This thesis introduces a cost-effective methodology for estimating tire contact patch forces and moments at wheel centre using axial force measurements from suspension linkages. The primary aim is to reconstruct these dynamic quantities, eliminating reliance on expensive wheel force transducers (WFTs) …

This research developed and validated a cost-effective proof-of-concept system to measure tyre forces and moments. The C 8k setup was calibrated and verified against a wheel force transducer, demonstrating accurate measurements of the wheel axis. Road tests at the RDW test centre captured both linear …

The widespread adoption of generative agents (GAs) is reshaping the healthcare landscape. Nonetheless, broad utilization is impeded by restricted access to high-quality, interoperable clinical documentation from electronic health records (EHRs) due to persistent legal, ethical, and technical barriers. …

The mission of the UN's Principles for Responsible Management Education is to transform management education and align it explicitly with achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Despite progress, critical goals, such as No Poverty and Zero Hunger, remain inadequately addressed. Our intervention …

This study presents an automated method for detecting and measuring the apex head thickness of tomato plants, a critical phenotypic trait associated with plant health, fruit development, and yield forecasting. Due to the apex's sensitivity to physical contact, non-invasive monitoring is essential. This …

This thesis describes the design and development of a modular webstore to automate product management, sales, and distribution, addressing the challenge faced by a company currently operating with manual processes for managing product sales, ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), and distribution. A …

The continued use of plastic-based sachets presents both risks and opportunities for DEMAX AD. On the one hand, increasing regulatory scrutiny could result in financial penalties and reputational damage if the company fails to adapt. On the other hand, embracing sustainable alternatives could unlock …

With coral reefs in global decline and further threatened by growing anthropogenic impacts, effective strategies for restoring these critical ecosystems are increasingly sought after. In Caribbean reefs, where disease outbreaks and fishing pressure have reduced herbivore abundances and facilitated widespread …

The intersection of financial technology (FinTech) and financial inclusion is increasingly recognized in both academic research and policy as a powerful tool for addressing global challenges and supporting sustainable development. Financial inclusion is essential for achieving the United Nations' sustainable …

As sustainable practices become increasingly important in consumer markets, brands are integrating upcycled ingredients into personal care products. However, consumer acceptance of these products is not guaranteed and often depends on psychological factors such as trust, perceived quality, and associations …
