Nonplanar photolithography with computer-generated holograms (2005)
Journal Article

We outline a method for accomplishing photolithography on grossly nonplanar substrates. First we compute an approximation of the diffraction pattern that will produce the desired light-intensity distribution on the substrate to be patterned. This pat...

Photolithography on grossly non-planar substrates (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Within the electronics industry, photolithography is the primary technique by which patterns are transferred from mask to substrate. The substrates are either semiconductor wafers or printed circuit boards, both of which are nominally flat. The growt... Read More about Photolithography on grossly non-planar substrates.

Non-parametric 3D Surface Completion (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Improving the reliability of wind turbine generation and its impact on overall distribution network reliability. (2005)

Surface micromachined membranes for wafer level packaging (2005)
Journal Article

Novel surface micromachined membranes have been developed for wafer level packaging and polymer encapsulation. Laterally unconstrained electroforming allows small etch holes to be included in thick membranes whilst only requiring a thin, low stress,...

Rapid manganese removal from mine waters using an aerated packed-bed bioreactor (2005)
Journal Article

In the UK, the Environmental Quality Standard for manganese has recently been lowered to 30 µg/L (annual average), which is less than the UK Drinking Water Inspectorate's Maximum Permitted Concentration Value (50 µg/L). Current passive treatment syst... Read More about Rapid manganese removal from mine waters using an aerated packed-bed bioreactor.

Numerical modelling of compensation grouting above shallow tunnels (2005)
Journal Article

Passive treatment of mn-rich mine water : using fluorescence to observe microbiological activity (2005)
Journal Article

Conventionally, limestones have been used in passive mine water treatment systems. Limestones with the highest proportion of calcite are recommended since they have the greatest long-term alkalinity generating potential. Manganese is present in mine...

A Non-parametric Approach to Realistic Surface Completion in 3D Environments (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Object Oriented Design of Parallel and Sequential Finite Element Codes (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The Finite Element (FE) Method is a widely accepted general purpose numerical modelling tool. Typical FE programs consist of several hundred thousand lines of procedural code and many complex data structures. Alternative approaches, based on object o...

Non-Planar Interconnect (2005)
Journal Article

Purpose – This paper describes a method for patterning fine line interconnections over non-planar surfaces and introduces the idea of using holographic masks for more challenging geometries. Design/methodology/approach – A photolithographic method fo... Read More about Non-Planar Interconnect.

On wave boundary elements for radiation and scattering problems with piecewise constant impedance (2005)
Journal Article

Discrete methods of numerical analysis have been used successfully for decades for the solution of problems involving wave diffraction, etc. However, these methods, including the finite element and boundary element methods, can require a prohibitivel...

Design aspects of compliant, soft layer bearings for an experimental hip prosthesis (2005)
Journal Article

Currently, an artificial hip joint can be expected to last, on average, in excess of 15 years with failure due, in the majority of cases, to late aseptic loosening of the acetabular component. A realistic alternative to the problem of wear in convent... Read More about Design aspects of compliant, soft layer bearings for an experimental hip prosthesis.
