Avionics and airborne computing (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
In this talk, Dr Steve Wright looks at how an aircraft’s avionics and their associated sensor/actuator systems can fail (and they do fail), and how these systems are designed to be resilient to these failures in hardware, software and architecture. T... Read More about Avionics and airborne computing.
Children as engineers: Maximising engineering outreach for universities (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
The Children as Engineers project is an innovative new way to enrich undergraduate education as well as giving primary school children the experience of being an engineer. Undergraduate student engineers worked closely with student teachers to design... Read More about Children as engineers: Maximising engineering outreach for universities.
Testing the validity of Lambert's law for micro-scale photometric stereo applied to paper substrates (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
This paper presents an empirical study to investigate the use of photometric stereo (PS) for micro-scale 3D measurement of paper samples. PS estimates per-pixel surface orientation from images of a surface captured from the same viewpoint but under d...

Towards verifiably ethical robot behaviour (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ensuring that autonomous systems work ethically is both complex and difficult. However, the idea of having an additional ‘governor’ that assesses options the system has, and prunes them to select the most ethical choices is well understood. Recent wo...

Assessment of the low-dissipation monotonicity-preserving scheme in a series of DNS of shock-wave/turbulent boundary layer interactions (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
The seventh-order low-dissipation monotonicity-preserving scheme developed by Fang et al. (Journal of Scientific Computing, 2013, 56:67-95) was assessed in direct numerical simulations (DNS) of isotropic turbulence and channel flow. The influence of...

Mixing flow characteristics for a transverse sonic jet injecting into a supersonic crossflow (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Detached-eddy simulation (DES) of a sonic jet flow issuing perpendicularly into a supersonic crossflow is presented. The supersonic boundary layer flow has conditions of incoming Mach number 1.6 and Reynolds number Reδ 1.08×105, based on the free-str...

Large-eddy simulation of a three-dimensional hypersonic shock wave turbulent boundary layer interaction of a single fin (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
The large-eddy simulation (LES) of a hypersonic flow passing a single-fin at Mach 5 and Re∞=3.7×107/m was conducted and the three-dimensional (3D) shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction (SWTBLI) was studied in the present paper. This is prob... Read More about Large-eddy simulation of a three-dimensional hypersonic shock wave turbulent boundary layer interaction of a single fin.
