Geometric morphometrics for 3D dense surface correspondence: population comparisons of shoulder bone morphology
Published 2019“…Discussion: In general, it was observed that the two populations means can be significantly different in shape but not in form. An improved understanding of these observed shape and form differences has utility for shoulder arthroplasty prosthesis design and may also be useful for orthopaedic surgeons during surgical preoperative planning.…”

Investigating the use of ray tracing for signal-level radar simulation in space monitoring applications: a comparison of radio propagation models
Published 2023“…As such, this thesis proposes an open-source, ray-traced radar simulator that models the interactions between spaceborne targets and terrestrial radar systems. This utilises a ray-tracing algorithm to simulate the effects of debris size, shape, orientation, and material properties when computing radar signals in a typical simulation. …”
