Design procedure of chattering attenuation sliding mode attitude control of a satellite system (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Nemati, H., & Hokamoto, S. (2014). Design procedure of chattering attenuation sliding mode attitude control of a satellite system

This study presents a design procedure for a new robust nonlinear control algorithm based on the theory of the terminal sliding mode (TSM) to control the attitude of a satellite system. Since the traditional TSM controllers include a discontinuous fu... Read More about Design procedure of chattering attenuation sliding mode attitude control of a satellite system.

The application of visible wavelength reflectance hyperspectral imaging for the detection and identification of blood stains (2014)
Journal Article
Li, B., Beveridge, P., O'Hare, W. T., & Islam, M. (2014). The application of visible wavelength reflectance hyperspectral imaging for the detection and identification of blood stains. Science and Justice, 54(6), 432-438. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scijus.2014.05.003

© 2014 Forensic Science Society. Current methods of detection and identification of blood stains rely largely on visual examination followed by presumptive tests such as Kastle-Meyer, Leuco-malachite green or luminol. Although these tests are useful,... Read More about The application of visible wavelength reflectance hyperspectral imaging for the detection and identification of blood stains.

The effect of CO2 laser irradiation on surface and dyeing properties of wool for textile design (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Morgan, L., Tyrer, J., & Kane, F. (2014). The effect of CO2 laser irradiation on surface and dyeing properties of wool for textile design. https://doi.org/10.2351/1.5063061

The consumption of water and energy used in current dyeing and finishing processes in the textile industry pose significant environmental concern. By offering alternative solutions to traditional textile wet processing through laser technology, there...

Feasibility of using Duraform® flex lattice structures and additive manufacturing for optimising bicycle helmet design safety (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Soe, S., Robinson, M. R., Martin, P. S., Jones, M. D., & Theobald, P. (2014). Feasibility of using Duraform® flex lattice structures and additive manufacturing for optimising bicycle helmet design safety. In Sustainable Design and Manufacturing: SDM-14: Pre-Proceedings, (278-291)

Bicycle helmets are designed to attenuate forces and accelerations experienced by the head during cycling accidents. An essential element of bicycle helmet design is, therefore, the appropriate manufacturing of energy dissipating components. The focu...
