Symmetry-based decomposition for optimised parallelisation in 3D printing processes (2023)
Journal Article
Hatton, H., Khalid, M., Manzoor, U., & Murray, J. (2023). Symmetry-based decomposition for optimised parallelisation in 3D printing processes. International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, 127, 2935–2954. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00170-023-11205-7

Current research in 3D printing focuses on improving printing performance through various techniques, including decomposition, but targets only single printers. With improved hardware costs increasing printer availability, more situations can arise i... Read More about Symmetry-based decomposition for optimised parallelisation in 3D printing processes.

Electric Vehicle Charging Modes, Technologies and Applications of Smart Charging (2022)
Journal Article
Ahmad, A., Khalid, M., Ullah, Z., Ahmad, N., Aljaidi, M., Malik, F. A., & Manzoor, U. (2022). Electric Vehicle Charging Modes, Technologies and Applications of Smart Charging. Energies, 15(24), Article 9471. https://doi.org/10.3390/en15249471

The rise of the intelligent, local charging facilitation and environmentally friendly aspects of electric vehicles (EVs) has grabbed the attention of many end-users. However, there are still numerous challenges faced by researchers trying to put EVs... Read More about Electric Vehicle Charging Modes, Technologies and Applications of Smart Charging.

3D perception from binocular vision for a low cost humanoid robot NAO (2015)
Journal Article

Multi-Agent Modeling Toolkit – MAMT (2014)
Journal Article
Manzoor, U., & Zafar, B. (2014). Multi-Agent Modeling Toolkit – MAMT. Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, 49, 215-227. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.simpat.2014.09.005

Multi-agent system consists of two or more agents which cooperate/coordinate with each other in order to solve a complex problem which would be difficult or inappropriate if solved by single agent. Multi-agents are modeled using Agent Unified Modelin... Read More about Multi-Agent Modeling Toolkit – MAMT.

Ontology enhancing process for a situated and curiosity-driven robot (2014)
Journal Article
Rea, F., Nefti-Meziani, S., Manzoor, U., & Davis, S. (2014). Ontology enhancing process for a situated and curiosity-driven robot. Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 62(12), 1837-1847. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.robot.2014.06.005

Nowadays, robots need to be able to interact with humans and objects in a flexible way and should be able to share the same knowledge (physical and social) of the human counterpart. Therefore, there is a need for a framework for expressing and sharin... Read More about Ontology enhancing process for a situated and curiosity-driven robot.
