Electric Motor Torque Estimation
Knowing the torque produced by an electric motor is essential in a wide range of applications. In electric vehicles it is important to deliver the torque requested by the driver, and it becomes very important for good drivability when blending regenerative braking torque with the hydraulic brakes.

Understanding eye-hand coordination in object interception - a computational modelling approach
This PhD project with Dr Yeo will focus on understanding how we perform interception. Interceptive movements--such as catching a gently thrown ball, quickly grabbing a tilting cup to avoid spilling or even just handshaking someone--feel like trivial everyday tasks for us that seemingly look too simple to study.

3D Human Motion Analysis
Research Group:
School of Computing
Human motion is deceivingly simple but intricately complicated. We walk, run and jump on a daily basis without realising how much time and effort we made to master these motor skills when we were little. Read more
Moving together in time: the effects of coordinated movements on physical performance, social cognition and overall wellbeing
Our Social Cognition and Movement Rehabilitation Lab (SCMR) investigates various topics on the role of non˗verbal behaviours in everyday conversations, social-cognitive effects of interpersonal synchrony (two or more individuals moving together in time) and explores movement interventions (e.g. Read more
Multimodal Control of Prosthetic Limbs/Paralysed Muscles
This project aims to enhance the quality of life of patients with amputees, spinal cord injury, stroke and brain injury by developing advanced control strategies for artificial limbs. Read more
Power density and efficiency improvement at low voltage motor drive systems using GaN technology (<200V motors) Reference Infineon-01-2022
This PhD project is part of the. CDT in Sustainable Electric Propulsion. . The successful PhD student will be co-supervised by academics from within the. Read more
Sliding mode based fault diagnosis and tolerant control in PMSM drives for electric vehicles
Most of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive-based applications such as electric vehicles (EVs), high-speed trains etc, are equipped with sensors and actuators. Read more
Ankle moment contribution in everyday tasks: effects of ageing
Research Group:
Medical Engineering
There is a fall on stairs every 90 seconds in the UK, and an estimated 250,000 non-fatal accidents which are serious enough to merit a trip to A&E. Read more
Robotics Actuation Oriented Gearless Electric Drive System
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Nanoscience
Robotics equipped with artificial intelligence are playing an important role in industrial revolution and human life. Extensive research progresses have been reported in robotics vision and intelligent control algorithms, while the development of high-performance electric drive systems seems lagging in the recent years. Read more
EPSRC ICASE Studentship with Siemens: Automated, Adaptive, Intelligent Assembly of Complex Electronics Products Using Modular-Collaborative Robot Technology
This project aims to enable modular-collaborative robots to autonomously deal with part and process variations in complex electronics assembly. Read more
Advanced brain-computer interface
A brain-computer interface (BCI) provides a direct communication pathway between a human brain and an external device. Using appropriate sensors and data processing algorithms, a BCI maps patterns of brain activity associated with a volitional thought onto signals suitable for communication and control. Read more
Advanced phase change thermal management of PEMDs Reference BoydCorp-01-2022
