Numerical optimization of the UAS-S4 Éhecatl airfoil using a morphing wing approach (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Sugar-Gabor, O., Simon, A., Koreanschi, A., & Botez, R. (2014, June). Numerical optimization of the UAS-S4 Éhecatl airfoil using a morphing wing approach. Presented at 32nd AIAA Applied Aerodynamics Conference, AIAA AVIATION Forum, Atalnta, Georgia, USA

In this paper, we describe the new methodology and the results obtained for multiple flight conditions optimization of the airfoil of the S4 unmanned aerial system, using a morphing wing approach. The goal of reducing the airfoil drag coefficient ove... Read More about Numerical optimization of the UAS-S4 Éhecatl airfoil using a morphing wing approach.

Participation/collaboration pattern: Perspectives of trust and security risks (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Hina, S., & Oxley, A. (2014, June). Participation/collaboration pattern: Perspectives of trust and security risks. Presented at 2014 International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences (ICCOINS), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Cyber security issues, due to a lack of trust in social networking sites (SNS), are being addressed by many researchers and practitioners. Despite the diversity of security and privacy vulnerabilities, SNS have acquired and are still acquiring great...

Automatic detection of microphone handling noise (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Kendrick, P., Cox, T., Li, F., Fazenda, B., & Jackson, I. (2014, May). Automatic detection of microphone handling noise. Presented at 4th International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing, Copenhagen, Denmark

Microphone handling noise is a common problem with user generated content. It can occur when the operator
inadvertently knocks or brushes a recording device.
Handling noise may be impulsive, where a microphone is
knocked, or a more sustained rubbi... Read More about Automatic detection of microphone handling noise.
