Optimal transitional surface for a new continuous press forming process. This project addresses the National Research Priority - Frontier Technologies for Building and Transforming Australian Industries through smart information use. This project aims to gain fundamental scientific understanding of a manufacturing process with the aim of developing a tool that will enhance existing manufacturing processes and controls from an 'art of expertise' to a scientific understanding and improvement.

This project addresses the National Research Priority - Frontier Technologies for Building and Transforming Australian Industries through smart information use. This project aims to gain fundamental scientific understanding of a manufacturing process with the aim of developing a tool that will enhance existing manufacturing processes and controls from an 'art of expertise' to a scientific understanding and improvement. This manufacturing area represents a niche market for Australian manufacturing and the development of a product that enhances productivity and reduces costs has the potential to elevate Australian manufacturers in the export market and create economic benefit for Australia.Read moreRead less
Optimisation of Mass Flow Bin Design Using 3D Parametric Modelling. The storage, feeding and transfer of bulk solids are of vital importance to the resource and process industries. The current techniques used for the design of storage vessels are reliable but time consuming and limit the degree of optimisation that can be achieved. This project will develop a design methodology for bulk solids storage vessels such that it can be integrated with the parametric design system developed by Gulf Con ....Optimisation of Mass Flow Bin Design Using 3D Parametric Modelling. The storage, feeding and transfer of bulk solids are of vital importance to the resource and process industries. The current techniques used for the design of storage vessels are reliable but time consuming and limit the degree of optimisation that can be achieved. This project will develop a design methodology for bulk solids storage vessels such that it can be integrated with the parametric design system developed by Gulf Conveyor Holdings to provide a reliable, accelerated design process that provides a high degree of optimisation. This will lead to greater use of the technique in industry and a consequent increase in reliability and cost effectiveness.Read moreRead less
