Abstract:
In Industry Year, this James Clayton Lecture appropriately addresses the field of manufacturing engineering and aims to contribute to a wider understanding of how our economy and standard of living critically depend on those who design, manufacture and sell the products of high quality necessary to compete in world markets. The two main thrusts worldwide, in manufacturing engineering are: Automation—in particular, computer integrated, flexible manufacture to reduce overall cost and lead time and in which CADCAM, FMS and CIM are crucially important technologies Manufacture with higher precision—on which a wide range of advanced technology products are totally dependent—and in which precision engineering, micro-engineering and nanotechnology are generally less well understood and practised than by our main international competitors The paper traces recent developments in precision engineering in general and several new and non-conventional high precision ‘machining’ processes in particular, including those by which ‘atomic-bit machining’ is possible. Principles and modern techniques for controlling the accuracy of tool to workpiece in two- and three-dimensional work-zones of high precision production machines are reviewed and illustrated. Today's precision engineering, which can be defined as work at the forefront of design and manufacturing technology, can also be expected to become the general engineering of tomorrow. Its importance to the future of the UK economy cannot be overstated.

Abstract:
This paper argues that the characteristic lack of engineering representation in British senior management is partly a consequence of the prevailing conception of what management is actually about. As compared to certain other capitalist economies, British conditions have favoured such management activities as the search for longterm finance and strategic marketing over product and process improvement. This system of priorities, massively perpetuated in management writings and education, is now embedded in the British definition of what management is. Aspirants to senior positions, which necessarily involve considerable decision-making discretion, need to demonstrate their `trustworthiness' in such terms. Insofar as the managerial credentials of professional engineering rest upon its position of authority within productive labour, they are out of key with the conception of management dominant in Britain. For many years the profession has tried to overcome this by adding `managerial' subjects to engineering education. However, so long as management is conceived of as a distinct field of study in its own right, such a strategy can do no more than place engineers in the position of comparative amateurs competing with full-time `specialists'.

Abstract:
Corporate branding research has developed fairly rapidly over the past fifteen years. Insights from a diversity of contexts have contributed significantly to the development of the concept. However, extant studies still, by large, remain under the purview of marketing and insights from non-marketing perspectives are very limited. Furthermore, the viewpoint of employees in engineering-intensive contexts is widely understudied. Hence, this thesis aims to shed further empirical light on the meanings and implications of corporate branding from the perspective of engineers in the context of three British engineering consulting companies. An interpretive, qualitative and inductive approach through case study research design is adopted as the methodology of this thesis. Findings revealed the meanings and implications of corporate branding as well as the reasons for engineers’ disengagement with the corporate brand initiatives. Emergent themes and findings are presented through six organizing themes: the inter-dynamism and mutual implications of personal brands and the corporate brand, the tensions between the two organizing structures of professional partnership and corporation, the conduct of corporate branding and corporate brand communication, the implications of economic downturns for the corporate brand, the engineering-marketing dichotomy and its implications for the corporate brand and, last, the association between organizational culture, organizational identity and the corporate brand.

Abstract:
Relic periglacial solifluction features cover most of Britain, particularly the Midlands and the South, causing serious and continuing earthwork and construction problems. Although the engineering significance of the presence of periglacial solifluction deposits is widely appreciated, the mechanics of emplacement of these deposits has received surprisingly little attention. The principal objective of the research has been to investigate the freeze-thaw behaviour of some clay soils in Britain which have been exposed to periglacial conditions. The behaviour was examined using a Permafrost Oedometer or Permode, based on the apparatus used by Morgenstern and Smith, (1973). Tests have been carried out on Lias Clay, Weald Clay and Oxford Clay. In each test, a specimen was placed under an applied stress and subjected to 24 hour cycles of freezing and thawing. Freezing was mainly imposed from the top of the specimen downwards. The tests were carried out undrained. The pore water pressures were found to increase as a result of cyclic freeze-thaw conditions. Greater pore water pressures were generally recorded at the top than at the base of the specimen. This was considered to be due to moisture migration towards the freezing front during freezing, and impeded filtration, (due to underlying frozen material), during thaw. The significance of the additional pore water pressures in terms of slope stability was considered. A semi-infinite slope analysis model was used primarily, but reference was made to other, similar research. The analysis found that the predicted slope angle of failure is reduced significantly by relatively low increases in pore water pressure. Greater increases in pore water pressure are gained for soils of lower residual shear strength/higher plasticity. It was determined that the generation of excess pore water pressure and corresponding decrease in residual strength have considerable implications for the stability of slopes previously exposed to periglacial conditions.

Abstract:
A framework, which encompasses the key factors influencing the first-tier-manager's (FTM's) human resource management (HRM) performance, is critical in terms of achieving strategic fit at the FTM's level.More recently, studies have shown that using an integrated framework as a management tool can yield enormous organisational benefits, for example, in terms of operations (Shamar et al, 2007), and optimising learning (Serpell and Ferrada, 2007, Robotham, 2004, May ). Previous studies, such as May (1999) - developing competencies in fast changing environments have also presented similar findings. The crucial HRM role of FTMs being the subject of renewed attention in the last few years, marked by burgeoning studies on HRM devolution and the growing concerns associated with the FTM's performance in this regard, gives credence to the above conclusion. From a historical perspective, the HRM role of FTMs has been through three core phases, and is currently in the FORTH phase, which shows no signs of abating. Evidentially, the past decade has seen employers establishing more devolved management structures that place more emphasis on local level managerial decision-making. An important component of this shift in many has been the re-configuration of the role of FTMs to encompass a wider range of HRM responsibilities because of the crucial influence that FTMs can exert over worker attitudes and motivation (Purcell et al, 2003). At the same time, the available evidence also indicates that, in practice, whilst the FTM's performance of this role has been successful on the one had, in contrast it has often proved to be problematic. Four typical factors have been identifîed as contributing to the success of the FTM's HRM role. Against this background, this research has used detailed case study evidence to explore how far the success or otherwise, of such a process of change is explicable in terms of the role played by the FOUR inevitably interrelated, sets of factors: the perceptions and attitudes of FTMs; the extent to which their new role is defined; the degree to which Us introduction is linked to the provision of appropriate training and development opportunities; and the extent to which ail this is integrated into the broader way in which the organisation is structured and operates. The findings obtained from AeroCo, served to highlight the relevance of all of these factors and, in doing so, pointed to the fact that to be successful in attempts to reform the role of FTMs, need to take due cognisance of all of them, that is as a diagnostic tool to develop a strategic framework for managing FTMs. In short, the study's findings highlight the fact that those that wish to enhance the HRM role of FTMs need to adopt a strategic approach towards achieving this objective. They further indicate that such an approach needs to encompass both 'vertical' and 'horizontal' dimensions. Thus, regarding the former, the strategic approach has to extend to ensuring that the new role not only 'fits' with operational business needs, but also wider management decision-making structures. Meanwhile, in relation to the latter, the strategic approach needs to encompass a close integration between all aspects of relevant human resource activities. Consequently, the findings point to the fact that human resource functions wishing to devolve aspects of their activities to FTMs need to think through carefully how this can be done in a way, which is compatible with the wider cultural, structural, and operational features of the organisational environment. In other words to ensure that any such change is pursued in an integrated rather than 'isolated', narrowly functional-based, manner.

Full text
Abstract:
This work is an attempt to explore early British steamship innovation during the 19th century from the point of view of innovation studies. The proposed analytical framework draws on neo-Schumpeterian and evolutionary economics for understanding the patterns and factors behind the phenomenon of technical change in the capital good under analysis. The thesis aims at filling a gap in the maritime economic and technological history literature, namely the issues connected to the process through which modern (mechanically-propelled, iron-hulled, screw-driven) ocean transportation emerged. Two inter-related research questions are addressed: how and why did steamships evolve in the course of the 19th century? In other words, the present research focuses on describing the dynamics of technological evolution and on identifying the key drivers of those developments. While the thesis includes a review of the relevant literature (Part I), the main work consists of original empirical research (Parts II and III). The bulk of this work primarily rests on the compilation of two new main bodies of quantitative and qualitative evidence. First, a previously unpublished dataset on the population and characteristics of steamers is used to measure the rate and direction of technical change in steamers. Second, previously unpublished archival material is used to reconstruct the innovation processes of marine engineers and naval architects and the civil society arrangements around them. The results suggest a number of stylised facts and institutional variables that have been subject to little discussion in the extant literature. On one hand, time-series and other statistical analyses suggest a technological “take-off” of steamship performance by the mid-19th century. This turning point, which was the outcome of a complex but rapid process of structural reconfiguration (the transition from wood-paddle to iron-screw as the new “dominant design”), occurred between the late 1830s and the late 1840s particularly among cargo traders and unsubsidised packets. On the other hand, documentary evidence shows that such technological breakthroughs were preceded and supported by a specific set of institutional innovations. These included the emergence of voluntary engineering associations, technical mass media and a not-for-profit ship classification society within the British national system of innovation. The thesis argues that the process of revolutionary technological innovation leading to the economically efficient long-haul merchant steamer cannot be separated from the rise of a vibrant interactive environment promoting learning, knowledge integration and technological accumulation, which may be called a “technological public sphere”.

Manak, Harminder S. "Hydroxyl functionalities of middle rank british coals." Thesis, Aston University, 1996. http://publications.aston.ac.uk/9672/.

Full text
Abstract:
Most of the new processes involving the utilisation of coal are based on hydroliquefaction, and in order to assess the suitability of the various coals for this purpose and to characterise coals in general, it is desirable to have a detailed and accurate knowledge of their chemical constitution and reactivity. Also, in the consumption of coals as chemical feed stocks, as in hydroliquefaction, it is advantageous to classify the coals in terms of chemical parameters as opposed to, or in addition to, carbonisation parameters. In view of this it is important to realise the functional groups on the coal hydrocarbon skeleton. In this research it was attempted to characterise coals of various rank (and subsequently their macerals) via methods involving both microwave-driven and bench top derivatisation of the hydroxyl functionalities present in coal. These hydroxyl groups are predominantly in the form of hindered phenolic groups, with other alcoholic groupings being less important, in the coals studied here. Four different techniques were employed, three of which - stannylation, silylation and methylation - were based on in situ analysis. The fourth technique - acetylation - involved derivatisation followed by analysis of a leaving group. The four different techniques were critically compared and it is concluded that silylation is the most promising technique for the evaluation of the hydroxyl content of middle rank coals and coal macerals. Derivatisation via stannylation using TBTO was impeded due to the large steric demand of the reagent and acetylation did not successfully derivatise the more hindered phenolic groups. Three novel methylation techniques were investigated and two of these show great potential. The information obtained from the techniques was correlated together to give a comprehensive insight into the coals and coal macerals studied.

Abstract:
Konstgräs används i stor utsträckning och dess miljöpåverkan är omdebatterad. Oro finns över spridning av mikroplaster och dess miljöpåverkan. Flera studier på spridning av större mikroplast finns, medan spridning av luftburna partiklar är mindre väl utforskat. Studier på detta är till sin natur svåra då tester i fält försvåras av förekomsten av mätbrus i form av partiklar från trafik etc. Detta arbete syftar till att i kontrollerad miljö, genom att använda en Brittisk pendelrigg, undersöka bildandet av luftburna partiklar vid yttre påverkan på konstgräs. Skillnaden mellan olika konstgrässystem studeras, i detta fall olika typer av granulat, s.k. infill. Tester körs med de tre vanligaste granulattyperna, SBR, TPE samt EPDM. I dessa tester kan skillnad påvisas mellan EPDM gentemot de andra två typerna, där EPDM ger upphov till fler luftburna partiklar.
Artificial turf is today widely used, and its environmental impact is much-debated. There are some concerns regarding the spread of microplastics and their environmental impact. Some studies regarding the spread of larger particles exist, while the impact in the form of airborne particles is less well explored. Studies on airborne particulates are quite complicated, as measuring these is made complicated by the already existing particles from traffic and such. In this study a British pendulum is utilized to, in a controlled environment, try to ascertain if a difference may exist between different types of turf. In this study the three most commonly used types of rubber granules, infill, are tested. These are SBR, TPE and EPDM. These tests show a difference in release of airborne particle between EPDM and the other two types, where EPDM generate more airborne particles.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis analyses the impact on productivity, employment, overtime, earnings and costs of shorter working hours with particular reference to the 1989/91 campaign by the Confederation of Shipbuilding and Engineering Unions (CSEU). The events leading up to the CSEU campaign and the reasons for its success are investigated. One result of this union success was the end of national bargaining. The changing role of national bargaining, including why it became a casualty of reduced hours, is also examined. Research on earlier reductions in hours has tended to suggest that productivity rises as a result of reduced hours. A review of this research concludes that the productivity effect of reduced hours has been overstated. It also raises some important methodological issues. The thesis presents research on 20 engineering plants where the 37-hour week was introduced as a result of the CSEU campaign. A variety of managers and union representatives were interviewed. In addition there was a survey of engineering plants. This included plants with unchanged hours. Finally, the effect of unions on working hours in the whole economy is explored using a large data set. The research finds that when engineering hours were reduced hourly earnings typically rose so that weekly pay was unaffected, at least in the short-term. While measures to increase productivity were a feature of collective agreements on reduced hours, there is little evidence that productivity has been permanently increased by reduced hours. The productivity-increasing measures would in general have been agreed without reduced hours, albeit somewhat later in many cases. There is even less evidence that reduced hours have affected output and overtime than there is of a productivity effect. So, increased employment is left as the major consequence of reduced hours. The recession, which was at its most serious when reduced hours were implemented, had a much larger effect on employment. This makes the employment effect of reduced hours hard to observe as it mainly took the form of job retention. Increased costs may well mean that the employment effect of reduced hours is a little less than it would otherwise have been.

Abstract:
This paper describes two gas turbine related research projects in the department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia. Of the two projects described, one involves fundamental turbomachinery research while the second is a more applied project concerned with gas turbine based cogeneration systems in process industries. In the fundamental research area, both an experimental and computational study of unsteady boundary layer development on turbomachinery blading is described. The applied research program involves an engineering and economic assessment of a gas turbine based cogeneration system for sawmills. The system is designed to use wood-waste generated during the saw-milling process as a source of heat for an indirectly fired gas turbine. Studies to date indicate that such a system could result in many sawmills becoming completely energy self-sufficient.

Abstract:
The quality of engineering education is challenging and is of paramount importance in today’s globalised world. The Faculty of Engineering at the University of the West Indies (UWI), St. Augustine Campus, inherited a western education system and the accreditation systems in the five departments within the Faculty are based on the British accreditation system. The aim of this paper is to describe how this accreditation system is utilised in the Faculty of Engineering to ensure that the quality of the delivery of its programmes is at a high standard. The paper was derived from a survey carried out by the author. It describes the quality systems available in the Faculty and fully describes the steps involved in the accreditation process. The paper reveals the recent attempt at introducing the Caribbean Accreditation Council for Engineering and Technology (CACET) but concludes that until it is fully established and internationally recognised through its membership in the Washington Accord or any other comparably recognized international body, there will still be room for the international accreditation by the British institutions or other comparative international institutions at the Faculty of Engineering at UWI.

Abstract:
Abstract British Columbia (BC) has a significant oil & gas industry, with approximately 25,000 wells drilled in the province since the early 1900s. In the past few decades, the industry has changed from a balanced oil & gas production to activities dominated by unconventional gas production which is recovered by hydraulic fracturing. Concurrently, since 2000 there has been a shift from isolated vertical wells to pad-drilled horizontal wells. The older well stock at end-of-life combines with horizontal production wells and fractured reservoirs, the consequence of which is a growing wave of abandonment in BC, building over the next decade. This paper reviews the existing data on BC wells, as it is relevant to well abandonment operations. This includes the well architectures, trajectories, depths, testing procedures, etc.
