Trail laying during tandem-running recruitment in the ant Temnothorax albipennis (2014)
Journal Article

Tandem running is a recruitment strategy whereby one ant leads a single naïve nest mate to a resource. While tandem running progresses towards the goal, the leader ant and the follower ant maintain contact mainly by tactile signals. In this paper, we...

The distributed co-evolution of an on-board simulator and controller for swarm robot behaviours (2014)
Journal Article

We investigate the reality gap, specifically the environmental correspondence of an on-board simulator. We describe a novel distributed co-evolutionary approach to improve the transference of controllers that co-evolve with an on-board simulator. A n...

Environmental Hazard Analysis - a Variant of Preliminary Hazard Analysis for Autonomous Mobile Robots (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht. Robot manufacturers will be required to demonstrate objectively that all reasonably foreseeable hazards have been identified in any robotic product design that is to be marketed commercially. This is... Read More about Environmental Hazard Analysis - a Variant of Preliminary Hazard Analysis for Autonomous Mobile Robots.

Damage Classification of Sandwich Composites Using Acoustic Emission Technique and k-means Genetic Algorithm (2014)
Journal Article

© 2014, Springer Science+Business Media New York. In this study acoustic emission (AE) technique was used for monitoring mode I delamination test of sandwich composites. Since, during mode I delamination test various damage mechanisms appear, their c...
