Head of School of Engineering

I obtained my PhD from University of Sunderland in 2005. I am a Professor of Advanced Maintenance at the University of Sunderland, a Visiting Professor of Operations and Maintenance at the University of Lulea, Sweden, and a Visiting Research Professor at the University of Maryland USA.

My research interests include advanced maintenance management strategies, condition-monitoring technologies, and advanced manufacturing techniques and technologies to support maintenance strategy development; this includes Big Data systems, Industry 4, and the use of Virtual Reality to design new manufacturing systems. I have over 100 conference and international journal publications, 15 invited and keynote presentations, and 4 book chapters. I am currently working with an international colleague on the development of a book to suit industry, which will combine new approaches to maintenance supported by a number of case study examples.

I have worked on a number of local, national, and international projects including the Framework programmes 5 and 6. I have worked with large multinational companies including Nissan, Volvo, Seat, Fiat, BP, and a large number of research and academic institutions.

Title: Development of a maintenance management strategy utilising modern maintenance systems and cost-based performance indicators for complex and large manufacturing assets

Abstract: Modern manufacturing organisations are designing, building, and operating large, complex, and often ‘one of a kind’ assets, which incorporate many different electronic, hydraulic, and mechanical systems and components. Due to this complexity, the need to react quickly to changes in production as the demand changes, and the need for more advanced strategies to ensure high maintainability and availability need to be identified. Modern maintenance strategies including Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) and Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) have proven successful. However, with the increase in complexity and the large number of interconnected components, the use of one single strategy may not provide the necessary detail to support a new approach to maintenance. To develop and implement an appropriate strategy a number of modern maintenance practices and supporting systems including value stream mapping need to be examined to obtain the optimum strategy. This research will examine modern maintenance strategies, in particular RCM, and suggest a new framework to support maintenance activities for complex manufacturing equipment.

Title: Role of ISO 55001 in ensuring effective asset management in SMEs

Abstract: ISO55001 was released by the standards organisation late 2014 and is relatively unknown to SMEs. The complicated structure is built upon a number of existing standards. The research will build upon the very limited research into ISO550001 and how SMEs can adopt this to support an asset management strategy. The major objective of this research is to develop a framework to analyse how SMEs could use ISO55001 to effectively manage their assets that can guarantee success of their business operations.

Title: A user-centred model for the design of manufacturing maintenance training using Virtual and Augmented Reality

Abstract: Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies offer new ways of providing training in manufacturing maintenance. Existing applications of VR/AR in manufacturing maintenance training generally adapt traditional training methods from real-world applications for use in a virtual or augmented environment. The broad aim of this PhD is to develop an approach to maintenance training that will enhance rather than replicate current real-world approaches by utilising underpinning theory on human decision-making and learning in complex environments, including well-established behavioural change techniques and usability criteria. The PhD research will combine various cognitive behavioural models and real-world data to produce a framework of learner requirements mapped to the most appropriate techniques for optimising learning outcomes and efficiencies in a manufacturing maintenance context. The framework developed will underpin the design and development of a suite of training scenarios utilising VR and AR, to be used in experimental trials with specific end users, and the specification of a User Centred Model for the Design of Manufacturing Maintenance Training using Virtual and Augmented Reality.

Title: A new approach to energy management to improve asset utilisation based upon energy consumption as an indicator of asset condition within manufacturing

Abstract: It has been established that poorly maintained equipment is likely to consume more energy than equipment in better condition (Knowles et al, 2010). However, there are a number of reasons that explain an increase in energy consumption, not least that current draw (in amps) is directly proportional to spindle torque during machine cutting cycles. Thus, a heavier-than-normal energy draw may be due to an increased duty cycle.  This PhD will aim to establish a protocol for utilising a network of sensors, of which energy usage will be one, that when linked to Computer-Aided Manufacturing software and or MRP, will provide a rich picture of equipment condition. The system developed will seek to identify potential reasons behind particular sets of data and suggest possible mitigation strategies such as running at reduced speed to complete a job or ignoring for the time being to expedite an order prior to maintaining or recommending immediate shutdown. This is anticipated to reduce costs and improve productivity of manufacturing companies.

Title: The development of a maintenance strategy for the food and drink industry 

Abstract: The application of an appropriate maintenance strategy is vital to ensure equipment availability, efficiency, and quality of product. When physical plant value, maintenance, labour, materials, and overheads are considered, maintenance is the largest single variable operating cost in most companies. Yet maintenance strategy development does not receive a proportionate amount of management attention. Technip Umbilical has decided that maintenance management and therefore asset utilisation strategies are key components that should be included in the number of continuous improvement initiatives currently under development at their manufacturing plant based in Newcastle. The project aims to develop a new approach to maintenance based on detailed research into the many different strategies available. From this, a set of key performance indicators (KPIs) will be developed which are aligned to the corporate strategy and the inherent resource available at Technip. This will help to create a framework from which to develop, implement, and monitor a new approach to maintenance.
