Why research?
Research is a vital part of my business. I often spend
several weeks studying a particular vehicle system,
designing diagnostic strategies and, often, custom test
equipment, before I start working on a car.
I hope that the material that I post here will enthuse
others who are like-minded. I think collaboration is
essential to the progress of any industry. If you’ve got any
suggestions or comments please be in touch via e-mail.

Welcome to the Research page. This page wouldn’t exist without the great support
of the Wellington Institute of Technology where the author has the honour of
lecturing to Electrical, Mechanical and Civil Engineering students.
What kind of articles to expect?
The material published here will be of interest to
people involved with embedded control design, industrial
automation and also to those who are involved in teaching
these subjects.
I also plan,in a distant future, to publish a series of
articles intended to popularise the key concepts of modern
physics. The laws of physics underpin all the technology
that we use in the industry, Electrical Engineering in my
case. These underpinning concepts are hard to comprehend
and even harder to teach. The situation can be summarised
by the famous saying of Richard Feynman, “I think I can
safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics
(modern physics).” Nevertheless, we all accept these
concepts as being correct due to the relatively long history
of their existence. In my view, if we want to progress out
of the dark ages we need to shed some light on these
otherwise obscure theories.
