Oil film thickness measurements on surfaces close to an aeroengine ball bearing using optical techniques (2017)
Conference Proceeding

In a civil aero-engine transmission system a number of bearings are used for shaft location and load support. A bespoke experimental test facility in the University of Nottingham's Gas Turbine and Transmissions Research Centre (G2TRC) was created to...

Application of high speed filming techniques to the study of rearwards melt ejection in laser drilling (2017)
Journal Article

Melt ejection is the dominant material removal mechanism in long, ms, pulse laser drilling of metals, a process with applications such as the drilling of cooling holes in turbine blades. Droplets of molten material are ejected through the entrance ho... Read More about Application of high speed filming techniques to the study of rearwards melt ejection in laser drilling.
