Understanding of bubble-particle interactions in froth flotation: novel applications in recycling and minerals processing
Pioneered by the minerals industry, froth flotation is an established method of separating minerals in a slurry based on the relative hydrophobicity of the particles. Read more
Improving Air Lubrication Systems through deeper understanding the physics of operation
Supervisory Team. Dominic Hudson (CMEE) and Adam Sobey (CMEE). Project description. Despite being an efficient form of transport, shipping causes between 2-3% of world emissions. Read more
Mathematical modelling of cavitation development
Cavitation generation has been much of a mystery for more than a century. A core unresolved challenge is how bubble growth subject to acoustic forcing occurs over millions of cycles of oscillation, which cannot be simulated by any CFD packages. Read more
Project title: Mathematical modelling for dynamics of encapsulated microbubbles for October 2023 entry
Background to the Project. Cancer drugs are usually toxic and kill both cancer cells and healthy ones, but typically less than 0.5% of the drug dose reaches cancer cells. Read more

Pinatubo apatite: a proxy for pre-eruptive volcanic gas emissions?
Project Description. Project Highlights. · A unique petrological perspective gained from looking inside an active volcano. Read more
Mathematical modelling of dynamics of a cloud of microbubbles for October 2023 entry
Cavitation typically takes place in a cloud of a billion microbubbles, which usually take spherical shapes due to strong surface tension. Read more
Physical and chemical signals of degassing and vesiculation during magma ascent at ocean island volcanoes
Research Group:
Geoscience
Magmatic volatiles provide the driving force for volcanic eruptions through the positive feedbacks between gas exsolution and bubble growth during magma ascent. Read more
Synthesis and real time observation of radiation damage and corrosion of engineered ceramic nuclear waste forms
Background. Owing to large scale reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel there is a significant inventory of plutonium in the UK. Storage and final disposal of plutonium is one of the most complex challenges facing the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) in dealing with the UK’s nuclear legacy. Read more
