Journal Article
Cantero-Chinchilla, S., Chiachío, M., Chiachío, J., Chronopoulos, D., & Jones, A. (2019). A robust Bayesian methodology for damage localization in plate-like structures using ultrasonic guided-waves. Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, 122, 192-205. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ymssp.2018.12.021

SHM methods for damage detection and localization in plate-like structures have typically relied on signal post-processing techniques applied to ultrasonic guided-waves. The time of flight is one of these signals features which has been extensively u...

A Bayesian time-of-flight estimation for ultrasonic damage detection (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Cantero-Chinchilla, S., Chiachío-Ruano, J., Chiachío-Ruano, M., Jones, A., Essa, Y., & Martín de la Escalera, F. (2018). A Bayesian time-of-flight estimation for ultrasonic damage detection.

SHM methods for damage detection and localisation in plate-like structures have typically relied on post-processing of ultrasonic guided waves (GWs) features. The time-of-flight is one of these features, which has been extensively used by the SHM com... Read More about A Bayesian time-of-flight estimation for ultrasonic damage detection.

Operational vibration shape measurement of piezoceramic disc actuator using digital image correlation vibrometry with a single reference signal (2018)
Journal Article
Jones, I., Jabbal, M., & Buss, T. (2018). Operational vibration shape measurement of piezoceramic disc actuator using digital image correlation vibrometry with a single reference signal. Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 1106, 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1106/1/012032

© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. This paper describes the enhancement and application of a digital image correlation (DIC) vibrometry method which avoids the need for high speed cameras. The underlying technique, described earlier by...

Small punch creep testing (SPCT) of thin disc specimens can be considered as a useful technique for determination of creep properties of exposed components of power generation and other thermal structures. Large viscoplastic strain in materials leads... Read More about Small punch creep property evaluation by finite element of Kocks-Mecking-Estrin model for P91 at elevated temperature.

A numerical study of variability in the manufacturing process of thick composite parts (2018)
Journal Article
Matveev, M., Belnoue, J., Nixon-Pearson, O., Ivanov, D., Long, A., Hallett, S., & Jones, I. (2019). A numerical study of variability in the manufacturing process of thick composite parts. Composite Structures, 208, 23-32. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2018.09.092

Experiments show that different processing conditions lead to different levels of compaction and variability in the thickness. This paper presents an analysis of processing conditions and their effects on consolidation of thick composite components....

Development of methods for optimisation of complex 3D weave geometries (2018)
Journal Article
Spackman, G., Brown, L., & Jones, I. (2018). Development of methods for optimisation of complex 3D weave geometries. IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 406(conference 1), Article 012029. https://doi.org/10.1088/1757-899X/406/1/012029

The development of 3D weaves has resulted in the ability to produce near net shaped preforms, with the additional advantage over unidirectional lay-ups and 2D weaves of greater delamination resistance provided by through-thickness reinforcement. 3D w...
