- This work was awarded a Best Paper Prize at the international Digital Enterprise (DET) Conference 2016. It addresses the need for better retention and exploitation of tacit knowledge for intelligent design tools. It develops and exploits novel automated design capability for a composite forming tool which is integrated with an immersive virtual reality environment. This results in better quality processes and shorter development lead times. The outcomes from this work were central to the development of an EPSCR proposal in 2017 (value £425k) aimed at extending the method to lifecycle engineering and was supported by Rolls Royce, Bombardier and Translink.
