Projects

AFRC - CRAD - 1716 Doing More with Less – Cogging Automation: Krishnamurthy, Bhaskaran (Researcher) Huang, Jianglin (Project Lead) Barbera, Daniele (Researcher) Andreu, Aurik (Researcher) Parolin, Paolo (Researcher) Falsafi, Javad (Researcher) Chalkley, Eleanor (Researcher); This project aims to create an integrated platform for the fully automated design, simulation, and digitalization of the cogging process, using advanced tools such as easy2forge, FORGE, and qobeo. The platform will provide engineers with easy access to cogging process design and optimisation. By automating and digitizing the cogging process design, the platform will facilitate better data collection, storage and management, providing fundamental support to the digital transformation of cogging operations.; 20-Jan-2024 - 31-Jan-2025
AFRC-CRAD-06177 - WP3.4: Material Characterisation of Spigot Features Formed by Sheet Splitting Trials: Krishnamurthy, Bhaskaran (Researcher) Watt, Kyle (Principal Investigator) Hicks, May (Co-investigator) Da Silva, Laurie (Project Lead); This project will develop advanced manufacturing capability and novel engine assembly technologies to machine, form, cast and assemble novel high temperature materials. The project will generate new manufacturing capabilities to enable new designs, reduce engine set value, minimise through-life cost and improve the manufacturing sustainability for application in the Aerospace Engine fleet and future engines including UltraFan(r), with read-across opportunities to other sectors.; 03-Jan-2023
AFRC-DIRF-05989 Rimstock wheel manufacturing improvement program: Krishnamurthy, Bhaskaran (Researcher) Paslioglu, Kadir (Principal Investigator) Souza, Paul (Researcher) Sivaswamy, Giribaskar (Researcher) Waugh, Stephen (Technician) Fleming, Christopher (Researcher); Rimstock Ltd required AFRC to support a program of work focussed on improving their current manufacturing process for alloy wheels. Ultimately this will optimise the production route to enable Rimstock to support larger wheel development and production programs in future. The primary manufacturing route considered for this project includes rotary forging of a preform which is then flow formed and machined to the final geometry. AFRC engineers visited Rimstock’s facility to walk-the-line and understand key challenges and potential areas for improvement at each production stage. Key priority areas were identified and were addressed in different constituent work packages of the project. This project was proposed as a first phase of a larger program of development which will include process optimisation, automation, and digitisation.; 03-Jan-2022 - 13-Jan-2023
NMIS-CATX-06098 - Researcher in Residence 22-23: Krishnamurthy, Bhaskaran (Principal Investigator) Coules, Harry (Research Co-investigator); Working with Dr. Harry Coules from University of Bristol on Fracture prediciton in Flow Forming. As part of the project, experimental trials and mechanical testing are planned and this will be used to inform a fracture prediction model/tool developed by Dr. Coules and this will be complimentary to the work carried out in-house on fracture prediciton in Incremental Bulk Forming Processes and as such will expand AFRC's in-house capabilities.; 16-Jan-2022 - 16-Jan-2022
AFRC-DIRF1946 - On Clamping Load Estimation for an SME - Chapman's Ltd: Krishnamurthy, Bhaskaran (Principal Investigator); Chapmans have approached the AFRC for support in understanding the requirements of prospective hydraulic clamp for their wide ram forging press set up. Chapmans is trying to phase out their current horizontal press and intend to use their more up-to-date wide ram press along with a hydraulic clamping set up which is yet to be procured.
The load specification of the prospective clamping system is to be identified in order to develop an understanding of the load in the existing manufacturing process.
In response to Chapmans need, the AFRC propose to conduct a study – based on FE analysis – to evaluate the clamping load.; 14-Jan-2022 - 27-Jan-2022
Graduate Trainee programme – II: McKinlay, Stewart (Principal Investigator) Reshetov, Aleksey (Fellow) Bylya, Olga (Fellow) Krishnamurthy, Bhaskaran (Fellow); This is the project delivered by Manufacturing Skills Academy NMIS/AFRC.
Goal: supervise and provide relevant training and support to graduate trainees in NMIS and AFRC.; 03-Jan-2022 - 31-Jan-2022
