Over the past few years a number of technologies have been developed to produce starch-based biodegradable cushion packaging foams as alternatives to polymer foams in order to minimise the impact to the environment. Preliminary tests suggested that the biodegradable foams perform comparably to the oil-based polystyrene foams for impact energy absorption. To promote the applications of these materials, in-depth understanding of the relationship of structure and performance is needed for appropriate design of packaging. This paper reports an on-going research effort on modelling the mechanical behaviour of a macro-composite biodegradable foam to facilitate structural design and optimisation.
Symbolic execution is a popular software testing technique that can help developers identify complex bugs in real-world applications. Unfortunately, symbolic execution may struggle at analyzing programs containing mem...

Enabled by additive manufacturing technology, personal manufacturing, if realized, will give ordinary people control over their physical world by allowing them to personally program its construction. Currently several pioneering mass customization and personal fabrication applications have been developed for consumer products, gifts, toy, etc. However, one of the core challenges that are remained to be addressed for realizing personal manufacturing is the easiness of creating 3D models for additive manufacturing systems. Current developments in CAD software and reverse engineering are still lacking on the easiness of usage especially for normal users without much experience. In this paper, we present a touch-based 3D-shape acquiring method that is easy and intuitive to use. The key technical challenges on the related hardware and software development are discussed. A testbed system is presented and multiple examples are given to demonstrate its capability.
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) comprise a wide variety of applications. In most of the applications, the sensor nodes are distributed in a hostile area and nodes in WSNs are energy constrained, once it is installed, ...
