4-year PhD Studentship: Assessing long-lasting pain following hot-iron disbudding in dairy calves

Although freedom from pain is a key pillar of animal welfare, painful procedures are still common on most dairy farms. For instance, despite being painful1, hot-iron disbudding is still performed on the vast majority of calves. Read more

Non-linear cochlear mechanics: Models and measurements

Supervisory Team.   Ben Lineton. Project description. The mechanical response of the cochlea to sound exhibits an intriguing array of different non-linear phenomena, involving interactions across time and frequency. Read more

Rapid production of hollow spheres using coaxial nozzles: experiments

Supervisory Team.   Ivo Peters, John Shrimpton. Project description. When a gas surrounded by a liquid film flows out of a coaxial nozzle, the stream can spontaneously deform into liquid shells. Read more

Prolog, constraint programming and algebra

My collaborators and I have written two recent papers which are intended to demonstrate that logic and constraint programming are tools which need to be better known and more widely deployed in pure mathematics. Read more

Exploring Advanced Materials for Mitigating Cavitation Damage

Supervisory Team.   Ivo Peters. Project description. Cavitation damage poses a substantial threat to equipment across various industries, impacting performance, increasing maintenance costs, causing downtime, and posing safety and environmental risks. Read more

Thermo-electric materials for tab cooling of advanced batteries

Supervisory Team.   Prof Richard Wills, Dr Iris Nandhakumar. Project description. Effective thermal management of lithium-based battery systems is important for optimising cell efficiency, reducing cell degradation and preventing catastrophic failure. Read more
