The effect of ferrite phases on the micromechanical response and crack initiation in the intercritical heat-affected zone of a welded 9Cr martensitic steel
(Wiley, 2018-02-08)
This paper presents a crystal plasticity model to predict the tensile response and crack initiation in a mixed ferrite-martensite material with a low volume fraction of pro-eutectoid ferrite, representative of a welding-induced ...
A physically-based creep damage model for effects of different precipitate types
(Elsevier, 2016-10-13)
The development of a new precipitate coarsening continuum damage mechanics (CDM) model to simulate the multi-precipitate strengthening mechanisms present in 9Cr steels under high temperature creep deformation is presented ...
Permeability of carbon fibre PEEK composites for cryogenic storage tanks of future space launchers
(Elsevier, 2017-06-15)
This work presents an experimental investigation into the permeability of carbon fibre (CF) polyetheretherketone (PEEK) for cryogenic storage tanks for space applications. The effects of cryogenic cycling, manufacturing ...
Latent space mapping for generation of object elements with corresponding data annotation
(Elsevier, 2018-10-25)
Deep neural generative models such as Variational Auto-Encoders (VAE) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) give promising results in estimating the data distribution across a range of machine learning fields of ...
Thought-piece on the effectiveness of contemporary project management and its top performing enablers
(IEEE, 2021-06-10)
One of the most important factors for project success is effective contemporary project management. The aim of this study is to provide project manager practitioners with access to the successful contemporary project ...
Strength grading of timber in the UK and Ireland in 2021
(Taylor & Francis, 2022-03-19)
This paper summarises the state of the art for strength grading of construction timber grown in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. It includes the latest approvals based on recent research on spruce, larch and ...
An evaluation of Lean and Six Sigma methodologies in the national health service
(Emerald, 2021-10-18)
The purpose of this paper is to conduct an empirical study derived from previous
literature from the perspective of benefits, tools and techniques, Continuous Improvement (CI) and Quality Improvement (QI) methodologies, ...
Characterisation of LCF performance of X100 weld-joints: Mechanistic yield strength modelling, finite element analyses and DIC testing
(Elsevier, 2021-03-26)
This paper is concerned with the effect of welding on the fatigue behaviour of X100 material for steel catenary risers. The methodology includes both modelling and experimental characterisation. The modelling combines (i) ...
Finite element simulation and experimental validation of fretting wear
(Elsevier, 2003-10-30)
A finite element-based method is presented for simulating both the fretting wear and the evolution of fretting variables with number of wear cycles in a cylinder-on-flat fretting configuration for application to aeroengine ...
The effect of slip regime on fretting wear-induced stress evolution
(Elsevier, 2004-02-20)
A numerical approach to simulate fretting wear, based on a modified version of the Archard equation, is applied to a cylinder-on-flat fretting configuration for gross sliding and partial slip conditions. The evolution of ...
