Numerical Modelling of Cracked Engineering Materials under Dynamic Loading
It is common knowledge that all existing structural materials contain various inter- and intra-component cracks and crack-like defects which appear in materials during fabrication or in-service. Read more
Modelling slip bands and short crack growth in Ni-based superalloys using discrete crystal plasticity
In metal fatigue, microplastic strain localisation leads to the formation of discrete slip bands, which contribute to the initiation and propagation of short cracks. Read more
Investigation of white etching crack damage mechanism in wind turbine gearbox bearings
Modern wind turbine gearbox bearings are failing prematurely, by white structure flaking and axial cracking, which may be caused by the propagation of subsurface white etching cracks (WECs). Read more

Investigation of hydrogen embrittlement of steels for the hydrogen transport energy future
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE), the loss of the ductility due to the diffusion of atomic hydrogen in steels, has major consequences in pipelines. Read more
Fracture assessment of large-scale structural components through the selection of matching small-scale laboratory specimens
You will join the internationally recognised researchers in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. This fracture mechanics-oriented research project will be focused on the crack-tip constraint effect. Read more
Modelling of Compressive Transverse Cracking on Composite Laminates
In analyses of failure in composite laminates, extended finite element analyses using Abaqus (or Ansys) might prove convenient for the prediction of transversal cracks on composite laminates subjected to compression. Read more
Multi-Scale Modelling of the Fatigue and Fracture of Aerospace Alloys
The drive for greater fuel efficiency is making the production of lightweight structures with adequate strength and endurance a primary concern for the aerospace industry. Read more
Computational Mechanics of Fracture on Advanced Composite Aerospace Structures
Over the last decade there has been a significant increase in the use of composite laminates in the aerospace industry in a drive to reduce weight and as a result to reduce emissions. Read more
