Comparative strength and stability analysis of conventional and lighter composite flexible risers in ultra-deep water subsea environment. (2022)
Journal Article
NAMMI, S.K., GUPTA, R. and PANCHOLI, K. [2022]. Comparative strength and stability analysis of conventional and lighter composite flexible risers in ultra-deep water subsea environment. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part E: journal of process mechanical engineering [online], OnlineFirst. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1177/09544089221144394

The hybrid flexible risers have a multi-layered structure and use thermoplastic composite for the pressure and tensile armour. In contrast, a conventional flexible riser uses heavier carbon steel as armour which significantly contributes to its weigh...

Tuneable magnetic nanocomposites for remote self-healing. (2022)
Journal Article
GUPTA, R., GUPTA, P., FOOTER, C., STENNING, G.B.G., DARR, J.A. and PANCHOLI, K. 2022. Tuneable magnetic nanocomposites for remote self-healing. Scientific reports [online], 12, article 10180. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-14135-8

When polymer composites containing magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are exposed to an alternating magnetic field, heat is generated to melt the surrounding polymer locally, partially filling voids across any cracks or deformities. Such materials are of... Read More about Tuneable magnetic nanocomposites for remote self-healing..

Optimising crystallisation during rapid prototyping of Fe3O4-PA6 polymer nanocomposite component. (2022)
Journal Article
GUPTA, R., NJUGUNA, J. and PANCHOLI, K. 2022. Optimising crystallisation during rapid prototyping of Fe3O4-PA6 polymer nanocomposite component. Journal of composites science [online], 6(3), article 83. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/jcs6030083

Polymer components capable of self-healing can rapidly be manufactured by injecting the monomer (ε-caprolactam), activator and catalyst mixed with a small amount of magnetic nanoparticles into a steel mould. The anionic polymerisation of the monomer... Read More about Optimising crystallisation during rapid prototyping of Fe3O4-PA6 polymer nanocomposite component..
