(EPSRC Advanced Metallic Systems CDT) Titanium cold dwell fatigue loading - effect of stress concentrations
Research Group:
Advanced Metallic Systems CDT
This project sits within the Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Advanced Metallic Systems - a distinct research centre formed by a partnership between the Universities of Sheffield and Manchester and the I-Form Advanced Manufacturing Centre, Dublin. Read more
Fatigue life assessment of old steel truss bridges
Steel trusses have widely been used over the last 150 years for railway and highway bridges. 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
Fatigue and Fracture of Fibre Composites
Aircraft manufacturers are now competing based on their aircraft’s fuel efficiency due to the high cost of aviation fuel. As a result, in recent years, these manufacturers have turned more and more to the use of lightweight composites in their designs for almost every component of their aircraft. Read more
Improving the fatigue life assessment of offshore wind turbine support structures by considering manufacturing imperfections
An efficient source of renewable energy, which is increasingly the preferred solution for realising the UK’s short- and long-term energy demand, is offshore wind. Read more
Critical assessment of end of design life fatigue damage analysis for life-extension of offshore wind infrastructure
An efficient source of renewable energy, which is increasingly the preferred solution for realising the UK’s short- and long-term energy demand, is offshore wind. Read more
(EPSRC Advanced Metallic Systems CDT)- Thermo mechanical effects on Ti deformation mechanisms in cold dwell.
Research Group:
Advanced Metallic Systems CDT
The Centre for Doctoral Training in Advanced Metallic Systems is a partnership between industry partners and the Universities of Sheffield and Manchester and the I-Form Advanced Manufacturing Centre, Dublin. Read more
High speed photography to investigate surface wear and fatigue in railway rail and wheel steels
A novel high speed photography technique is being developed at Sheffield which will give new insight to the very earliest stages of railway rail and wheel surface modification during contact. Read more
Digital Twin simulation of offshore renewable systems
Offshore structures whether oil and gas strength and fatigue life expectancy. A typical offshore structure is made up from a variety of materials and joints thus many challenges are associated with these structures due to various wind and waves loads. Read more
Fatigue Damage Mechanism of Cable-stayed Structures under Corrosion Attack and the Quantum Technology for Corrosion Inspection and Monitoring
Directly using a series of parallel cables to support bridge decks (known as cable-stayed bridges) offers a number of advantages over traditional bridge structures, such as cantilever bridges and suspension bridges. 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
Facial emotion analysis to assess the engagement level and reduce video conferencing fatigue
Research Group:
Visual Computing
Faces are a source of rich information about individual identity, and also about mood and mental state, being accessible windows into the mechanisms governing our emotions. Read more

Correlative Analysis of Engineering Alloys in 3D
Project Description. The material performance of engineering alloys is highly dependent on its crystal properties. Microstructure characterisation is critical to the understanding of the key features that control the mechanical behaviour of materials. Read more

This project sits within the Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Advanced Metallic Systems - a distinct research centre formed by a partnership between the Universities of Sheffield and Manchester and the I-Form Advanced Manufacturing Centre, Dublin. 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
