Journal Article
Townsend, A., Racasan, R., Leach, R., Senin, N., Thompson, A., Ramsey, A., …Blunt, L. (2018). An interlaboratory comparison of X-ray computed tomography measurement for texture and dimensional characterisation of additively manufactured parts. Additive Manufacturing, 23, 422-432. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.addma.2018.08.013

This paper presents the results of the CT-STARR (CT-Surface Texture for Additive Round Robin) Stage 1 interlaboratory comparison. The study compared the results obtained for the extraction of areal surface texture data per ISO 25178-2 from five X-ray...

Band gap behavior of optimal one-dimensional composite structures with an additive manufactured stiffener (2018)
Journal Article
Ampatzidis, T., Leach, R. K., Tuck, C., & Chronopoulos, D. (2018). Band gap behavior of optimal one-dimensional composite structures with an additive manufactured stiffener. Composites Part B: Engineering, 153, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compositesb.2018.07.012

In this work, the banded behaviour of composite one-dimensional structures with an additive manufactured stiffener is examined. A finite element method is used to calculate the stiffness, mass and damping matrices, and periodic structure theory is us...

Error modelling and validation of a high-precision five degree of freedom hybrid mechanism for high-power high-repetition rate laser operations (2018)
Journal Article
Karim, S., Piano, S., Leach, R. K., & Tolley, M. (2018). Error modelling and validation of a high-precision five degree of freedom hybrid mechanism for high-power high-repetition rate laser operations. Precision Engineering, 54, 182-197. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.precisioneng.2018.04.018

The accuracy, repeatability and speed requirements of high-power laser operations demand the employment of five degree of freedom motion control solutions that are capable of positioning and orientating the target with respect to the laser(s)-target...
