Radio Frequency Sensing for Non-Destructive Testing of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Composite Materials for Structural Health Monitoring (Comp-Health)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2014,

It is well recognised that composites have a significant part to play in reducing the weight of many structural engineering components, given its superior strength-to-weight ratio. These features help on reducing energy requirements and enabling renewable energy generation through construction of light-weighing devices. Although the aerospace and renewable sectors are currently taking forward the ...

INTELLIGENT WELDING CLAMP DESIGN SOFTWARE USING COMPUTER-AIDED OPTIMIZATION FOR SMES TO ACHIEVE HIGH PRECISION ASSEMBLY (CLAMPIT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

Welding workshops operated by SME companies are a basic unit of industrial manufacturing. Economic pressures are forcing these firms to find solutions for wasteful and time consuming tasks, like creation of custom clamping assemblies for each set of pieces to be welded. The design and fabrication of the clamping assembly itself involves time and costs both for design and fabrication. These clampin ...

Decision making and augmented reality support for automatic welding installations (MARWIN)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2014,

"Robot welding is critical to welding automation in many industries and it is estimated that as much as 25% of all industrial robots are being used for welding tasks. The biggest challenge for small companies is to have flexible automation that can be set up quickly and can be switched over to another product line. The current proposal addresses the need to increase the competitiveness of welding ...

Welding process planning and parametric pricing software solution for SMEs (WELD-IT)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"Welding is a major route of fabricating steel and thermoplastic structures and therefore approaches a reasonable portion of industrial and other sectors. When designing a joint, from an engineering point of view, many aspects have to be taken into account such as amount of load, nature of load, sheet thickness, material, welding technology, etc. But on the other hand, as an industrial process, th ...
