The effects of building frangibility on blast wave propagation
Supervisory Team. Dr Jack Denny, Steeve Chung Kim Yuen (University of Cape Town). Explosions remain a serious threat to buildings and their occupants due to the occurrence of terrorist attacks, armed conflicts, and large-scale accidents. Read more
Physics-Informed Machine Learning for Blast Load Estimation from Structural Response (S3.5-MAC-Curry)
The loading and resulting deformation resulting from explosive detonations has wide-reaching effects on different people ranging from civilian populations in conflict areas to instances where accidents result in damage. Read more
University of Bath URSA Project: IMPACT: Intelligent Materials for Protecting Against Critical Threats
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the University of Bath URSA competition, for entry in September 2025. Read more
Low Carbon Cements for Construction and Encapsulation
Background. The buildings & construction sector accounts for 37% of global carbon dioxide emissions, with concrete production accounting for approximately 6-8% of global emissions, significantly impacting global climate and the environment. Read more
Fibre-reinforced geopolymer concrete utilising waste materials
The UK's vision for net-zero is a commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to zero by 2050. The UK's net-zero strategy outlines proposals to decarbonize all sectors of the UK economy. Read more
Developing methods to reduce the quasi-static pressures generated by explosions in confined spaces (C4-MAC-Barr)
When explosives detonate in a confined space, repeated reflections of the initial shockwave on the walls and other obstacles lead to the development of a long-term quasi-static pressure (QSP). Read more
