Development of a feature recognition module for tapered and curved base features. (2007)
Journal Article
ARIVAZHAGAN, A., MEHTA, N.K. and JAIN, P.K. 2008. Development of a feature recognition module for tapered and curved base features. International journal of advanced manufacturing technology [online], 39(3-4), pages 319-332. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1007/s00170-007-1212-8

This paper presents a feature recognition module which uses the B-rep details extracted from the STandard for Exchange of Product (STEP) format to recognize the manufacturing features on a prismatic part. It adopts the syntactic pattern recognition t... Read More about Development of a feature recognition module for tapered and curved base features..

A combustion model sensitivity study for CH4/H2 bluff-body stabilized flame. (2007)
Journal Article
HOSSAIN, M. and MALALASEKERA, W. 2007. A combustion model sensitivity study for CH4/H2 bluff-body stabilized flame. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, part C: journal of mechanical engineering science [online], 221(11), pages 1377-1390. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1243/09544062JMES336

The objective of the current work is to assess the performance of different combustion models in predicting turbulent non-premixed combustion in conjunction with the k-ε turbulence model. The laminar flamelet, equilibrium chemistry, constrained equil... Read More about A combustion model sensitivity study for CH4/H2 bluff-body stabilized flame..

Computational analysis of fibre bonding in the through-air process. (2007)
Journal Article
HOSSAIN, M., ACAR, M. and MALALASEKERA, W. 2007. Computational analysis of fibre bonding in the through-air process. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, part E: journal of process mechanical engineering [online], 221(2), pages 69-75. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1243/0954408JPME104

Through-air bonding is one of the thermal methods of bonding fibres in the production of non-woven webs. A computational study of the formation of bond point between two bicomponent fibres during the through-air bonding process is reported in this pa...

Wind turbine maintenance optimisation: principles of quantitative maintenance optimisation. (2007)
Journal Article
ANDRAWUS, J.A., WATSON, J. and KISHK, M. 2007. Wind turbine maintenance optimisation: principles of quantitative maintenance optimisation. Wind engineering [online], 31(2), pages 101-110. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1260/030952407781494467

Maintenance optimisation is a crucial issue for industries that utilise physical assets due to its impact on costs, risks and performance. Current quantitative maintenance optimisation techniques include Modelling System Failures MSF (using monte-car...
