Optimisation of mechanical properties for a gear steel alloy for aero-engine applications (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Abdallah, Z., Bache, M., Perkins, K., Rawson, M., & Hetherington, J. (2018). Optimisation of mechanical properties for a gear steel alloy for aero-engine applications. . https://doi.org/10.4172/2321-6212-C4-023

The characterization of steel alloys, candidates for employment as a gear material for future gas turbine aero-engine, will be described in the present study. Comparative studies were initially performed on seven potential steel alloy systems, consid...

A robust design of an innovative shaped rebar system using a novel uncertainty model (2018)
Journal Article
Aldoumani, N., Haddad Khodaparast, H., Giannetti, C., Abdallah, Z., Cameron, I. M., Friswell, M. I., & Sienz, J. (2018). A robust design of an innovative shaped rebar system using a novel uncertainty model. Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization, 58(4), 1351-1365. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00158-018-2050-z

The current paper has investigated a newly developed re-bar system by implementing uncertainty models to optimise its geometry. The study of the design parameters of this re-bar system has been carried out utilising a novel uncertainty model that has...

Creep lifing models and techniques (2018)
Book Chapter
Abdallah, Z., Perkins, K., & Arnold, C. (2018). Creep lifing models and techniques. In . T. Arkadiusz Tański, M. Sroka, & A. Zieliński (Eds.), Creep. InTech. https://doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.71826

The deformation of structural alloys presents problems for power plants and aerospace applications due to the demand for elevated temperatures for higher efficiencies and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The materials used in such applications... Read More about Creep lifing models and techniques.
