    Research Interests
    • Intelligent grasping of unknown objects / the design and application of an opto-tactile sensor for object surface recognition has been presented in an IEEE conferences. I have developed a methodology for slippage detection by the scattered energy of vibration.
    • Metal machining Processes optimisation, and High speed metal cutting / a methodology for machine shop scheduling has been developed to minimise the defect products increasing productivity.
    • High-speed spindle design, and vibration based fatigue damage / it is hypothesised that the fatigue damage of machine tools spindle bearings occurs due to the effect of scattered energy of vibration. This was tested by comparing lifetimes from predictions using scattered energy method with actual lifetimes of high-speed spindle blocks. Refer to publication list.
    • Research in course development / developed and updated a Mechatronics Design course, 3 papers published.
