Application of a staged automated calibration methodology to a partially-retrofitted university building energy model
(Elsevier, 2019-07-10)Deep-retrofit planning for existing buildings demands high accuracy in energy modelling prediction that minimises the gap between actual and simulated scenarios. A large set of interacting variables and uncertainties in ... -
Application of optimization methods to the design of high performance composite pipelines
(Elsevier, 2003-04-23)This paper describes a contribution to the research carried out by a consortium under the BRITE/EURAM programme of the EC on the application of optimisation techniques to problems of engineering design using composite ... -
Optimised analytical models of the dielectric properties of biological tissue
(Elsevier, 2017-02-09)The interaction of electromagnetic fields with the human body is quantified by the dielectric properties of biological tissues. These properties are incorporated into complex numerical simulations using parametric models ... -
Physical experimental static testing and structural design optimisation for a composite wind turbine blade
(Elsevier, 2016-12-10)This study presents experimental testing on a 13 m long glass-fibre epoxy composite wind turbine blade. The results of the test were used to calibrate finite element models. A design optimisation study was then performed ... -
Validation of the multi-objective structural optimisation of a composite wind turbine blade
(Elsevier, 2018-08-01)Structural optimisation of a wind turbine blade is presented in this work. The optimisation was performed using a multi-objective genetic algorithm and finite element modelling to determine the optimal structural design ... -
Web geometry optimisation of novel latticed LVL-webbed timber I-joists
(Elsevier, 2022-12-02)This paper presents the finite element analysis of novel composite timber I-joists with curved latticed webs. The flanges of the joists were made from Norway Spruce whilst the curved latticed webs were made from laminated ...
