A constraint-based approach for assessing the capabilities of existing designs to handle product variation (2008)
Thesis
All production machinery is designed with an inherent capability to handle slight variations in product. This is initially achieved by simply providing adjustments to allow, for example, changes that occur in pack sizes to be accommodated, through us...

Reflectance of human skin using colour photometric stereo: With particular application to pigmented lesion analysis (2008)
Journal Article
Background/purpose: The optical appearance of human skin is highly dependent on the interaction between the illumination (type and position), observer position and the skin surface structure. Different currently available photographic techniques reco... Read More about Reflectance of human skin using colour photometric stereo: With particular application to pigmented lesion analysis.
Individual and collective choice: Parallel prospecting and mining in ants (2008)
Journal Article
Decision making is of crucial importance in the lives of both animals and humans. How decisions of group members scale up to group decisions is of great interest. Accordingly, we gave homeless ant colonies (n=67) in three experiments a choice between... Read More about Individual and collective choice: Parallel prospecting and mining in ants.
A generalised upper bound for the k-tuple domination number (2008)
Journal Article
In this paper, we provide an upper bound for the k-tuple domination number that generalises known upper bounds for the double and triple domination numbers. We prove that for any graph G,γ× k (G) ≤ frac(ln (δ - k + 2) + ln (∑m = 1k - 1 (k - m) over(d... Read More about A generalised upper bound for the k-tuple domination number.
Lot sizing and furnace scheduling in small foundries (2008)
Journal Article
A lot sizing and scheduling problem prevalent in small market-driven foundries is studied. There are two related decision levels: (1) the furnace scheduling of metal alloy production, and (2) moulding machine planning which specifies the type and siz...

An integrated queuing and multi-objective bed allocation model with application to a hospital in China (2008)
Journal Article
In this paper, a multi-objective decision aiding model is introduced for allocation of beds in a hospital. The model is based on queuing theory and goal programming (GP). Queuing theory is used to obtain some essential characteristics of access to va...

Critical buckling of delaminated composite plates using exact stiffness analysis (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Composite materials are widely used in aerospace structures. Although these materials offer many advantages over metals in terms of strength, stiffness and low mass, additional types of failure can be encountered. One of the most serious of these is...

Multi-Objective UAS Flight Management in Time Constrained Low Altitude Local Environments (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
This paper presents a new framework for Multi-Objective Flight Management of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), operating in partially known environments, where planning time constraints are present. During UAS operations, civilian UAS may have multiple... Read More about Multi-Objective UAS Flight Management in Time Constrained Low Altitude Local Environments.
