Nature-inspired waveform optimisation for range spread target detection in cognitive radar

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
The waveform optimisation problem in cognitive radar is non-convex and will have sub-optimal solutions when solved by the semi-definite relaxation (SDR) technique. Here, a novel nature-inspired waveform optimisation framework is proposed for range-spread

Synthesis of a Novel Thermoresponsive S53P4 Bioactive Glass Extract–Poloxamer 407 Injectable Hydrogels: Assessment of Biocompatibility and Antimicrobial Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates innovative thermoreversible hydrogels derived from S53P4 bioactive glass extracts to aid in the healing of infected diabetic foot wounds. These injectable gels, which gel at body temperature, release beneficial ions and remain stable over time.

Swarm optimization for adaptive phase measurements with low visibility

open access: yes, 2013
Adaptive feedback normally provides the greatest accuracy for optical phase measurements. New advances in nitrogen vacancy centre technology have enabled magnetometry via individual spin measurements, which are similar to optical phase measurements but ...

A Thermodynamic 3D Model for the Simulation of Diffusion‐Controlled Alloying Processes in Heterogeneous Material Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical model resulting from irreversible thermodynamics for describing transport processes is introduced, focusing on thermodynamic activity gradients as the actual driving force for diffusion. Implemented in CUDA C++ and using CalPhaD methods for determining the necessary activity data, the model accurately simulates interdiffusion in aluminum ...

Visualisation of advanced search [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This article presents investigation on visualisation of search processes. Existing evolutionary and adaptive algorithms for search and optimisation, in certain extent, may differ from each other in behaviour and in obtained results.

Zein‐Based Adhesives: Sustainable Extraction and Application in Bioadhesive Technologies

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Zein is extracted from corn gluten meal using a simple and scalable process with high yield (~90%). The resulting protein is applied in bioadhesives modified with Ca2+ and Fe3+ ions, exhibiting substrate‐dependent adhesion. The findings demonstrate competitive bonding performance and highlight the role of ionic interactions in tuning adhesion ...

Spider monkey optimisation assisted particle filter for robust object tracking

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2017
Particle filters (PFs) are sequential Monte Carlo methods that use particle representation of state‐space model to implement the recursive Bayesian filter for non‐linear and non‐Gaussian systems. Owing to this property, PFs have been extensively used for

Global Trajectory Optimisation : Can We Prune the Solution Space When Considering Deep Space Manoeuvres? [Final Report] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This document contains a report on the work done under the ESA/Ariadna study 06/4101 on the global optimization of space trajectories with multiple gravity assist (GA) and deep space manoeuvres (DSM). The study was performed by a joint team of scientists
