More than just a game: the role of simulation in the teaching of product design and entrepreneurship to mechanical engineering students
(2016-09-08)
The purpose of this work is to contribute to the debate on the best pedagogical approach to developing undergraduate mechanical engineering skills to meet the requirements of contemporary complex working environments. The ...
Real-time monitoring to investigate structural performance of hybrid precast concrete educational buildings
(Taylor & Francis, 2016-11-22)
The motivation and implementation of a real-time structural health monitoring strategy to determine the structural performance of a number of educational buildings recently constructed in Ireland is discussed in this paper. ...
Real-time monitoring of a hybrid precast and in-situ concrete flat slab system
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
This paper presents a scheme developed for instrumentation and monitoring of the structural performance of a hybrid precast and in-situ concrete flat slab system employed in an educational building. The system contains a ...
Behaviour of hybrid concrete lattice girder flat slab system using insitu structural health monitoring
(2016)
In recent decades, Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has emerged as an increasingly important tool in Civil Engineering to understand how structures behave during construction and operation. Although SHM is not a new ...
Potential applications for image-based systems in structural engineering
(2016)
This paper presents a series of examples where systems based on images have been used to quantify deformation and strain fields for different applications. The objective of this work is to highlight the strengths and ...
IT enabled R&D for business value in a global framework
(Springer, 2016)
Historically innovation research and development (R&D) has been investigated in terms of product and more recently service applications. The central argument of this paper is that information technology can support R&D in ...
Incubation centres and the teaching of entrepreneurship: bridging theory and practice
(2016-04-04)
This paper argues that collaboration between Higher Education Institutions and Incubation Centres can contribute to the embedding of entrepreneurship in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines. ...
