Optical imaging and analysis systems
The Eifeler Image Analysis Suite is a comprehensive imaging system consisting of an Olympus BX40 high magnification optical microscope linked via a CCD camera to a dedicated PC
Raman spectroscopy of pure clinker phases
Cement powders contain four major hydraulic constituents, ie clinker phases, which hydrate at different rates and thus influence important factors such as setting time, workability and mechanical strength
Development of demand side management strategy to facilitate network operation in smart grid
The aim of this study is to define a flexibility exchange strategy for solving congestion issues and voltage profile management
Power system estimation based on deep learning and system area mapping
The aim of this study is to develop a deep learning based power system state.
Robot tool positioning and alignment
One of the main applications of machine vision in industry is in the alignment and positioning of tools that are used in a large variety of tasks
Raman Spectroscopy of PVD Coatings
From 1999-2002, the Raman Spectroscopy of PVD Coatings project aimed to develop a Raman based method of monitoring the quality of coatings produced by the Surface Engineering Group and monitor stress and wear induced changes in hard coatings
Novel scanning electrochemical technologies for mapping defects in organic coatings
The project aims to develop an understanding of the physical and chemical features of coatings which are responsible for the causes of heterogeneities
Investigation and characterisation of corrosion mechanism for the sol-gel developed Cr6+ free coatings for aircraft Al or Mg alloys
This project will add various corrosion inhibitors in the formulation to investigate their corrosion resistance and mechanism to the coated metal through electrochemical analysis
