SHION (Smart tHermoplastic InjectiON): An Interactive Digital Twin Supporting Real-Time Shopfloor Operations (2020)
Journal Article
Hermawati, S., & Lawson, G. (2022). SHION (Smart tHermoplastic InjectiON): An Interactive Digital Twin Supporting Real-Time Shopfloor Operations. IEEE Internet Computing, 26(3), 23-32. https://doi.org/10.1109/MIC.2020.3047349

Injection molding is widely used to produce plastic components with large lot size. However, guaranteeing consistency and quality of parts in injection molding is challenging. Failures occur due to variation during injection cycles. Thus, real-time d...

Physiological Indicators of Task Demand, Fatigue, and Cognition in Future Digital Manufacturing Environments (2020)
Journal Article
Argyle, E. M., Marinescu, A., Wilson, M. L., Lawson, G., & Sharples, S. (2021). Physiological Indicators of Task Demand, Fatigue, and Cognition in Future Digital Manufacturing Environments. International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 145, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhcs.2020.102522

As Digital Manufacturing transforms traditionally physical work into more system-monitoring tasks, new methods are required for understanding people's mental workload and prolonged capacity for focused attention. Many physiological measures have... Read More about Physiological Indicators of Task Demand, Fatigue, and Cognition in Future Digital Manufacturing Environments.

Multimodal virtual environments: an opportunity to improve fire safety training? (2020)
Journal Article
Lawson, G., Roper, T., Shaw, E., Hsieh, M., & Cobb, S. V. (2020). Multimodal virtual environments: an opportunity to improve fire safety training?. Policy and Practice in Health and Safety, 18(2), 155-168. https://doi.org/10.1080/14773996.2020.1796085

Fires and fire-related fatalities remain a tragic and frequent occurrence. Evidence has shown that humans adopt sub-optimal behaviours during fire incidents and, therefore, training is one possible means to improve occupant survival rates. We present...
