A neural network approach for determining spatial and geometry dependent Green's functions for thermal stress approximation in power plant header components (2018)
Journal Article
Rouse, J., Hyde, C., & Morris, A. (2018). A neural network approach for determining spatial and geometry dependent Green's functions for thermal stress approximation in power plant header components. International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 168, 269-288. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpvp.2018.10.020

The trend in power generation to operate plant with a greater frequency of on/partial/off load conditions creates several concerns for the long term structural integrity of many high temperature components. The Green's function method has been used f...

A case study investigation into the effects of spatially dependent convection coefficients on the fatigue response of a power plant header component (2018)
Journal Article
Rouse, J., Zacharzewski, P., Hyde, C., Jefferson-Loveday, R. J., Morris, A., & Kyaw, S. (2018). A case study investigation into the effects of spatially dependent convection coefficients on the fatigue response of a power plant header component. International Journal of Fatigue, 113, 137-148. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijfatigue.2018.03.032

Societal and environmental pressures are forcing thermal power plant operators to deviate greatly from the generation strategies of the past. The application of high frequency start up/shut down/partial load cycles to components that may well be outs...

Creep behaviour of inconel 718 processed by laser powder bed fusion (2018)
Journal Article
Xu, Z., Hyde, C., Tuck, C., & Clare, A. (2018). Creep behaviour of inconel 718 processed by laser powder bed fusion. Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 256, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmatprotec.2018.01.040

Additive manufacturing lends itself well to the manufacture of aerospace parts due to the high complexity and small volume of many components found in modern aero engines. By exploiting additive manufacturing design freedoms, enhanced part functional... Read More about Creep behaviour of inconel 718 processed by laser powder bed fusion.
