A heuristic method for lot-sizing in multi-stage systems (1997)
Journal Article
This article considers the lot-sizing problem in multi-stage production settings with capacity-constrained resources. This problem deals with the determination of a production plan for the end item and its components in order to meet the forecast dem...

Selecting the best population: A decision theoretic approach: The case of Pareto distribution (1985)
Report
The main ideas in selecting the best populations meeting some prescribed optimality criterion have been mooted originally by Bechchofer and Gupta and the subject has gone from strength to strength by several contributions by several statisticians ove...

Bearing failure of pseudo-ductile thin ply angle-ply laminates
Presentation / Conference Contribution
The aim of this work is to investigate the bearing failure of mechanically fastened joints between thin-ply angle-ply laminates with central 0° plies. To achieve this, pseudo-ductile laminates with two different layups [±6/0]s2 and [±2/0]s4 were... Read More about Bearing failure of pseudo-ductile thin ply angle-ply laminates.
Reduced tensile notch-sensitivity in pseudo-ductile thin ply composites
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Pseudo-ductile thin-ply composites loaded in tension exhibit a non-linear stress-strain response with a plateau, analogous to yielding in a metal. This provides an alternative means for load redistribution at stress concentrations, giving reduced not... Read More about Reduced tensile notch-sensitivity in pseudo-ductile thin ply composites.
Thin ply carbon/glass hybrid laminates to activate new damage mechanisms under indentation
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Low velocity impacts on composite laminates can cause a significant amount of delamination that is often referred to as barely visible impact damage (BVID). This damage can cause significant degradation of structural properties, especially the compre...

Self-warning hybrid composite patches for repairing cracked aluminium panels
Presentation / Conference Contribution
In this paper, a new concept for health-moninoring of bonded patch repairs is presented. Aerospace structures using aluminium panels occasionally crack and bonded composite patches are one of the repair methods available to maintain the integrity of...

Development and evaluation of a novel piezoelectric PVDF sensor as a load spectrum counter
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Engineering structures, such as aircraft, marine vessels, buildings and offshore platforms, are subjected to a range of uncertain dynamic loadings, due to changes in operational and environmental conditions, etc. Unfortunately, the load spectrum of t...
