read More about Towards disposable microbial fuel cells: Natural rubber glove membranes.

How can I help you? Comparing engagement classification strategies for a robot bartender (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A robot agent existing in the physical world must be able to understand the social states of the human users it interacts with in order to respond appropriately. We compared two implemented methods for estimating the engagement state of customers for... Read More about How can I help you? Comparing engagement classification strategies for a robot bartender.

Mechanical properties and microstructure of thin plates of A6061 wrought aluminum alloy using rheology forging process with electromagnetic stirring (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We propose the possibility of fabricating A6061 thin plates using the rheology forging process. Electromagnetic stirring (EMS) is used to fabricate a semi-solid slurry. A thin plate is formed by injecting the slurry into the forging die. When the pun...

Improvement of spin flight test quality by evaluation of measured data (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The aim is to equip an aeroplane with different sensor systems to acquire data from spin flight tests. One sensor system contains an acceleration sensor and electronic gyroscopes to determine the attitude and position and another sensor system contai...

Sliding mode hybrid impedance control of robot manipulators interacting with unknown environments using VSMRC method (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In the present paper, the objective of hybrid impedance control is specified and a robust hybrid impedance control approach is proposed. Based on the concept of hybrid control, the task space is decomposed into position and force controlled subspaces...

Bootstrapping a robot's kinematic model (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present a system that is able to autonomously build a 3D model of a robot's hand, along with a kinematic model of the robot's arm, beginning with very little information. The system starts by using exploratory motions to locate and centre the robo... Read More about Bootstrapping a robot's kinematic model.
