A reliability approach for the MEA power system architecture design optimization problem (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Recalde, A., Bozhko, S., Atkin, J., & Hill, C. (2018). A reliability approach for the MEA power system architecture design optimization problem. In 2018 IEEE International Conference on Electrical Systems for Aircraft, Railway, Ship Propulsion and Road Vehicles & International Transportation Electrification Conference (ESARS-ITEC)

In the literature, there has been thorough research on reliability-based design in different fields. However, aircraft power system investigations have mostly dealt with sub-system optimization. Hence, there is considerable potential to excel innova... Read More about A reliability approach for the MEA power system architecture design optimization problem.

Human performance and strategies while solving an aircraft routing and sequencing problem: an experimental approach (2018)
Journal Article
Argyle, E. M., Houghton, R. J., Atkin, J., de Maere, G., Moore, T., & Morvan, H. (2018). Human performance and strategies while solving an aircraft routing and sequencing problem: an experimental approach. Cognition, Technology and Work, 20(3), 425–441. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10111-018-0480-4

As airport resources are stretched to meet increasing demand for services, effective use of ground infrastructure is increasingly critical for ensuring operational efficiency. Work in operations research has produced algorithms providing airport towe...

To kit or not to kit: analysing the value of model-based kitting for additive manufacturing (2018)
Journal Article
Khajavi, S. H., Baumers, M., Holmström, J., Özcan, E., Atkin, J., Jackson, W. G., & Li, W. (2018). To kit or not to kit: analysing the value of model-based kitting for additive manufacturing. Computers in Industry, 98, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compind.2018.01.022

The use of additive manufacturing (AM) for the production of functional parts is increasing. Thus, AM based practices that can reduce supply chain costs gain in importance. We take a forward-looking approach and study how AM can be used more effectiv... Read More about To kit or not to kit: analysing the value of model-based kitting for additive manufacturing.
