Modelling the fracture of advanced carbon and related materials (2012)
Thesis
Kipling, G. D. (2012). Modelling the fracture of advanced carbon and related materials. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4214034

This thesis outlines the development of a novel computational model which is used to simulate the mechanical response of nuclear graphites on a microstructural scale. Application of finite element analysis (FEA) to the simulated microstructure models... Read More about Modelling the fracture of advanced carbon and related materials.

Environmental risk management system design for hazardous waste materials (2012)
Thesis
Zhao, R. (2012). Environmental risk management system design for hazardous waste materials. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4213422

Hazardous materials can be generally deemed as any material which, because of its quantity, concentration, or physical, chemical, or infectious characteristics, may cause, or pose a substantial or potential hazard to human health or the environment....

Issues of scale in nuclear graphite components (2008)
Thesis
Holt, M. (2008). Issues of scale in nuclear graphite components. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208861

A conceptual model for the determination of the effect of specimen size on the strength of nuclear graphites was developed using abstraction techniques and finite element Analysis (FEA). The model was designed to be able to predict the response of nu... Read More about Issues of scale in nuclear graphite components.

Optimisation of manufacturing systems for plastic moulded products in the automotive industry (2008)
Thesis
Tomar, P. (2008). Optimisation of manufacturing systems for plastic moulded products in the automotive industry. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4208897

This thesis presents a study of process planning instabilities and inefficiencies within a plastic component manufacturing company. The company was increasingly pressurised by high customer expectations and competition from the global market. A serie...
