Monitoring underground rail vibrations
Xi Engineering Consultants designed and installed a targeted vibration monitoring system above an underground rail line, giving the owner clear evidence on building safety and occupant comfort.
-
Design of a personal vibration monitor
Xi helped Reactec move from tool mounted sensors to a body worn personal vibration monitor.
-
Underwater acoustic EIA modelling for a tidal turbine array
Xi supported DP Energy with subsea acoustic modelling and drivetrain analysis for a proposed tidal turbine array off Islay,
-
Microfluidic printing systems for biological assays with Arrayjet
Xi worked with Arrayjet to build solid mechanics and CFD models of their modular microdroplet dispensing system.
-
Isolation system for neonatal transport
Xi Engineering Consultants developed and validated a vibration isolation system for neonatal transport to protect premature infants during critical transfers between hospitals.
-
Ground borne vibration solutions for a residential development beside the Newcastle Metro
Xi Engineering Consultants combined on site vibration measurements and advanced simulation to design a mitigation strategy for a new residential building beside the Newcastle Metro line.
-
Flow induced vibrations in solar shading CFD and structural validation
Xi Engineering Consultants evaluated the aerodynamic, structural and acoustic behaviour of a new solar shading louvre system to de risk performance and avoid costly redesign.
