Calculating pair-correlations from random particle configurations

A method to calculate typical pair correlations (or structure factor) for disordered particulates, such as Percus-Yevick, even when using a small finite sample. We also show how to calculate specific particle configurations from given pair correlation.

Optimal Cable Positioning

A subsea control umbilical is a collection of electrical, fibre optic cables, and fluid conduits bound together. In offshore oil and gas field developments, umbilicals are critical so they need to be robust and flexible. There is not limit to the …

Elimination of errors from track line detection, In: Train Positioning Using Video Odometry

Reliable Data Systems have developed a video-based odometry system that enables trains to measure velocities and distances travelled without the need for trackside infrastructure. The Study Group was asked to investigate ways of improving the …

Detecting Geometric Faults from Measured Data

Manufactured artefacts such as major aircraft components (wings, fuselage, tailplane) are defined at the concept and design stages using a variety of methods, namely Computer Aided Design (CAD), NACA aerofoil definitions or purely analytical …

Nonlinear Elastodynamics with Radial Symmetry (Elasticidade nao linear com simetria radial)

This MSc thesis is an exploration into the qualitative and quantitative behaviour of wave propagation with radial symmetry in materials which are prestressed elastic, isotropic and homogeneous. This type of model approximates an explosion in a solid, …
