New optical techniques for non-destructive sensing and monitoring
Technical paints provide essential corrosion protection to our infrastructure, which is vital to ensure public safety and drive down the unacceptable economic and carbon cost associated with the replacement of metals. Read more
The next generation of irradiation and corrosion resistant steels for fusion reactor
The United Kingdom is committed to achieving net zero (i.e. net zero carbon emissions) by 2050. This has triggered renewed interest in clean, low emission nuclear power. Read more
Understanding the influence of microstructure on micromechanical behaviour of additively manufactured titanium alloys
Metallic 3D printing – additive manufacturing (AM) – is now being utilised to build large-scale titanium components for aerospace industries. Read more
Investigating the deformation and recrystallisation behaviour in machine-hammer-peened additively manufactured titanium alloys

Investigating Nanoscale Network Polymer Degradation
Research Group:
Polymers and Composites
Network polymers are widely deployed as the matrix in structural composites and high-performance pigmented protective coatings. Surprisingly however, many fundamental aspects of how the properties and structure of these materials degrade upon exposure to the environment remains unknown. 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
Tissue engineering of cardiovascular implants
The Project. Our lab is working on tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVs). We think that the best way to create a TEHV is by using natural materials. Read more
Making Additive Manufacturing Sustainable Using Functionalised Coatings (Fully Funded PhD)
Eligibility. Open to UK students and international students. Fully Funded. 3 years of Home tuition fees (currently £5,860/year) and a tax-free maintenance stipend of £24,000 per year. Read more
