(Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia; 2012)The use of energy in buildings is an ongoing concern, not only in NZ but worldwide. This concern has led to significant growth in the use of solar energy to provide heating and electricity generation. This paper presents ... -
(AUT University; 2012)Within any discipline, teaching involves a distinctive relationship between content, pedagogical approaches and the use of technologies. In engineering education, the content includes mathematical symbolic and diagrammatic ... -
(Department of Control and Engineering Design, Technical University of Denmark; 2000)The current product quality paradigm is founded upon a customer-focused product development process, in which the functionality and behaviour of a product are designed to fulfil the needs of customers, and technological ... -
(Technical University of Zielona Góra, AUT University; 2000)Today, it is almost impossible to find a manufacturer who has not been significantly influenced by the quality culture, but it is evident that some are doing more to improve their product quality than others are. The ... -
(Department of Control and Engineering Design, Technical University of Denmark; 2000)In the mid-1980s, Andreasen and Hein first described their model of Integrated Product Development. Many Danish companies quickly embraced the principles of integrated product development and adapted the model to their ... -
(Brunel University, AUT University; 2001)This paper considers the feasibility of using the function/means tree to create a single tree for a complete motor vehicle. It is argued that function/means trees can be used for modelling technical and semantic functions, ... -
(Delft University Press; 2000)This paper will describe the multi-board con-cept, which is a working approach for supporting life cycle oriented design and product quality. Aspects of this concept include construction of a common working environment ... -
(WDK; 1999)Building in high quality continues to be the driving force of new product development activity in industry. Yet as we come to the end of the 1990s and look forward to the challenges in Design Research of the new millennium, ... -
(WDK; 1999)This paper will consider how Quality Function Deployment (QFD) and Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) processes can be used to improve the design quality of products at the concept stage. We appreciate that both ... -
(Aston Business School; 2012)The recent improvements of Virtual Reality (VR) technologies makes it feasible for automotive design reviews to be carried out in a virtual world. Design review with virtual prototypes could reduce costs by eliminating the ... -
(University of Essex, AUT University; 2006)The Innovative Product Development Centre (IPDC) was established at the University of Wolverhampton in the West Midlands region of the UK with a mission “to help small and medium sized companies improve their business, ... -
(University of Liverpool Management School (ULMS), AUT University; 2012)In response to the need to develop more sophisticated, higher quality products product developers are more and more expecting engineering simulations to provide them with the data, information, and knowledge required to ... -
(Virtual Engineering Centre, the University of Liverpool; 2012)Hi-fidelity models require lengthy preparation Superfluous model data impedes the real-time experience Interaction requires intuitive and unobtrusive controls Immersion requires high refresh rates and accurate tracking ... -
(The University of Liverpool; 2011)Designing is more than just creating a product...it is also about creating an emotional experience! This presentation provides an overview of the Virtual Engineering Centre and its work with Optis UK and Bentley Motors to ... -
(TWI, AUT University; 2012)Friction stir lap diffusion welding (FSLDW) of Al-to-steel experiments were conducted followed by mechanical testing and metallurgical examination of the welds to study the formation of microstructure at the interface ... -
(Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Canterbury, AUT University; 2003)No abstract -
(Cryogenic Society of America, AUT University; 2012)Industrial Research Ltd has developed a unique diaphragm-based pressure wave generator technology for employment in pulse tube and Stirling cryocoolers. The system uses a pair of metal diaphragms to separate the clean ... -
(Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, the University of Canterbury, AUT University; 2002)No abstract -
(Georgia Institute of Technology, ICC Press, AUT University; 2010)Through its involvement in the analysis, design and development of both Stirling engines and refrigerating applications, the Stirling Cycle Research Group at the University of Canterbury has, over several years, encountered ... -
(Springer-Verlag, AUT University; 2004)The Eckert number phenomenon was investigated theoretically by Geropp in 1969 and describes a reversal in heat transfer from a moving wall at an Eckert number Ec ≈ 1. In this report the Eckert number phenomenon is confirmed ...
