Welding-induced yield strength heterogeneity in X100Q: Modelling and characterisation
(Elsevier, 2021-09-14)Yield strength (YS) heterogeneity in X100Q high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel welded joints is a key factor which influences fatigue life performance. The effects of welding-induced microstructural changes are investigated ... -
What if digital cameras didn't need (local) storage?: directing photos to the cloud
(IEEE, 2012)Cloud computing suggests that we can move computers from the desktop onto the network. In this article, we investigate whether we can do the same with digital imaging devices. After all, for most of us, the practical ... -
When and why metaheuristics researchers can ignore “No Free Lunch” theorems
(Springer, 2019-03-25)The No Free Lunch (NFL) theorem for search and optimisation states that averaged across all possible objective functions on a fixed search space, all search algorithms perform equally well. Several refined versions of the ... -
Wide field of view (WFoV) imaging for consumer devices
(2014)The concepts of wide field of view (WFoV) imaging for consumer devices are explained. Some current examples and enabling technologies are provided. The need for real-time distortion correction is outlined. Several new ... -
Wireless home network infrastructure for wearable appliances
(IEEE, 2002-06-18)A server infrastructure allows wireless wearable appliances or portable handsets to access consumer services offered via the server. Services are accessed via a universal home services interface (UHSI) which is shared by ... -
Wireless remote control [IP Corner]
(IEEE, 2012-10)The original Flashmatic patent was filed May 6th 1955 and granted Sept 8 1959 to the Zenith Radio Corporation. Even in those days it took almost 4 years to work through the patent examination process to have a legally ... -
Wireless transfer of images from a digital camera to the internet via a standard GSM mobile phone
(IEEE, 2001)In this paper we describe an infrastructure based on an existing, commercially available, GSM mobile phone for achieving connectivity between digital cameras and an Internet Website. Pictures are ... -
Workplace Exposure to Bioaerosols in Podiatry Clinics
(Oxford Journals, 2012-01-03)The aim of this study was to design and execute a pilot study to collect information on the personal exposure levels of podiatrists to microbial hazards in podiatry clinics and also to assess health and safety knowledge ... -
An XFEM-Based Methodology for Fatigue Delamination and Permeability in Composites
(2014)Carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) are one of the prospective material families being investigated for use in the fuel tanks of future reusable space launch vehicles (RSLVs). The extreme thermo-mechanical loading that ... -
Xilinx FPGA implementation of a pixel processor for object detection applications
(2000-06)This paper describes an FPGA and distributed RAM architecture for an image pixel processor implementing primary elements of an object detection system. A comparison of the system performance with existing DSP processor-based ...
