The second KE award for 2015 was presented to the engineering team with Dr Carmelo Mineo, Dr Charles MacLeod and Professor Gareth Pierce. The team worked closely with Spirit AeroSystems staff, to develop an automated NDT/metrology solution (a robotic prototype system) to automate the measurement and inspection of large-scale composite aerostructures. The Faculty of Engineering awarded the group for having "demonstrated excellence in knowledge exchange and industry engagement and in 2015".
