Design support for eco-efficiency improvements in manufacturing
(2016-12-21)Eco-efficiency improvements in manufacturing is a controversial subject for researchers, practitioners as well as policy makers. The widely accepted definition of "doing more with less" is not accurate enough to guide the ... -
A method for the numerical analysis of combustion instabilities with an application to afterburner screech
(2015-05-16)This work concerns the prediction of potentially damaging thermoacoustic oscillations in gas turbine combustion systems by computational means. A framework is laid out to predict numerically the frequency and stability of ... -
Nonlinear thermoacoustic oscillations of a ducted laminar premixed flame
(2013-10-12)Finding limit cycles and their stability is one of the central problems of nonlinear thermoacoustics. However, a limit cycle is not the only type of self-excited oscillation in a nonlinear system. Nonlinear systems can ... -
Lightweight Composite Trailer Design
(2017-04-01)This thesis explores the use of lightweight composite materials in road freight trailer design as a means of reducing the emissions of the road freight industry. A comprehensive review of previous lightweight composite ...
