Welcome to Edinburgh Napier Research Repository

The ‘Research Repository’ is the open access institutional repository of Edinburgh Napier University. It contains examples of research outputs produced by staff and research students, as well as related information about the university's funded projects and staff research interests.

Whenever possible, refereed documents accepted for publication, or finished artistic compositions presented in public, will be made available here in full digital format, and hyperlinks to standard published versions will be provided. Any questions about submissions to the repository or problems with access to any of its content should be sent to the Repository Team at repository@napier.ac.uk

Safer and Efficient Assemblies: Harnessing Real Time Worker Movements with Digital Twins (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kasarapu, S. S. K., Vasantha, G., Marzano, A., Corney, J., Hanson, J., Quigley, J., El-Raoui, H., Thompson, N., & Sherlock, A. (2024, August). Safer and Efficient Assemblies: Harnessing Real Time Worker Movements with Digital Twins. Presented at 21st Inte

This paper addresses a critical gap in digital twin simulation within manufacturing environments by focusing on the dynamic representation of worker movements during assembly processes. We introduce an innovative approach that utilizes Ultra-Wideband... Read More about Safer and Efficient Assemblies: Harnessing Real Time Worker Movements with Digital Twins.
