Digitally enabled development of sustainable metamaterials to create circular alternatives to current unsustainable parts widely used in industry
Manufacturing causes ~20% of global carbon emissions and ~50% of energy use [e.g. 1]. The UK’s third climate change risk assessment [2] suggests the climate crisis has caused irreversible damage. Read more
Optimise and automate pre-production for wire based Directed Energy Deposition (w-DEDAM) production PhD
This 4-year, fully funded PhD project centres on the automation and optimisation of the pre-production process for wire-based Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing (w-DEDAM). Read more
Assessment of Soft Magnetic Properties in Amorphous/Nanocrystalline High-Entropy Alloys through Magnetic Mechanism Modulation aimed at Next-Generation Electrical Machines
A key priority of the UK’s sustainability agenda is zero carbon emissions by 2050. To reach this objective, projections suggest that by 2030, 43% of cars on UK roads need to be electrically powered. Read more

Effects of nozzle design and surface temperature on the wall shear stresses of impinging jets
Impinging jets are flow features seen in heat exchangers and aero engines. Such applications may suffer from the development of deposits which would therefore restrict the heat transfer between the incoming fluid and the solid wall and even affect fluid flow. Read more
Fire Code Design Development for Precast Cladding Façade System.
Research Group:
Architecture, Built Environment and Planning
In a situation where the PCSPF is exposed to fire, the insulation layer should first ensure the thermal protection of the load-bearing layer, stay firm during the fire, and not contribute to fire spread. Read more
