Identification and U-control of a state-space system with time-delay (2021)
Journal Article

This article presents a state-space model with time-delay to map the relationship between known input-output data for discrete systems. For the given input-output data, a model identification algorithm combining parameter estimation and state estimat...

WhiskEye: A biomimetic model of multisensory spatial memory based on sensory reconstruction (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present WhiskEye, a visual tactile robot supporting a neurorobotic investigation of spatial memory as a multisensory reconstructive process. This article outlines the motivation for building WhiskEye; the technical details of the physical robot, a...

A new perspective on robot ethics through investigating human–robot interactions with older adults (2021)
Journal Article

This work explored the use of human–robot interaction research to investigate robot ethics. A longitudinal human–robot interaction study was conducted with self-reported healthy older adults to determine whether expression of artificial emotions by a...

Environmental analysis and optimisation of an in-orbit shape memory alloy deployment mechanism (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This study presents the analysis and optimisation of a novel deployment mechanism that utilises the shape memory effect inherent in Nickel-Titanium alloys, namely Nitinol. The mechanism is currently designed to secure and deploy solar panels on board... Read More about Environmental analysis and optimisation of an in-orbit shape memory alloy deployment mechanism.

The Design of a 3U CubeSat to Monitor the Great Pacific Garbage Patch following a Systems Engineering Approach (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper proposes a novel application of a CubeSat to help tackle one of the most alarming calamities in the present time, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP). One of six similar accumulations of garbage across the world’s oceans, the GPGP is wi...

Iterative learning-based robotic controller with prescribed human-robot interaction force (2021)
Journal Article

In this article, an iterative-learning-based robotic controller is developed, which aims at providing a prescribed assistance or resistance force to the human user. In the proposed controller, the characteristic parameter of the human upper limb move... Read More about Iterative learning-based robotic controller with prescribed human-robot interaction force.

Topology morphing lattice structures (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Planar cellular lattice structures subject to axial compression may undergo elastic bending or buckling of the unit cells. If sufficient compression is applied, the columns of adjacent cells make contact. This changes the topology of the lattice by e... Read More about Topology morphing lattice structures.

Detection of barely visible impact damage in polymeric laminated composites using a biomimetic tactile whisker (2021)
Journal Article

This is a novel investigation on the possibility of detecting barely visible impact damage (BVID) in composite materials by whisking across the surface via tactile whisker sensors that resemble rats' whiskers. A series of drop tower low-velocity impa... Read More about Detection of barely visible impact damage in polymeric laminated composites using a biomimetic tactile whisker.
