Abstract:

Thepresentation by Prof. D. Axinte will give a short overview of researchdirections, examples of notable achievements and on-going research projectscarried in advanced manufacturing technologies at University of Nottinghamwhile flagging-up possibilities for educational and research collaborations. Aseries of case studies, from concepts, simulations, testing and industrialimplementations, of research projects will be presented to demonstrate ourcapability to tackle both academic and industry challenges while enhancing thegroup expertise through national and international collaborations.

Thefollowing research topics will be presented:

- Machiningof difficult-to-cut Ni/Ti based superalloys for aerospace applications.

- Processmonitoring for machining high integrity components.

- Innovativetooling design from super-abrasive materials.

- Abrasivewaterjetting technology and its niche applications.

- Pulsedlaser ablation for freeform machining and its challenges.

- Innovativedesign tooling and fixturing systems.

- Machinetools and robotic systems for in-situ processing of large structures.
