Belonging, trust and social isolation: the move on-line during the time of COVID - A longitudinal study.

The move to on-line teaching in UK higher education was swift and dramatic as the Covid pandemic drove society into lockdown. Programmes and modules traditionally taught face to face were suddenly converted to be delivered in an on-line format. This research explores the experience of this process over an academic year, at all levels of educational progression, from first year undergraduates, to post-graduates on a one-year programme.

A Novel Complete-Surface-Finding Algorithm for Online Surface Scanning with Limited View Sensors.

Robotised Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) has revolutionised the field, increasing the speed of repetitive scanning procedures and ability to reach hazardous environments. Application of robot-assisted NDT within specific industries such as remanufacturing and Aersopace, in which parts are regularly moulded and susceptible to non-critical deformation has however presented drawbacks. In these cases, digital models for robotic path planning are not always available or accurate.
