Coarsening of equiaxed microstructure in the semisolid state of aluminum 7075 alloy through SIMA processing (2011)
Journal Article

In the present study, the coarsening mechanism of equiaxed grains in the semisolid state of aluminum 7075 alloy, treated via strain induced melting activation process, was investigated. The kinetics of equiaxed grain growth in the semisolid state of... Read More about Coarsening of equiaxed microstructure in the semisolid state of aluminum 7075 alloy through SIMA processing.

Correlation between solid fraction and tensile properties of semisolid RAP processed aluminum alloys (2011)
Journal Article

Recrystallization and remelting (RAP), a promising route for thixoforming process, was used to process three aluminum alloys, AA2024, AA6061, and A356, under experimental conditions designed to yield various solid fractions (liquid fractions) within...

Modelling the material flow and web tension in the vertical form-fill-seal packaging process (2011)
Journal Article

Vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) machines are widely used to form bags for packaging products such as confectionary and snack food. One critical component of the machine is the forming shoulder, which needs to manipulate, without damage, the packaging...

Capturing constraint evolution: A technique to preserve and handle design knowledge (2011)
Journal Article

Product development can be considered as the evolutionary and iterative process of recognition, formulation and satisfaction of constraints. These become the rationale driving the design to the final specifications, with the evolution of constraints...

Development of an autonomous unmanned aerial system to collect time-stamped samples from the atmosphere and localize potential pathogen sources (2011)
Journal Article

This paper presents the hardware development and testing of a new concept for air sampling via the integration of a prototype spore trap onboard an unmanned aerial system (UAS). We propose the integration of a prototype spore trap onboard a UAS to al...

Allosteric interactions across native adenosine-A 3 receptor homodimers: Quantification using single-cell ligand-binding kinetics (2011)
Journal Article

A growing awareness indicates that many G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) exist as homodimers, but the extent of the cooperativity across the dimer interface has been largely unexplored. Here, measurement of the dissociation kinetics of a fluoresce...

Knowledge networks for innovation: From theory into practice, the case for SMEs (2011)
Journal Article

This paper is part of an externally funded three year Network for Innovation (iNET), whose main goal is to improve the innovative capacities of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Aerospace and Advanced Engineering (AAE) across the South West of...

Comprehensive distribution network fault location using the distributed parameter model (2011)
Journal Article

A typical low-or medium-voltage distribution feeder consists of numerous branches as well as laterals and heterogenic conductor lines. The lack of measurement points and the presence of unbalanced loads make it more complicated for the construction o...
