Characterisation and optimisation of transport temperature control units in heat mode
(2005)
The control of air temperature within trailer food-compartment during road transportation of perishable products is critical as it influences the deterioration rate and the quality loss of food more than any other factor. ...
Integrated design to manufacturing process of customised maxillofacial prostheses
(2004)
The results of the CORD feasibility study carried out at the beginning of the present research showed that little research has been done regarding the design and manufacturing processes of large customised titanium implants ...
Development of a method for the characterisation of the compliance and stiffness matrices of uncoupled laminates
(1999)
The mechanical behaviour of composite materials is defined by three matrices of
stiffness/compliance : in-plane, flexure and coupling matrix between in-plane and
flexure. The present work gives a method of test to ...
Development of software models to integrate distributed RFID technologies into management information systems
(2010)
The growth of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technologies within inventory and asset tracking processes during recent years, has caused a corresponding increase in the amounts of tracking data being generated at the ...

Environmental and economic decision support methodology for end-of-life products
(2003)
Many producers are becoming environmentally conscious due to legislative, consumer and business pressures. The proposed EU Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE Directive) sets targets for the reuse ...
Towards a machine enabled semantic framework for the distributed engineering design
(2004)
The overall aim of this thesis is to identify and propose a suitable architectural framework for supporting cooperation processes and therefore enabling semantics within the distributed engineering design environment. The ...
