Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper uses Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and the branch exchange method to solve the optimal reconfiguration in radial distribution systems subject to power loss reduction that determine the optimal switches. The GA is a relatively powerful intellige... Read More about Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method.

Broad-leaf weed detection in pasture (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Weed control in pasture is a challenging problem that can be expensive and environmentally unfriendly. This paper proposes a novel method for recognition of broad-leaf weeds in pasture such that precision weed control can be achieved with reduced her...

A review of current technical development in vertical axis wind turbine technologies and their braking system for low speed, urban and offshore areas application (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Recently, there are growing interests of using Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) to harvest wind energy from low wind speed in urban areas to relatively high wind speed in offshore wind farms. Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) has been known to hav...

Open innovation: The challenge of integrating knowledge in bi-national projects (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Purpose – This paper seeks to evaluate the professional culture factors that are present in knowledge integration mechanisms in two selected open innovation cases. Design/methodology/approach – In-depth case studies were conducted in two different e... Read More about Open innovation: The challenge of integrating knowledge in bi-national projects.

CFD simulation of three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine at low tip speed ratios (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of a three-straight-bladed Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) operating at a wind speed of 9 m/s and low Tip Speed Ratio (TSR) ranging from 1.44 to 3.3. The turbine blade has NACA 0021... Read More about CFD simulation of three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine at low tip speed ratios.

Small ceramic microbial fuel cell as a trigenerative system for electricity, organics degradation and urine filtration (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Bioelectrochemical systems are employing microbes as biocatalysts to convert waste into valuable resources. For example, a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) utilises chemical energy locked in human urine into direct electrical current and can be scaled-up to...

Residual Tensile Strength of Adhesively Bonded Double Lap Joints after Transverse Impact (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Pseudo-ductility of unidirectional thin ply hybrid composites in longitudinal compression (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The compression response of unidirectional thin-ply carbon (C) standard thickness S-glass (SG) hybrid composites is presented. Gradual failure up to high strain has been demonstrated for [SG1/(C1/SG1)17] and [SG1/(C2/SG1)17] hybrid configurations. T...

Quantifying the delamination of L-shaped composite laminates under low velocity impact using x-ray computed tomography (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Low velocity impact response and failure behavior of L-shaped composite laminates were investigated. The composite laminates with variable thickness, stacking sequences, and corner radius were manufactured using autoclave manufacturing method. Tests...
