Measurement assisted assembly for high accuracy aerospace manufacturing (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Drouot, A., Zhao, R., Irving, L., Sanderson, D., & Ratchev, S. Measurement assisted assembly for high accuracy aerospace manufacturing. Presented at 16th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing (INCOM 2018)

Measurement Assisted Assembly is a key concept for the modernisation of aerospace assembly processes, i.e. improving their efficiency while reducing the manufacturing costs. This concept suggests a paradigm shift in the assembly of high-complexity pr... Read More about Measurement assisted assembly for high accuracy aerospace manufacturing.

Conceptual framework for ubiquitous cyber-physical assembly systems in airframe assembly (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sanderson, D., Chaplin, J. C., & Ratchev, S. Conceptual framework for ubiquitous cyber-physical assembly systems in airframe assembly. Presented at 16th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing (INCOM 2018)

Current sectoral drivers for the manufacturing of complex products - such as airframe assembly -require new manufacturing system paradigms to meet them. In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework for cyber-physical systems driven by ubiquitous...

Common shared system model for evolvable assembly systems (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sanderson, D., Chaplin, J., & Ratchev, S. Common shared system model for evolvable assembly systems. Presented at Model-Based Enterprise Summit 2018

A vital aspect of distributed control in an adaptable production system is coherence between each system resource. The Evolvable Assembly Systems project addresses this challenge using a common shared system model. This paper provides an overview of...

Functional modelling in evolvable assembly systems (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sanderson, D., Chaplin, J. C., & Ratchev, S. Functional modelling in evolvable assembly systems. Presented at 8th International Precision Assembly Seminar

The design and reconfiguration of adaptive production systems is a key driver in modern advanced manufacturing. We summarise the use of an ap-proach from the field of functional modelling to capture the function, behaviour, and structure of a system....
