Despite accounting for a tiny percentage of total construction expenses, a wasteful design process is more likely to cause delays or errors, resulting in low productivity, budget overrun, undesirable outputs and wasting resources. This study aims to examine the design process through Lean...

A Lean Approach to System Design and the Development of a Multi-Stage Dredging System for Commercial Applications
DownloadSpring 2023
The development of any technology requires that a balance must be struck between meeting requirements and dealing with constraints. This thesis presents a lean approach to the initial design and development of a complex, multi-physics system for industrial implementation, undertaken due to...

Berry, T. R., Blanchard, C., Selfridge, G., Spence, J. C., Edwards, J., Cutumisu, N.
Abstract: Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between body mass index and neighborhood walkability, socioeconomic status (SES), reasons for choosing neighborhoods, physical activity, fruit and vegetable intake, and demographic variables. Methods: Two studies,...

A numerical model and software interface for the design and modelling of Stirling engines was presented. This model was developed to suit low-temperature Stirling engines, those that run at source temperature of less than 150 °C and run at speeds where temporarily developed losses become...

A project methodology is proposed that is suitable for small teams working on the design of mechatronic systems. It is an alternative to a waterfall development method, which presents challenges when project uncertainty and risk are high. The method focuses on agility, iteration, feedback and...

The multisolute osmotic virial equation is the only multisolute thermodynamic solution theory that has been derived from first principles and can make predictions of multisolute solution behaviour in the absence of multisolute solution data. Other solution theories either (i) include simplifying...
