The measurement of tissue interface pressures and changes in jugular venous parameters associated with cervical immobilisation devices: A systematic review (2013)
Journal Article

Cervical immobilisation is commonly applied following trauma, particularly blunt head injury, but current methods of immobilisation are associated with significant complications. Semi-rigid disposable cervical collars are known to cause pressure ulce...

Mechanical properties and microstructure of thin plates of A6061 wrought aluminum alloy using rheology forging process with electromagnetic stirring (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We propose the possibility of fabricating A6061 thin plates using the rheology forging process. Electromagnetic stirring (EMS) is used to fabricate a semi-solid slurry. A thin plate is formed by injecting the slurry into the forging die. When the pun...

Observer-based output feedback control of a PEM fuel cell system by high-order sliding mode technique (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper deals with an high-order sliding-mode approach to the observer-based output feedback control of a PEM fuel cell system comprising a compressor, a supply manifold, the fuel-cell stack and the return manifold. The suggested scheme assumes th... Read More about Observer-based output feedback control of a PEM fuel cell system by high-order sliding mode technique.

Challenges to BIM-Cloud integration: Implication of security issues on secure collaboration (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Emerging information technologies such as Building Information Modelling (BIM) offer the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry enormous potential to develop collaborative workflows. Cloud computing has similarly gained popularity... Read More about Challenges to BIM-Cloud integration: Implication of security issues on secure collaboration.

Improving the efficiency of Market Information Analysis Systems using GIS, Polygon and Spatial Databases (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

An organization's future developments are influenced by its managements' decisions. This can only happen by strengthening research and development strategies. Market monitoring and analyzing systems are designed to provide an organized flow of inform...
