Innovative design tool for the optimization of blast-enhanced facade systems
Journal of Facade Design and Engineering, 2015 In current blast enhancement design strategies, to resist the effects of an accidental explosion, a facade system is commonly designed to behave in-elastically and undergo large deformations. The large deformation of the facade system leads to high blast

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Feasibility study of an induction motor rim drive for an aircraft boundary-layer-ingestion fan
The Journal of Engineering, 2019 This study presents a feasibility study for an induction motor rim drive to power aircraft boundary-layer-ingestion (BLI) fans. The design is developed from a BLI-fan specification for traditional aircraft architecture: the rotor is fastened to the rim ...

Managing engineering design in complex supply chains [PDF]
, 1996 The trend towards organising design, development and manufacture via supply chains, rather than predominantly in-house, poses major challenges for design management. Procurement methods based on adversarial competitive tendering are generally unsuited to

On site challenges for the construction of 16-storey condominium: as observed by a young civil engineering technologist [PDF]
, 2020 The difference between an engineer and an engineering technologist is that, an engineer would mainly focus and produce structural designs based on engineering calculations, while the job of an engineering technologist is to execute the design in the real

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These
