• Development of natural rubber based compounds for manufacture of abrasion resistant gloves 

  Ranasinghe, PVSK [Thesis-Abstract]

  Industrial glove industry is a glooming industry which focuses performance enhancement with lowest possible cost. Abrasion resistance is one of the main performance indicators of an industrial glove. Abrasion resistance ...
• Simulation of deployable solar sails 

  Piyumi, K. W. C.; Jayasekara, L. M. M. B.; Herath, H.M.S.T.; Mallikarachchi, H. M. Y. C. [Conference-Abstract]

  Concept of solar sailing which uses solar energy to propel a spacecraft is becoming popular as a low-cost spacecraft propulsion system, especially for high energy-consuming longrange spacecraft. To capture a sufficient ...
• Semi-automated crack detection using computer vision 

  Sujeeka, N; Lowhikan, S; Mallikarachchi, HMYC [Conference-Abstract]

  The characteristics of surface cracks reflect the health state and functional degradation level of structures. Inspection and measurement of cracks on concrete surfaces are therefore of crucial importance and considered ...
• Experimental investigation on torsional behaviour of carbon fiber reinforced polymer strengthened concrete beams curved in horizontal plane 

  Weerasinghe, KAB; Sajinthan, R; Gamage, JCPH [Conference-Abstract]

  Experimentally investigated the torsional resistance of externally bonded, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer(CFRP) strengthened concrete beams curved in the horizontal plane. Twelve beams with radius of curvature 2000 mm and ...
• Optimal design and failure prediction using neural networks 

  Herath, S; Haputhanthri, U [Conference-Abstract]

  Abstract—Topology optimization is the tool of choice in obtaining the initial design of structural components. The resulting optimal design from topology optimization will be the input for subsequent structural optimizations ...
