Passive impedance sensing using a SAW resonator-coupled biosensor for zero-power wearable applications (2021)
Journal Article

A bio-sensing scheme, which acquires impedance information of a capacitive biosensor by using the reflected RF signal from a surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator connected to the biosensor, is proposed. This technique requires no power to be supplie... Read More about Passive impedance sensing using a SAW resonator-coupled biosensor for zero-power wearable applications.

A hybrid artificial neural network and wavelet packet transform approach for fault location in hybrid transmission lines (2021)
Journal Article

This paper presents a single-ended traveling-wave-based fault location (F.L.) method in a hybrid transmission line (HTL) with an overhead section combined with a cable section. For this, the software has been developed in a MATLAB programming environ...

Microbial fuel cell scale-up options: Performance evaluation of membrane (c-MFC) and membrane-less (s-MFC) systems under different feeding regimes (2021)
Journal Article

In recent years, bioelectrochemical systems have advanced towards upscaling applications and tested during field trials, primarily for wastewater treatment. Amongst reported trials, two designs of urine-fed microbial fuel cells (MFCs) were tested suc...

Design, novel quality check and experimental test of an original variable length stepped scarf repair scheme (2021)
Journal Article

The performance of well-established stepped scarf repair schemes for highly loaded composite structures has been studied in previous works. However, none of the proposed repair schemes appear to minimise healthy material removal. Thus, this paper pro...

Multi-direction gradient iterative algorithm: A unified framework for gradient iterative and least squares algorithms (2021)
Journal Article

In this study, a multi-direction-based gradient iterative (GI) algorithm for Hammerstein systems with irregular sampling data is proposed. The algorithm updates the parameter estimates using several orthogonal directions at each iteration. The conver...

The application of eye-tracking technology in architecture engineering and construction industry: A systematic review (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Despite the scholarly attention on eye-tracking technology in the AEC industry, no studies thus far have attempted to aggregate the findings or knowledge. To bridge this gap and to better understand the state-of-the-art of eye-tracking technology’s a...
