Faith, religion, belief and global development (RDF25/EE/GES/PECK)
The intersections between faith, religion, belief and global development are multiple and complex. In many countries religion has a foundational role in many aspects of society, and faith-based actors are key agents for development (Tomalin et al., 2019). Read more
Affective Geographies of Bordering and Migration (RDF25/EE/GES/MEIER)
The project will explore ways in which borders and migration are produced, governed, experienced, imagined, contested and/or transformed through affective practices. Read more
Modelling photoprotective memory in plants (RDF25/EE/GES/LIU)
Plants have evolved remarkable complexity to navigate fluctuating environments, perform function while avoiding damage. Their great feat presents us a major scientific challenge. Read more
Enhancing Drug Safety with Explainable Artificial Intelligence and Multimodal Prediction Models (RDF25/EE/CIS/JAGANATHAN)
Developing a new drug in the UK typically takes 10 to 15 years and costs around £1.15 billion. Despite the investment, about 90% of drug candidates fail in clinical trials. Read more
iNeuroCardiology: A Novel Wireless Neural Oscillations and Human Voice based Assistive System for Diagnosis and Forecasting of Cardiovascular Diseases (RDF25/EE/CIS/SPANDYA)
Cardiovascular diseases are the dominant contributor among all the Non-Communicable Diseases(NCDs). Read more
Intelligent Insider Threat Detection Through Activity Trend and User Behaviour Modelling (RDF25/EE/CIS/ISSAC)
Insider threat detection is a critical challenge in cybersecurity, with human errors and malicious activities responsible for a significant number of security breaches. Read more
AI research by, through, and for Design Fiction (RDF25/EE/CIS/RPANDA)
This research aims to explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) through the framework of Design Fiction, while simultaneously examining Design Fiction through the capabilities and perspectives of AI by focusing on three interconnected themes. Read more
Health and Well-being Requirements in the Digital Sustainability Context (RDF25/EE/ABE/ILHANJONES)
The AEC (Architecture, Construction and Engineering) industry, shaped by the socio- economic conditions of a country, is no longer focused on providing a single product (e.g., a building or a physical infrastructure). Read more
Exploring the impacts of human factors on carbon emissions in sustainable buildings (RDF25/EE/ABE/GOH)
The project will examine and explore the key human factors affecting the performance of sustainable buildings and assess how human factors impact the whole-life carbon emissions of sustainable buildings. Read more
Leveraging social media to respond to flooding events for interdependent transport systems (RDF25/EE/ABE/ZHAO)
Extreme weather events such as heatwaves and heavy precipitation have become more significant and frequent duo to climate change, posing threats to life and property. Read more
Hybrid AI Solution to Integrating Standard iContracts in Construction Projects (RDF25/EE/ABE/ABWUNZA)
The gradual shift towards digitalisation in the construction industry has elicited debate on the need to adopt smart contracts. Read more
Towards Sustainable Peatland Management in the UK: An Integrated Study on Carbon Balance and Ecosystem Services (RDF25/EE/MCE/AGARWAL)
Introduction. Peatlands are a significant component of the UK's natural landscape, covering about 15% of the country's land area. Read more
Development of novel model to predict the lifespan of metallic components for application in hydrogen-powered engines/generators (RDF25/EE/MCE/ZHANG)
Hydrogen is an important renewable fuel owing to its high energy content and no carbon dioxide emission [1], which can significantly contribute to the UK Governments ‘2050 net-zero target’, if it is widely utilised in engines/generators. Read more
Tailoring 3D Graphene Materials for Next Generation Supercapacitors (RDF25/EE/MCE/HO)
The development of renewable energy has made significant progress in recent years. Read more
Engineering Next-Generation Antimicrobial Surfaces and Coatings (RDF25/EE/MCE/PARSA)
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global health challenge, leading to prolonged hospital stays, increased healthcare costs, and higher mortality rates due to resistant bacterial infections [1]. Read more
