Soluble proteins can be readily used for biotechnology applications. Enzymatically-active protein domains tethered to cell membranes can be also easily accessed by expressing the soluble domain. Read more
Graphene has remarkable hydrophobic properties which are ideal for wastewater treatment. Naturally, Graphene repels water, but allows permeation when there are narrow pores within it. Read more
Carbon zero targets are often presented in relation to operational energy. Design solutions to achieve these goals alone can, in many instances, result in increased embodied carbon and embodied plastic content and can reduce opportunities for material re-use. Read more
Corrosion of reinforcing steel in conventional Portland Cement (PC)-based concretes exposed in challenging environments is a common problem, leading to cracking and spalling and its repair is a big cost to the UK economy. Read more
Our climate is changing. In the UK, winters are getting warmer, summers are experiencing higher temperatures, and extreme weather events, such as heavy rainfall or heatwaves are increasing in frequency and magnitude. Read more
The Dulin lab offers one fully funded PhD position for 4 years to start as soon as possible in the field of in vitro single-molecule biophysics to investigate the regulation of SARS-CoV-2 replication and transcription. Read more
The working life of reinforced/prestressed concrete elements is often determined by serviceability limit state which is governed by the movement of harmful moisture into the structure and propagating/initiating corrosion of steel reinforcement. Read more
4D printed actuators transform energy into mechanical motion in response to specific stimuli. They are employed to conduct a range of unique tasks such as self-assembling, and conceive compact systems with a low manufacturing and maintenance costs. Read more
Wind turbines are highly reliable machines that are typically operated in remote offshore areas. The deployment of wind turbines is growing massively… Read more
Maritime activities remain a crucial factor to the economy with high expectations for future growth. According to the United Nation, there are more than three billion people depend on marine and coastal biodiversity for their livelihoods. Read more
As life-expectancy improves for people living with cystic fibrosis (pwCF), new challenges in optimally managing an older, co-morbid population are likely to arise. Read more
How can concrete materials (the most utilized material in the world) be additively manufactured to reduce the construction cost of nuclear energy facilities?… Read more
