AI mapping between drivers of future climate uncertainties and weather and climate impacts in Africa

University of Leeds
School of Earth & Environment
Background. There is an urgent need for reliable assessments of high-impact weather under climate change. This is true globally, but Sub-Saharan Africa is not only highly vulnerable, but presents unique challenges for climate prediction. Read more

Magnetically Engineered Austenitic Steels for Low Thermal Expansion and High-Temperature Strength

University of Leicester
College of Science & Engineering
  Research Group: Alloy Design & Phase Transformations Research Group
A steel can be strong at high temperature and still be difficult to use if it expands too much. In large components and joints between different alloys, repeated heating and cooling can create stresses that shorten service life. Read more
