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
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
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

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
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
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
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
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
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
