The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vasantha, G., Corney, J., Maclachlan, R., & Wodehouse, A. (2016, June). The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design. Presented at 7th International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition, Evanston (Chicago), United States

This paper explores the role of patents in engineering design, and how the extraction and presentation of patent data could be improved for designers. We propose the use of crowdsourcing as a means to post tasks online for a crowd of people to partic... Read More about The analysis and presentation of patents to support engineering design.

The Future of BIM Technologies in Africa: Prospects and Challenges (2017)
Book Chapter
Ogwueleka, A. C., & Ikediashi, D. I. (2017). The Future of BIM Technologies in Africa: Prospects and Challenges. In P. Wu, H. Li, & X. Wang (Eds.), Integrated Building Information Modelling (307-314). Bentham Science Publishers

The construction industry is undergoing a radical change as project owners are demanding for more project visibility at lower cost and better risk management; this has increased the use of new technologies in project implementations. The concept of i... Read More about The Future of BIM Technologies in Africa: Prospects and Challenges.

Mathematical Model for Calibration of Potential Detection of Nonlinear Responses in Biological Media Exposed to RF Energy (2017)
Journal Article
See, C. H., Abd-Alhameed, R. A., Mirza, A. F., McEwan, N. J., Excell, P. S., & Balzano, Q. (2017). Mathematical Model for Calibration of Potential Detection of Nonlinear Responses in Biological Media Exposed to RF Energy. The Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society Journal, 32(1), 1-7

An efficient way to test for potential unsymmetrical nonlinear responses in biological tissue samples exposed to a microwave signal is to observe the second harmonic in a cavity resonant at the two frequencies, with collocated antinodes. Such a respo... Read More about Mathematical Model for Calibration of Potential Detection of Nonlinear Responses in Biological Media Exposed to RF Energy.

Preliminary Investigation of the Effectiveness of High-Visibility Crosswalks on Pedestrian Safety Using Crash Surrogates (2017)
Journal Article
Sarwar, M. T., Fountas, G., Bentley, C., Anastasopoulos, P. C., Blatt, A., Pierowicz, J., Majka, K., & Limoges, R. (2017). Preliminary Investigation of the Effectiveness of High-Visibility Crosswalks on Pedestrian Safety Using Crash Surrogates. Transportation research record, 2659, 182-191. https://doi.org/10.3141/2659-20

This paper, with the use of data from the SHRP 2 naturalistic driving study, provides a preliminary evaluation of the effectiveness of high-visibility crosswalks (HVCs) in improving pedestrian safety at un-controlled locations. This evaluation was ac... Read More about Preliminary Investigation of the Effectiveness of High-Visibility Crosswalks on Pedestrian Safety Using Crash Surrogates.

An investigation of environmental influence on the benefits of adaptation mechanisms in evolutionary swarm robotics (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Steyven, A., Hart, E., & Paechter, B. (2017, July). An investigation of environmental influence on the benefits of adaptation mechanisms in evolutionary swarm robotics. Presented at Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference - GECCO '17

A robotic swarm that is required to operate for long periods in a potentially unknown environment can use both evolution and individual learning methods in order to adapt. However, the role played by the environment in influencing the effectiveness o...

In search of graduate employability: An exploration of student identity (2017)
Journal Article
Smith, S., Smith, C., Taylor-Smith, E., & Fotheringham, J. (2017). In search of graduate employability: An exploration of student identity. Asia-Pacific Journal of Cooperative Education, 18(1), 15-24

Universities are adopting institution-wide projects to increase student work placements and work-related learning across all subject disciplines. However, there are large variations between programs in uptake, with limited evidence explaining why thi... Read More about In search of graduate employability: An exploration of student identity.
