The effect of laser transformation notching on the controlled fracture of a high carbon (C70S6 ) steel (2008)
Journal Article
Zhang, D., Harris, S. J., McCartney, D., Pashby, I., Powell, J., Shipway, P., & Voisey, K. (2008). The effect of laser transformation notching on the controlled fracture of a high carbon (C70S6 ) steel. Materials Science and Engineering: A, 489(1-2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.msea.2007.12.040

A high carbon (C70S6) steel has been laser surface treated using CO2 and Diode lasers in order to produce an embrittled region to act as a fracture notch. Such a process has been investigated as a precursor to the fracture splitting of automotive eng...

CO2 reduction through low cost electrification of the diesel powertrain at 48V
Journal Article
Milton, G., Blore, P., Tufail, K., Coates, B. P., Newbigging, I., Cooper, A., & Shayler, P. J. (in press). CO2 reduction through low cost electrification of the diesel powertrain at 48V. SAE Technical Papers,

In order to achieve fleet average CO2 targets, mass market adoption of low CO2 technologies is required. Application of low cost technologies across a large number of vehicles is more cost-effective in reducing fleet CO2 than deploying high-impact, c...

Modal Control of Vibration in Rotating Machines and Other Generally Damped Systems
Journal Article
Generally Damped Systems

Second order matrix equations arise in the description of real dynamical systems. Traditional modal control approaches utilise the eigenvectors of the undamped system to diagonalise the system matrices. A regrettable consequence of this approach is t...

Coagulation equations with mass loss
Journal Article
Wattis, J. A., McCartney, D. G., & Gudmundsson, T. Coagulation equations with mass loss. Journal of Engineering Mathematics, 49,

We derive and solve models for coagulation with mass loss arising, for example, from industrial processes in which growing inclusions are lost from the melt by colliding with the wall of the vessel. We consider a variety of loss laws and a variety... Read More about Coagulation equations with mass loss.
