High precision material processing using ultrashort laser pulses at MHz repetition rates. The continual miniaturisation of mechanical and electronic components for biomedical, aerospace and industrial products is driving the demand for advanced fabrication techniques. Femtosecond laser micromachining in particular is emerging as a critical manufacturing process for these components and other new and unprecedented applications.

The continual miniaturisation of mechanical and electronic components for biomedical, aerospace and industrial products is driving the demand for advanced fabrication techniques. Femtosecond laser micromachining in particular is emerging as a critical manufacturing process for these components and other new and unprecedented applications.
The project will build up strong links between the Photonics Institute in Vienna, Austria, which is noted for their achievements in the development of femtosecond light sources, and the CLA, which has an excellent reputation for its expert knowledge in laser material processing. It is therefore believed to be beneficial for research in both countries.

Robust State Estimation of Complex Multi-Object Systems. Conceptual advances will be made in the area of robust state estimation of complex systems. New design rules will be developed and published in the top international journals and major international conferences. The main benefit of this project will be its direct applications to industrial control problems in the military equipment and manufacturing industries, bio-engineering, and automobile industry. We also build a world class research ....Robust State Estimation of Complex Multi-Object Systems. Conceptual advances will be made in the area of robust state estimation of complex systems. New design rules will be developed and published in the top international journals and major international conferences. The main benefit of this project will be its direct applications to industrial control problems in the military equipment and manufacturing industries, bio-engineering, and automobile industry. We also build a world class research group at the University of New South Wales to focus attention on multi-object state estimation. There will be increased capacity for contract research, international collaboration with leading researchers in the area and high quality Ph.D. graduates in the field of Systems and Control.Read moreRead less
