Finite element modelling of the thermo-mechanical behaviour of a 9Cr martensitic steel
(Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, 2013-01-01)A multi-axial, unified sinh viscoplastic material model has been developed to model the behaviour of advanced materials subjected to high temperature cyclic loading. The material model accounts for rate-dependent effects ... -
Fretting fatigue and wear of spline couplings: From laboratory testing to industrial application through computational modelling
(World Scientific Publishing Europe Limited, 2022-04)One of the major challenges for fretting fatigue design is the bridging of the gap between laboratory tests, including associated theoretical and computer models, typically constrained to simplified loading conditions, ... -
Implementation of an ambient intelligence (AmI) system in a manufacturing SME
(IOS Press, 2008)SME are facing greater challenges due to increased labour cost and reduced cycle times. To adapt to this change more effectively and efficiently they need systems in place that adapt to change easily and seamlessly. This ... -
Knowledge sharing in manufacturing SMEs: survey findings and analysis
(IOS Press, 2006)This paper reports on it study of European manufacturing SMEs in the metallurgical sector. The goal of the research is to ascertain the extent and nature of knowledge sharing that takes place within these organisations; ... -
Towards effective knowledge management: a requirements analysis of European manufacturing SMEs
(IOS Press, 2006)Knowledge is a key resource that must be managed within European organisations in general, and because of their importance to the economy Manufacturing SMEs in particular. The key challenges facing such organisations are ...
