Intelligent DMU creation: Nominal CAD model preparation for automated tolerance allocation (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Friel, I., Butterfield, J., & Marzano, A. (2016, August). Intelligent DMU creation: Nominal CAD model preparation for automated tolerance allocation. Paper presented at 33rd International Manufacturing Conference (IMC33), University of Limerick, Ireland

This paper examines the integration of a tolerance design process within the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) environment having identified the potential to create an intelligent Digital Mock-Up [1]. The tolerancing process is complex in nature and as suc... Read More about Intelligent DMU creation: Nominal CAD model preparation for automated tolerance allocation.

Virtual reality as a tool to assist learning in aerospace assembly (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Gibson, Z., McGeown, M., Butterfield, J., Marzano, A., & Murphy, B. (2016, August). Virtual reality as a tool to assist learning in aerospace assembly. Paper presented at 33rd International Manufacturing Conference, Limerick, Ireland

This study examines whether virtual reality (VR) is more superior to paper-based instructions in increasing the speed at which individuals learn a new assembly task. Specifically, the work seeks to quantify any learning benefits when individuals have... Read More about Virtual reality as a tool to assist learning in aerospace assembly.

Developing an intelligent digital mock up to integrate design and manufacturing disciplines (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Friel, I., Marzano, A., & Butterfield, J. (2015, September). Developing an intelligent digital mock up to integrate design and manufacturing disciplines. Paper presented at 32nd International Manufacturing Conference (IMC 32), Belfast

This paper presents an approach to develop an intelligent digital mock-up (DMU) through integration of design and manufacturing disciplines to enable a better understanding of assembly related issues during design evolution. The intelligent DMU will... Read More about Developing an intelligent digital mock up to integrate design and manufacturing disciplines.

Design and development of a light aircraft assembly cycle in virtual environment (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Di Gironimo, G., & Marzano, A. (2007, June). Design and development of a light aircraft assembly cycle in virtual environment. Paper presented at International Conference on Intelligent Processing and Manufacturing Materials, Salerno, Italy

The work deals with the design of the assembly cycle of a light aircraft in virtual environment. To date the methodologies of product development are still traditional, this means not to create a competitive advantage towards industries that are pres...
