Optimal sensor configuration for ultrasonic guided-wave inspection based on value of information (2019)
Journal Article
Cantero-Chinchilla, S., Chiachío, J., Chiachío, M., Chronopoulos, D., & Jones, A. (2020). Optimal sensor configuration for ultrasonic guided-wave inspection based on value of information. Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, 135, Article 106377. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ymssp.2019.106377

Condition-based maintenance critically relies on efficient and reliable structural health monitoring systems, where the number, position and type of sensors are determined according to rational and principled criteria. This paper proposes the use of... Read More about Optimal sensor configuration for ultrasonic guided-wave inspection based on value of information.

Effect of fibre suspension jet stability on alignment quality of discontinuous carbon fibre tapes (2019)
Journal Article
Liu, Z., Turner, T., Wong, K., & Pickering, S. (2019). Effect of fibre suspension jet stability on alignment quality of discontinuous carbon fibre tapes. International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 120, Article 103102. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmultiphaseflow.2019.103102

A hydrodynamic alignment process has been developed for converting discontinuous random carbon fibres into tapes with a highly aligned orientation distribution to greatly improve the applicability of recovered fibres to composite parts....

A continuum damage model for transverse cracking in UD composites of linear viscoelastic behaviour (2019)
Journal Article
Xu, F., Jones, I. A., & Li, S. (2019). A continuum damage model for transverse cracking in UD composites of linear viscoelastic behaviour. Composite Structures, 225, Article 110812. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2019.03.084

A damage model for linear viscoelastic unidirectional (UD) composites undergoing transverse matrix cracking is proposed. The damage representation for the corresponding elastic UD composite with an array of dispersed matrix cracks was derived from Li...
