A study of unidirectional swipe gestures on in-vehicle touch screens (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Burnett, G., Crundall, E., Large, D., Lawson, G., & Skrypchuk, L. (2013, October). A study of unidirectional swipe gestures on in-vehicle touch screens. Presented at The 5th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications , Eindhoven, Netherlands

Touch screens are increasingly used within modern vehicles, providing the potential for a range of gestures to facilitate interaction under divided attention conditions. This paper describes a study aiming to understand how drivers naturally make swi... Read More about A study of unidirectional swipe gestures on in-vehicle touch screens.

A comparison of resistive and capacitive touchscreens for use within vehicles (2013)
Journal Article
Burnett, G., Large, D., Crundall, E., Lawson, G., De-Kremer, S.-J., & Skrypchuk, L. (2013). A comparison of resistive and capacitive touchscreens for use within vehicles. Advances in Transportation Studies, 31, 5-16

Vehicles are increasingly utilising technologies developed in non-automotive domains. In this respect, capacitive touchscreens are familiar to smartphone and tablet computer users enabling a wide range of single and multi-touch gestures, but have not...

Microwave synthesis of magnetically separable ZnFe2O4-reduced graphene oxide for wastewater treatment (2013)
Journal Article
Jumeri, F., Lim, H., Ariffin, S., Huang, N., Teo, P., Fatin, S., Chia, C., & Harrison, I. (2014). Microwave synthesis of magnetically separable ZnFe2O4-reduced graphene oxide for wastewater treatment. Ceramics International, 40(5), 7057-7065. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ceramint.2013.12.037

A magnetically separable ZnFe2O4-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nano-composite was synthesised via a microwave method. Field emission scanning electron microscopy images of the nano-composite showed a uniform dispersion of nanoparticles on the rGO shee...

Liquid film thickness behaviour within a large diameter vertical 180° return bend (2013)
Journal Article
Adbulkadir, M., Azzi, A., Zhao, D., Lowndes, I., & Azzopardi, B. (2014). Liquid film thickness behaviour within a large diameter vertical 180° return bend. Chemical Engineering Science, 107, 137-148. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2013.12.009

Experimental results of liquid film thickness distribution of an air-water mixture flowing through a vertical 180° return bend are reported. Measurements of liquid film thickness were achieved using flush mounted pin and parallel wire probes. The ben...

First Identification of Rare-Earth Oxide Nucleation in Chalcogenide Glasses and Implications for Fabrication of Mid-Infrared Active Fibers (2013)
Journal Article
Tang, Z., Furniss, D., Fay, M., Neate, N. C., Cheng, Y., Barney, E., Sojka, L., Sujecki, S., Benson, T. M., & Seddon, A. B. (2014). First Identification of Rare-Earth Oxide Nucleation in Chalcogenide Glasses and Implications for Fabrication of Mid-Infrared Active Fibers. Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 97(2), 432-441. https://doi.org/10.1111/jace.12732

Gallium (Ga) helps solubilize rare-earth ions in chalcogenide glasses, but has been found to form the dominant crystallizing selenide phase in bulk glass in our previous work. Here, the crystallization behavior is compared of as-annealed 0–3000 ppmw...

Achieving low voltage half electrolysis with a supercapacitor electrode (2013)
Journal Article
Peng, C., Hu, D., & Chen, G. Z. (2014). Achieving low voltage half electrolysis with a supercapacitor electrode. Energy and Environmental Science, 7(3), 1018-1022. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3ee43817a

Half electrolysis consists of a single faradaic reaction and a supercapacitor electrode. The electrolytic product is only produced at the faradaic electrode and the low voltage electrolysis is highly energy efficient.

Investigating the microrheology of the vitreous humor using an optically trapped local probe (2013)
Journal Article
Watts, F., Tan, L. E., Wilson, C. G., Girkin, J. M., Tassieri, M., & Wright, A. J. (2013). Investigating the microrheology of the vitreous humor using an optically trapped local probe. Journal of Optics, 16(1), https://doi.org/10.1088/2040-8978/16/1/015301

We demonstrate that an optically trapped silica bead can be used as a local probe to measure the micro-rheology of the vitreous humor. The Brownian motion of the bead was observed using a fast camera and the micro-rheology determined by analysis of t...

Sound of nano (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Aylott, J., Clark, M., Marques, L., Perez-Cota, F., Smith, R. J., & Webb, K. F. Sound of nano. Presented at SPIE Micro+Nano Materials, Devices, and Applications, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

Ultrasound is widely used for imaging, measurement and diagnostics in the MHz region and is perhaps most familiar as a medical or non-destructive imaging or measurement tool. In the MHz frequency range the wavelength is typically measured in microns... Read More about Sound of nano.
