Journal Article
Hatherell, J., Marmier, A., Dennis, G., Curry, W., Denis, G., & Matthews, J. (2024). An iterative numerical approach to evaluate the variable friction coefficient of steel AMS5643 using ring compression tests. Tribology Transactions, 67(1), 15-21. https://doi.org/10.1080/10402004.2023.2284347

The coefficient of friction is an important variable that must be defined to allow the accurate prediction of the forming geometry and stresses involved in metal forming processes. Literature reports have shown that the coefficient of friction does n...

A methodology to support robotic polishing of moulds integrated with CAD/CAM (2023)
Journal Article
Wang, K., Ding, L., Dailami, F., & Matthews, J. (in press). A methodology to support robotic polishing of moulds integrated with CAD/CAM. Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Systems, https://doi.org/10.1142/S021968672450015X

Typically, the final process in the manufacture of molds is mechanical polishing, a process predominantly conducted manually. This is an important process step to improve the surface quality of the mold without affecting the geometry of the cavity. C...

Exploring the potential for a FEA-based design of experiments to develop design tools for bulk-metal joining processes (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Hatherell, J., Marmier, A., Dennis, G., Curry, W., & Matthews, J. (2023). Exploring the potential for a FEA-based design of experiments to develop design tools for bulk-metal joining processes. In Proceedings of the Design Society (1815-1824). https://doi.org/10.1017/pds.2023.182

Over the last 20 years, finite element analysis (FEA) has become a standard analysis tool for metal joining processes. When FEA tools are combined with design of experiments (DOE) methodologies, academic research has shown the potential for virtual D...
