Tailoring the Thermomechanical Properties of High Performance Aerospace & Automotive Composite Materials
Interested in high performance, lightweight composite materials? Take advantage of the fact that companies in the aerospace and automotive sectors are currently looking for good materials scientists and engineers with a composites PhD!. Read more
Composite Materials with integrated ‘‘massless’’ energy storage for use in civil and mobile applications such as electric vehicles, drones, and composite planes
Nowadays in electric cars, batteries, contribute a large part of the vehicle's weight, which means additional footprinting and load bearing function. Read more
Optimal Design of Fibre Reinforced Composite Pipes and Umbilicals
Currently, the application of composite materials in oil and gas industry lacks proven test methodologies and understanding of technical and fundamental issues relevant specifically to composite materials and structures. Read more
Investigation of the Fibre-matrix Interface for Glass Fibre & Carbon Fibre Composites Exposed to LH2 Cryogenic Loading and Fatigue Conditions.
The aim of this project is to understand and quantify the fibre-matrix interface for current generation resin (e.g. epoxy) and fibre combinations, (e.g. Read more
Design of lightweight composite stiffened shell structures using topology optimisation
The aim of this project is to create new topology optimisation methods for the design of composite lightweight stiffened shell structures. Read more
Structural Integrity Finite Element Analyses of Formula I Composite Panels for Safer and Lighter Designs
Formula 1 car composite panels are subjected to extreme loads. Cracks can develop at the composite microstructure at an early stage and then propagate due to fatigue which poses a serious hazard. Read more
Composite Structures
Composite structures are extraordinarily versatile. They have been used across mechanical, aerospace, civil engineering sectors in a range of applications (airframes, new car configurations, etc). Read more
Advanced study into microdamage phenomena in composite materials for hydrogen economy
Research Group:
Materials and Manufacturing
Hydrogen as an energy carrier has the potential to be the leader of industrial decarbonization. Read more
Sustainable car design using Bio-composite materials
Project introduction. The production and usage of today’s modern cars is a major contributor to global CO2 emissions. Although technology has moved a lot, the main processes to mass produce a car, have remained the same namely; injection moulding, stamping and casting. Read more
Development of highly stable porous composite membranes for separation of greenhouse gases
Research Group:
Chemistry and Biosciences
Metal-organic frameworks or MOFs are a class of porous materials made of metal ions and rigid organic linkers, which are known as secondary building units or SBUs. Read more
Enhancement of electrical conductivity of carbon fibre composite for resisting lightening strike on aircrafts
In the structure of new advanced civil aircrafts the main fuselage structures are being redesigned to use carbon fibre-reinforced composites (CFRP) mainly due to their lightweight, high specific stiffness and strength. Read more
Recycling Polymeric-based Composites for Construction Applications
In the UK, glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) contributes to 75,000 tons end of life waste in addition to 6,200 tons of production waste. Read more
