As a mechatronics graduate with a PhD in magnetic levitation and vibration isolation, having taught biomechanics and sports engineering, my research areas of interest span a wide range. My primary research focus is to advance the modelling tools, understanding of, and use of electromagnetics to solve mechanical engineering problems. I created the AUMAG research group that supports a steady stream of honours, masters coursework, and PhD students. I am a strong support of "Open Science" and believe that sharing our tools, data, and results helps to accelerate the progress of our research fields.
AUMAG
The maglev research group (AUMAG) in The University of Adelaide has worked with industry partners from applications ranging from vibration control, to wave energy conversion, to novel actuator design. Our research ranges from exploring the fundamental relationships governing rare earth permanent magnets and electromagnet to applied investigations in applications such as quasi-zero stiffness magnetic springs, direct drive magnetic motors, energy harvesting devices, and high-rise maglev elevators.
Biomechanics
My interests in biomechanics centre around the dynamic simulation of human movement, which encompasses a broad set of sub-disciplines including musculoskeletal modelling, inverse kinematics and dynamics optimisations, motor control, and body segment parameter estimation. We have developed a fast and low-cost method for 3D scanning the human body, which generates data for estimating properties such as mass, centroid, and moment of inertia for the individual segments of a participant in the lab.
