Development and demonstration of intelligent non-contact inspection technology for concentrated solar power plants (INTERSOLAR)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2015,
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is the renewable energy source with the highest potential for growth. From a strict techno-economic aspect, the two CSP technologies which are currently commercially viable are those based on parabolic trough and Linear Fresnel Reflector designs. Parabolic trough concentrators are the most widely deployed type of solar thermal power plant. Most of the existing parabo ...

Development of a high sensitivity ultrasonic phased array Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method for the early detection of creep damage (Type IV cracking) in alloy steels used in high temperature, high (CreepTest)
Date du début: 1 mai 2013, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2015,
Creep is the time-dependent, thermally assisted deformation of a component operating under stress. Metal pressure components such as boiler tubing, headers, and steam piping in fossil-fired power plants operate at thermal conditions (above ~1,000ºF [538ºC]) conducive to causing creep damage over the operating life of the component.To ensure safe and reliable operation of such components in service ...

Whole Life Rail Axle Assessment and Improvement (Wolaxim)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,
Axles for railway trains are carefully engineered and high value items that are designed to last 20 years or more. There is however a current trend for axles to be withdrawn from service before this because of corrosion on the surface long before their design lives. The decision to withdraw from service is taken without the full knowledge of the way in which the failure will result from corrosion, ...

The Foundation of Organization Design (ORGDESIGN)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,
"Organization design refers to choices about the formal structure of organizations. While the study of organization design is not new, it is not current either. This proposal describes a series of theory development projects I aim to undertake over the next three years towards strengthening the foundations of organization design as an area of academic enquiry. The projects focus on a) interactions ...
