Offline Programming For Short Batch Robotic Welding, Nathan Larkin, Aleksandar Milojevic, Zengxi Pan, Joseph Polden, John Norrish

Robotics based automation has many advantages over both manual operation and dedicated hard automation. In practice however the robot programming overhead and high cost of dedicated jigging are serious impediments to its use for short production runs. Offline programming packages offer an attractive alternative to reduce programming time and robot down time, however many of the available packages are fairly complex and treat the geometric programming and welding operation separately. The paper will describe the development of alternative approaches and the evaluation of an integrated offline robotic welding package (RinasWeld) which addresses these issues and makes low volume robotic welding …

Numerical Investigation Of A Reaction In A Batch Reactor: Flammability Limits, M. J Sexton, Harvinder Sidhu, Mark Nelson

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

We study the spatial behaviour of the hydrogen-chlorine reaction in a batch reactor. The solutions exhibit regimes of slow and fast reaction. The main aim of this work is to distinguish between flaming and non-flaming mixtures from the numerical solutions. After setting out a practical criterion for flammability, we construct diagrams in parameter space which display the regions in which the reaction mixture is flammable.
