Dr Alberto Paganini, University of Leicester

Partner: The Alan Nuttall Partnership Ltd

This new knowledge exchange partnership between the University of Leicester and Flexeserve (a brand of The Alan Nuttall Partnership Limited) will demonstrate how state-of-the-art shape optimization techniques and software can be applied to inform manufacturing design. Flexeserve manufactures hot food cabinets in the UK. In this project we will embed new knowledge and capabilities into Flexeserve’s Research & Development team to accelerate the design cycle and reduce its costs. The resulting new methodology will be applied to inform the design of a new generation of sustainable and energy efficient heating cabinets.
