Improved non-contact 3D field and processing techniques to achieve macrotexture characterisation of pavements (2019)
Journal Article
Edmondson, V., Woodward, J., Lim, M., Kane, M., Martin, J., & Shyha, I. (2019). Improved non-contact 3D field and processing techniques to achieve macrotexture characterisation of pavements. Construction and Building Materials, 227, Article 116693. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2019.116693

Macrotexture is required on pavements to provide skid resistance for vehicle safety in wet conditions. Increasingly, correlations between macrotexture measurements captured using non-contact techniques and tyre-pavement contact friction are being inv...

Experimental Investigation on Micro Milling of Polyester/Halloysite Nano-Clay Nanocomposites (2019)
Journal Article
Fu, G., Huo, D., Shyha, I., Pancholi, K., & Saharudin, M. S. (2019). Experimental Investigation on Micro Milling of Polyester/Halloysite Nano-Clay Nanocomposites. Nanomaterials, 9(7), Article 917. https://doi.org/10.3390/nano9070917

Efficient machining of the polyester nanocomposite components requires a better understanding of machinability characteristics of such material, which has become an urgent requirement for modern industrial production. In this research, the micro-mill... Read More about Experimental Investigation on Micro Milling of Polyester/Halloysite Nano-Clay Nanocomposites.

Effects of minimal quantity lubricants reinforced with nano-particles on the performance of carbide drills for drilling nickel-titanium alloys (2019)
Journal Article
Rosnan, R., Murad, M. N., Azmi, A. I., & Shyha, I. (2019). Effects of minimal quantity lubricants reinforced with nano-particles on the performance of carbide drills for drilling nickel-titanium alloys. Tribology International, 136, 58-66. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.triboint.2019.03.029

Drilling of NiTi alloys under two lubricant-coolant strategies; namely flood and minimal quantity nanolubricant; two types of carbides drills, and three cutting speeds was investigated. Progressive tool wear, tool-life, drilling thrust force, surface...
