Towards Flexible, Fault Tolerant Hardware Service Wrappers for the Digital Manufacturing on a Shoestring Project (2020)
Journal Article

The adoption of digital manufacturing in small to medium enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector in the UK is low, yet these technologies offer significant promise to boost productivity. Two major causes of this lack of uptake is the high upfr... Read More about Towards Flexible, Fault Tolerant Hardware Service Wrappers for the Digital Manufacturing on a Shoestring Project.

Tolerance allocation: A reliability based optimisation approach (2020)
Journal Article

Tolerance analysis and allocation are two activities of great importance in product development. The mathematical formulation of the latter concerns the establishment and solution of a constraint optimisation problem. In this work, making one step fo...

Enhancing Learning Capabilities of Movement Primitives under Distributed Probabilistic Framework for Assembly Tasks (2020)
Conference Proceeding

This paper presents a novel distributed probabilistic framework based on movement primitives for flexible robots assembly implementation. Since modern advanced industrial cell usually deals with various tasks that are not fixed via-point trajectories...

Affordable data integration approach for production enterprises (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 The Authors. The manufacturing industries in a number of high-labour-cost economies are undergoing a shift towards increased automation and intelligence typified by the ‘Industry 4.0' paradigm. Advances from computer science research including... Read More about Affordable data integration approach for production enterprises.

System condition monitoring through Bayesian change point detection using pump vibrations (2020)
Conference Proceeding

This paper presents a method for vibration analysis and a simple test bench analogue for the solder pumping system in an industrial wave-soldering machine at a Siemens factory. A common machine fault is caused by solder build-up within the pipes of t... Read More about System condition monitoring through Bayesian change point detection using pump vibrations.
