A framework for differentiation in composed digital-physical products (2020)
Journal Article

Product-service systems (PSS) composed of physical products and digital services are emerging as an important new product category. In this paper we suggest that the established metaphor of 'layering' is insufficient to capture the diverse ways in wh...

The deformation and elastic anisotropy of a new gyroid-based honeycomb made by laser sintering (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Author(s) The stiffness, anisotropy and structural deformation of three gyroid-based lattices was investigated, with particular focus on a newly proposed honeycomb gyroid. This honeycomb is based on a modified triply periodic minimal surfa... Read More about The deformation and elastic anisotropy of a new gyroid-based honeycomb made by laser sintering.

Generation of graded porous structures by control of process parameters in the selective laser melting of a fixed ratio salt-metal feedstock (2020)
Journal Article

The demonstration of salt dissolution incorporated within laser powder-bed fusion fabrication processes has allowed the creation of complex porous structures without the need for sophisticated design algorithms. This serves to simplify the process, f...

Phase-field modelling of brittle fracture in thin shell elements based on the MITC4+ approach (2020)
Journal Article

We present a phase field based MITC4+ shell element formulation to simulate fracture propagation in thin shell structures. The employed MITC4+ approach renders the element shear- and membrane- locking free, hence providing high-fidelity fracture simu...

Optimal orientation of fibre composites for strength based on Hashin’s criteria optimality conditions (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020, The Author(s). The Hashin’s strength criteria are usually employed in first ply failure and damage-onset analysis of fibre-reinforced composites. This work presents optimality conditions of local material orientations for these criteria, in t...
