Optimal Manufacturing Configuration Selection: Sequential Decision Making and Optimization using Reinforcement Learning (2023)
Journal Article

In manufacturing, different costs must be considered when selecting the optimal manufacturing configuration. Costs include manufacturing costs, material costs, labor costs, and overhead costs. Optimal manufacturing configurations are those that minim... Read More about Optimal Manufacturing Configuration Selection: Sequential Decision Making and Optimization using Reinforcement Learning.

Cost, rate, and robustness (2023)
Book Chapter

This chapter outlines the most important considerations for the economic evaluation of composites, as assessing both cost and performance in parallel is critical for designing and manufacturing efficient applications. The cost of raw materials is oft... Read More about Cost, rate, and robustness.

Towards the Contemporary Conservation of Cultural Heritages: An Overview of Their Conservation History (2023)
Journal Article

This paper seeks contemporary cultural heritage conservation principles by reviewing its history, starting from the 18th century, in practices, international documents, and the literature on this topic. It intends to lay a foundation to avoid damagin... Read More about Towards the Contemporary Conservation of Cultural Heritages: An Overview of Their Conservation History.

Introduction (2023)
Book Chapter

Fibre-reinforced polymer composites are acknowledged to offer some of the highest specific properties (stiffness, strength) of any engineering materials, but this chapter takes a look at why these materials are not more widely adopted for general str... Read More about Introduction.

Comparing different approaches of agent-based occupancy modelling for predicting realistic electricity consumption in office buildings (2023)
Journal Article

Having a good grasp on modelling the dynamics of occupants for estimating electricity consumption in office buildings is a vital asset for realistic predictions. Nowadays, agent-based models are widely used for this purpose. Previous approaches to mo...

Design and Manufacture of Structural Composites (2023)
Book

Design and Manufacture of Structural Composites provides an overview of the main manufacturing challenges encountered when processing fibre-reinforced composite materials. Composites are unique in that the material is created at the same time as the... Read More about Design and Manufacture of Structural Composites.

Two-dimensional to three-dimensional dry fibre preforming (2023)
Book Chapter

Preforming is the process of converting two-dimensional (2D) intermediate fibre products, such as fabrics and mats, into complex three-dimensional (3D) shapes to resemble the geometry of the final component. Preforming is a necessary step for all liq... Read More about Two-dimensional to three-dimensional dry fibre preforming.

Storage Sites for Carbon Dioxide in the North Sea and Their Particular Characteristics (2023)
Journal Article

This paper reviews and evaluates work on the structural complexity of the potential carbon dioxide storage sites in the North Sea, including the nature of the reservoir structures, the reservoir rocks, the presence of inter-layers, faults, and fractu...
