Numerical shape, thickness and stacking sequence optimisation and experimental study of hybrid composite plates under in-plane shear loading (2023)
Journal Article

Shape, thickness and stacking sequence optimisation of a damage tolerant hybrid (GFRP-CFRP) composite laminate is performed using the commercial Optistruct solver. The results of the optimisation study are compared to both a benchmark non-damage tole...

An experimental investigation of the impact response and post-impact shear buckling behaviour of hybrid composite laminates (2023)
Journal Article

This paper investigates the effect of transverse impact loading on the in-plane shear behaviour of two laminate configurations. The extensive experimental studies consider a pure carbon laminate (type 1) and a novel X-shaped carbon/glass laminate (ty...

GA-AHP Method to support robotic polishing process planning (2022)
Journal Article

The finishing stage of mould manufacturing is generally completed via mechanical polishing, manual conducted. Not only is this the most expensive phase of the process but also is currently struggling with a deficit of skilled workers. To address thes...

Mimicking condylar knee to design bio-inspired robotic knee joint based on magnetic resonance imaging (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The process of designing bio-inspired knee joint has been a challenging issue due to the complicated kinematics and dynamics of the human knee joint. This paper addresses this issue by presenting a design methodology that has been used to model the h...

Design, novel quality check and experimental test of an original variable length stepped scarf repair scheme (2021)
Journal Article

The performance of well-established stepped scarf repair schemes for highly loaded composite structures has been studied in previous works. However, none of the proposed repair schemes appear to minimise healthy material removal. Thus, this paper pro...

Model-based information navigation for engineering documents (2020)
Journal Article

Engineering and the manner in which engineers think is largely visual and functional, and yet engineers are typically provided with search engines that are text-based. While software based on a visual and functional ethos exist (CAD for example), whe... Read More about Model-based information navigation for engineering documents.

Towards collaborative robotic polishing of mould and die sets (2019)
Journal Article

Dies and moulds are fundamental elements in the manufacturing of a wide variety of products. The surface polishing of dies and moulds with complex features largely relies upon time-consuming manual work of skilled workers and, as a result of the dimi...

The analysis of tool wear mechanisms in the machining of pre-sintered zirconia dental crowns (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The growth of Digital Dentistry has opened new potentials in the dental restoration sector where personalised restorations could be made in a much shorter time than before. Zirconia has been widely used due to its excellent wear properties and bio-co... Read More about The analysis of tool wear mechanisms in the machining of pre-sintered zirconia dental crowns.

Design of anatomy-based 3D patient-specific knee replacement implant model from medical imaging (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper focuses on the design of an anatomy-based 3D patient-specific knee replacement implant model, which is derived from medical imaging. The investigation extracted the knee profiles from MRI scans to develop a 3D model of the knee, including...

Improving engineering information retrieval by combining TD-IDF and product structure classification (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Engineering Information Management (EIM) and Information Retrieval (IR) systems are central to the day to day running of large engineering organisations. The capture, interrogation, retrieval and presentation of information from design to disposal is...
