STATEMENT OF RESEARCH INTEREST Postdoctoral Research: Title: Investigation of Potential Techniques for Damage Monitoring in Historic Tapestries Research Abstract: Tapestries and other large wall hangings are of major historic and cultural significance and form an integral part of the interior of many historic houses. They are large and heavy and while they are on continuous display damage may be caused, not only because of their vulnerability to the environment but also through the stress imposed by their own weight. Textile conservators understand the chemistry of fibres and dyes and the way they interact with the environment. They routinely monitor and control the environment to enhance the long-term preservation of tapestries and other artefacts. Although they are experienced in visually assessing textiles for evidence of their inherent response to the stress caused by hanging, they have never been able to quantify this damage. The development of effective monitoring techniques will enable areas of degradation to be identified before it is visually apparent that damage is occurring. The development of such techniques will mean that the optimum time for conservation treatment can be predicted and different methods of treatment can be evaluated. Philosophy of Doctorate (PhD) Research: Title: Damage Identification in Beam-like Structures by Vibration-based Analysis and Artificial Neural Networks Research Abstract: Laminated composites and sandwich structures are being increasingly used in different engineering applications, especially in aeronautical, marine and offshore structures where high stiffness, lightweight, good corrosion resistance and temperature stability are the primary issues. During their service life, these structures experience extreme loading and harsh environmental condition leading structural damage that significantly reduces the mechanical strength and causes an overall performance degradation in the structure. Therefore, localisation and quantification of the damage in real time so as to maintain the performance of the structure is one of the promising research areas in engineering applications. Since the determination of the severity and the location of the damage is an inverse, non-linear and non-unique problem, an intelligent algorithm is needed to perform the damage detection analysis. This research aims to develop a damage detection algorithm, which uses vibration-based analysis data obtained from beam-like structure to locate and quantify the damage by using artificial neural networks. The inputs and the corresponding outputs required to train the neural network are obtained from the finite element analyses for different vibration modes of the beams. The designed multi-layer feed-forward back-propagation neural networks are trained by using different damage scenarios. After validation of the neural networks, new damage cases are introduced and neural networks are tested for the location and severity predictions. The results from the neural network depict that severity and location of the damage can be predicted by using as input the global (natural frequencies) and the local (strain or curvature mode shapes) dynamic behaviour of the structure. Master of Science (MSc) Research: Title: Wing Structural Characteristics of a Medium-Range Transport Aircraft Research Abstract: The analysis of aircraft structures is one of the most important and challenging issues that an aeronautical engineer faces. The methods of structural analysis are two types, namely analytical and numerical methods. Analytical methods provide closed-form solutions only at certain relatively simple cases and practically cannot be used in the analysis of complex structures. The finite element method, which is a numerical procedure, is most widely used to solve various structural mechanics problems as a powerful and accurate analysis tool. In this thesis, wing structural characteristics of a medium-range transport aircraft are investigated by using a finite element package called I-DEAS (Integrated Design Engineering and Analysis Software). The three dimensional solid model of the wing is constructed and thereafter by using one and two-dimensional finite elements, a mixed mesh is generated on the model. After the application of the boundary conditions, the dynamic and static analyses are performed and the solutions for the wing are obtained for with and without fuel cases. The results are presented in terms of the natural frequencies and mode shapes for the dynamic analysis and the displacements and stresses for the static analysis. These results are further analysed in order to find the effect of the fuel and to investigate the behaviour of the wing. 3/13
