Associate Professor, Integrated Learning.

Stuart Palmer is a member of Faculty of Science, Engineering and Built Environment at Deakin. His research focuses on the textile surface finish of products like wool and cotton.

He specialises in computer image analysis of textile surface finish and collaborates with scientists and industries to objectively measure the quality of textile products; for example, quantifying pilling on products such as wool. Stuart’s research directly impacts textile companies as they are interested in the aesthetics and value of their products. His work is a nice example of the application of mathematical modelling to an engineering/technology problem.
