• Image Metrics for Deconvolution of Satellites in Low Earth Orbit 

  Hickman S; Muruganandan V; Clare, Richard; Weddell, Stephen (2021)

  Satellites and space debris clutter low Earth orbital paths. This causes concerns for future launches as the clutter increases the probability of in-orbit collisions. Therefore, it is important to track and characterise ...

• A Tip-Tilt Mirror Control System for Partial Image Correction at UC Mount John Observatory 

  Liu, J; Muruganandan, V; Clare, R; Ramırez Trujillo, M; Weddell, S (IEEE, 2021)

  Astronomical images captured by ground-based telescopes, including at University of Canterbury Mount John Observatory, are distorted due to atmospheric turbulence. The major constituents of atmospheric distortion are ...

• A Wavefront Sensorless Tip/Tilt Removal method for Correcting Astronomical Images 

  Taghiniajelodari P; Muruganandan V; Weddell S; Clare R (IEEE, 2021)

  Images of astronomical objects captured by groundbased telescopes are distorted due to atmospheric turbulence. The phase of aberration is traditionally estimated by wavefront sensors (WFS). This information is utilised ...

• Is Agile Not Agile Enough? A Study on How Agile is Applied and Misapplied in the Video Game Development Industry 

  McKenzie T; Morales M; Lukosch S; Hoermann S (2021)

  Video games have become the most dominant and successful entertainment industry worldwide; however, many video game development (VGD) projects and studios struggle to succeed. At present, there are no commonly accepted ...

• 3D Model Generation from a Stereo Camera using Multiple Viewpoints 

  Clark A; Green R (2004)

  This paper explores some existing methods commonly used in three dimensional (3D) model generation, in particular those which typically employ multiple cameras or multiple frames from one camera for image acquisition. A ...

• Anaerobic digestion of green wastes at different solids concentrations and temperatures to enhance methane generation 

  Bayat A; Bello Mendoza R; Wareham D (2020)

  Two major categories of green waste are fruit and vegetable (FV) waste and garden and yard (GY) waste. Although, anaerobic digestions (AD) is able to manage FV waste; there is less confidence in the conditions for AD to ...

• Learning Software Quality Assurance with Bricks

• Electrical Properties of molten TiO2-SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-CaO slag 

  Martin-Treceno S; Allanore A; Bishop C; Watson M; Marshall A (2020)

  Recently, the electrochemical recovery of metals from this molten slag has been proven feasible [1]. However, a deeper understanding of the electrochemical behaviour of this complex oxide system, in its molten state, is ...

• Towards a Classification Method for Gravity Pipeline Failures 

  Milke M (2019)

  Asset management planning for wastewater pipe networks typically uses an estimate of pipe life and scheduled replacement dates. Uncertainty in the process leads to large financial implications for local government. The ...

• Refocusing extreme event plans on decisions and decision criteria 

  Milke M; Brown C (2019)

• Managing illegal dumping in the big data era: prospects and challenges 

  Milke M (2020)

• Low Voltage Network Modelling 

  Watson JD; Watson NR; Santos-Martin D; Lemon S; Wood AR; Miller A (2014)

  With the increasing uptake of new technologies (such as PV, wind, EVs and LED lighting) there is a need to study their effect on the low voltage (LV) network, and this is one objective of the Green Grid project. Although ...

• Test bench demonstration of the geometric wavefront sensor 

  Hickman S; Weddell SJ; Clare RM (SPIE, 2020)

  This paper investigates the performance and optimization of the Geometric Wavefront Sensor (GWFS) in openloop wavefront sensing, along with the Curvature Wavefront Sensor (CWFS) and Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor (SH-WFS). ...

• Board 48: Analysis of a Trial of Mentoring between Civil Engineering Students and Practicing Engineers 

  Milke M; Kamp A; Brierley D (ASEE Conferences, 2018)

  The paper briefly reviews the rich literature related to mentoring, with a focus on engineering mentoring in particular. That is followed by the details of our mentoring trial (the methods of the research), then the results ...

• An integrated local damping approach for enhanced characterization of nonlinear dynamic response 

  De Francesco G; Sullivan, T J (2020)

  This paper develops a simplified local damping approach for use in the nonlinear dynamic analysis of structures so that different energy dissipation mechanisms can be integrated. It is argued that a local damping approach ...

• Estimation of Background Stars Over a Satellite Pass for Multi-Object Adaptive Optics 

  Muruganandan VA; Clare R; Lambert A; Weddell S (2020)

• Empathy and yawn contagion: Can we (Humans) catch yawns from robots? 

  Obaid M; Kuchenbrandt D; Bartneck, Christoph (ACM, 2014)

  Empathy plays an important role in the interaction between humans and robots. The contagious effect of yawning is moderated by the degree of social closeness and empathy. We propose to analyse the contagion of yawns as an ...
