Optical Fiber Sensor Design for Ground Slope Movement Monitoring for Railway Safety Operations (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Hook, D., Laing, W., Kerrouche, A., Barreto Gonzalez, D., & Alwis, L. S. (2018). Optical Fiber Sensor Design for Ground Slope Movement Monitoring for Railway Safety Operations. In 2018 IEEE Sensors Proceedings (1-4). https://doi.org/10.1109/ICSENS.2018.8589835

Scour and slope instability are a major issue in keeping the railway structures safe and operational. Conventional measurement techniques do not allow real-time monitoring of slope movement and/or are time/resource consuming. Novel fiber optic techno...

Towards the Development of New Integrated Ultrasonic Filtration Systems for Monitoring Waterborne Pathogens (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Kerrouche, A. (2018, November). Towards the Development of New Integrated Ultrasonic Filtration Systems for Monitoring Waterborne Pathogens. Paper presented at 5th World Congress and Expo on Applied Microbiology, Edinburgh, Scotland

The detection of waterborne pathogens mainly relies on sample processing. This process concentrates large volume of water to very small volume that can be used under microscopes. The current approved concentration techniques are slow, very expensive,...

Megasonic elution of waterborne protozoa enhances recovery rates (2018)
Journal Article
Bridle, H., Kerrouche, A., & Desmulliez, M. (2018). Megasonic elution of waterborne protozoa enhances recovery rates. Matters, https://doi.org/10.19185/matters.201712000007

Waterborne pathogens represent a major concern for human and animal health making monitoring of water essential to prevent outbreaks. Sample preparation is critical to assess a spatio-temporally representative volume of water and identify pathogens p...
