• Alignment of Short Fibres: An Overview 

  Sunny, Tom; Pickering, Kim L.; Lim, Shen Hin (2017)

  Fibre orientation is a major factor influencing composite performance; research, largely on synthetic fibre composites, supports that the best mechanical performances are achieved in composites when fibres are aligned in ...

  

• Alkali treatment of hemp fibres for the production of aligned hemp fibre mats for composite reinforcement 

  Sunny, Tom; Pickering, Kim L.; Lim, Shen Hin (Springer, 2020)

  The main objective of this study was to produce aligned hemp fibre mats from high strength hemp fibres using dynamic sheet forming (DSF). Alkali treatment of hemp fibre was carried out at ambient and high temperature to ...

  

• Application of Onset Theory to Onset of Transverse Cracking in Fabric Composites 

  Lim, Shen Hin; Pearce, G.; Kelly, D.; Prusty, B.G.; Crosky, A. (2015)

  A paper presented at ICCM-19 included a methodology for application of Onset Theory to the prediction of microcracking in the transverse plies of orthogonal [0/90] fabric laminates. This paper applies the methodology to ...

  

• Development and experimental analysis of a pneumatic based dibbling machine for a forestry nursery 

  McGuinness, Benjamin John; Duke, Mike; Lim, Shen Hin; Au, Chi Kit (MDPI AG, 2022)

  The rejection rate of tree stock in a forestry nursery can be as high as 35%. This is attributed to plant physiology, poorly trained seasonal workers and unsophisticated equipment. It is estimated that approximately 5% of ...

  

• Ground Plane Segmentation of Time-of-Flight Images for Asparagus Harvesting 

  Peebles, Matthew Christopher Scott; Lim, Shen Hin; Streeter, Lee; Duke, Mike; Au, Chi Kit (IEEE, 2018)

  A key task in processing time-of-flight images for the detection of asparagus spears is the identification and segmentation of the ground plane. In this paper, we aim to compare the performance of RANSAC with a modified ...

  

• Transferable semi-autonomous architecture for vehicles operating in corridor crop environments 

  Tobias, Jonathan Isaac (The University of Waikato, 2022)

  The role of autonomous vehicles (AVs) in assisting people is recognised and, therefore, is in constant development in numerous fields. Specifically, AV’s ability to alleviate global stressors, including an increased potential ...

  

• Time-of-flight perception pipeline for selective green asparagus harvesting: Theory and application 

  Peebles, Matthew Christopher Scott (The University of Waikato, 2021)

  Generally declining labour markets, coupled with a significant increase in the projected global population have raised concerns over a potential food scarcity crisis. In response to this, the agricultural industry is ...

  

• Improving the performance of polypropylene matrix composite materials using engineered hemp fibre mats 

  Sunny, Tom (The University of Waikato, 2021)

  Projections of continuing demand for materials across the world is driving the development of more sustainable materials. The low energy consumption requirements, as well as recyclability found within the spectrum of natural ...

  

• Adapting the bidirectional Kalman filter for use in multi-frequency Time-of-flight range imaging 

  Alqassab, Ali (The University of Waikato, 2020)

  Time-of-flight range imaging cameras obtain range by producing amplitude modulated light and measuring the time taken for light to travel to the scene and back to the camera. Time-of-flight cameras require at least three ...

  

• Identification and manipulation of lily bulbs for an automated lily bulb planting system 

  Venter, Gerhard Meyer (The University of Waikato, 2019)

  Automation in agriculture is growing year by year. The goal of automating processes is to provide inexpensive and more effective solutions for everyday problems present in the industry. Automation in agriculture adds value ...
