Realisability of production recipes (2016)
Conference Proceeding
de Silva, L., Felli, P., Chaplin, J. C., Logan, B., Sanderson, D., & Ratchev, S. (2016). Realisability of production recipes. In ECAI 2016 - 22nd European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (1449-1457). https://doi.org/10.3233/978-1-61499-672-9-1449

There is a rising demand for customised products with a high degree of complexity. To meet these demands, manufacturing lines are increasingly becoming autonomous, networked, and intelligent, with production lines being virtualised into a manufacturi...

Investigation of changes in the electrical properties of novel knitted conductive textiles during cyclic loading (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Isaia, C., McNally, D., McMaster, S. A., & Branson, D. T. (2016). Investigation of changes in the electrical properties of novel knitted conductive textiles during cyclic loading. In 2016 38th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC): 16-20 Aug. 2016 (6058-6061). https://doi.org/10.1109/EMBC.2016.7592110

© 2016 IEEE. Combining stainless steel with polyester fibres adds an attractive conductive behaviour to the yarn. Once knitted in such a manner, fabrics develop sensing properties that make the textiles, also known as e-textiles, suitable for smart/w...

Thermal management of a high speed permanent magnet machine for an aeroengine (2016)
Conference Proceeding
La Rocca, A., Xu, Z., Arumugam, P., Pickering, S., Eastwick, C., Gerada, C., & Bozhko, S. (2016). Thermal management of a high speed permanent magnet machine for an aeroengine.

The paper describes the mechanical and thermal design of a high speed, high power density synchronous permanent magnet machine for an aero engine starter generator system with a power rating of 150 kW and maximum speed of 32,000 rpm. As both mechanic... Read More about Thermal management of a high speed permanent magnet machine for an aeroengine.

Contamination of µCMM stylus tips: on-machine inspection (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Feng, X., Lacorne, C., Fernandes, G. Q., Lawes, S., & Kinnell, P. (2016). Contamination of µCMM stylus tips: on-machine inspection.

Contamination adhered to the surface of a µCMM stylus tip significantly impairs the dimensional accuracy of a µCMM system. Regular cleaning of the stylus is essential to minimising the dimensional error but little data exists for determining appropri...

Investigating mechanical characteristics of styli for micro-CMMs (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Ismail, M., Tseng, K., Claverley, J. D., Sheu, D., Chetwynd, D., & Leach, R. K. (2016). Investigating mechanical characteristics of styli for micro-CMMs.

The mechanical characteristics of styli for micro coordinate measuring machines (micro-CMMs) is of importance because of the major effect the styli have on the performance and capability of micro-CMMs. Previous work has focussed on the design of the...

Towards uncertainty in dimensional metrology of surface features for advanced manufacturing (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Musso, G., Senin, N., Galetto, M., & Leach, R. K. (2016). Towards uncertainty in dimensional metrology of surface features for advanced manufacturing.

In previous work, an original approach was developed for the dimensional characterisation of surface features on parts and test artefacts, aimed at supporting researchers involved in the study of advanced manufacturing processes. In the approach, met... Read More about Towards uncertainty in dimensional metrology of surface features for advanced manufacturing.

An integrated measurement method for complex micro-scale geometries (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Rabani, A., Senin, N., Helmli, F., Butler-Smith, P., & Leach, R. K. (2016). An integrated measurement method for complex micro-scale geometries.

Micro-scale geometries are becoming commonplace in many high-precision manufacturing applications. Micro-drilling processes, for example, are being employed for producing holes in demanding applications involving fluid transfer, atomisers and micro-m...

A modified oil lubrication system with flow control to reduce crankshaft bearing friction in a litre 4 cylinder diesel engine (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Shayler, P. J., Cheng, L., Li, Q., & Wahab, E. (in press). A modified oil lubrication system with flow control to reduce crankshaft bearing friction in a litre 4 cylinder diesel engine. In SAE Technical Paper Series. https://doi.org/10.4271/2016-01-1045

The oil distribution system of an automotive light duty engine typically has an oil pump mechanically driven through the front-endancillaries-drive or directly off the crankshaft. Delivery pressure is regulated by a relief valve to provide an oil gal...
