Experimental study of bonded, bolted, and hybrid bonded-bolted single lap shear joints with woven CFRP adherends (2024)
Journal Article

This paper presents an extensive experimental performance study of bonded joints (BJs), only bolted joints (OBJs) and hybrid bonded-bolted joints (HJs). For each joint type, three test configurations are considered: namely, short, medium and long ove...

Citizen-led emissions reduction: Enhancing enjoyment and understanding for diverse citizen engagement with air pollution and climate change decision making (2024)
Journal Article

Diverse citizens need to be involved in net zero transitions to ensure policy interventions do not entrench inequalities for people from minoritised or disenfranchised groups and ensure public engagement with rapid social changes. This paper illustra... Read More about Citizen-led emissions reduction: Enhancing enjoyment and understanding for diverse citizen engagement with air pollution and climate change decision making.

Optimisation of small-scale aquaponics systems using artificial intelligence and the IoT: Current status, challenges, and opportunities (2024)
Journal Article

Environment changes, water scarcity, soil depletion, and urbanisation are making it harder to produce food using traditional methods in various regions and countries. Aquaponics is emerging as a sustainable food production system that produces fish a...

Physically embodied artificial agents, or robots, are being incorporated into various practical and social contexts, from self-driving cars for personal transportation to assistive robotics in social care. To enable these systems to better perform un... Read More about Variable autonomy through responsible robotics: Design guidelines and research agenda.

Development of analytical model for bonding of CFRP rod in concrete subjected to cyclic loads (2024)
Journal Article

Recent material science advances have resulted in the use of High-Performance Concrete (HPC) and Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) in superstructures, which were chosen for their superior strength. However, under cyclic loads, these materials fr... Read More about Development of analytical model for bonding of CFRP rod in concrete subjected to cyclic loads.

Tactile-based grasping stability prediction based on human grasp demonstration for robot manipulation (2024)
Journal Article

To minimize irrelevant and redundant information in tactile data and harness the dexterity of human hands. In this paper, we introduce a novel binary classification network with normalized differential convolution (NDConv) layers. Our method leverage...
