Research
Selected research themes. Open a theme for overview, related publications, videos, and awards.
Event-Driven and Edge AI for Structural Health Monitoring
An umbrella theme with two complementary projects: semantic edge AI on Qualcomm platforms, and a hybrid ultra-low-power event-driven SHM node.
Printable and E-Tattoo Wireless Strain Sensors
Printable and transferable e-tattoo wireless strain sensors that couple piezoresistive electrodes with LC resonance for highly sensitive near-field interrogation on composite structures.
Wireless Sensing for Composite Pipelines
Capacitive wireless strain sensing for structural health monitoring of composite pipes, developed in collaboration with Saudi Aramco.
Laser-Induced Graphene Flexible Sensors
Laser-induced graphene platforms for flexible temperature and strain sensing, using processing to tune Seebeck contrast and electromechanical anisotropy.
Wearable and Human–Machine Interface Sensing
Frequency-tunable piezocapacitive PDMS/MWCNT stretchable sensors integrated in a smart glove for real-time sign language recognition, in collaboration with BrightSign Gloves (UK).
Composite Joint Toughness Enhancement
Geometry-driven strategies—auxetic stiffeners, sacrificial-crack bondlines, and microstructured adhesives—that raise strength, toughness, and fatigue resistance in composite and hybrid joints.
