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
Tissue-engineering constructs suitable for reconstructive cardiac surgery in patients with congenital heart defect
Congenital heart defects (CHD) are the primary cause of infant deaths in Europe and North America. The primary treatment for CHD is surgery but the major problem with surgery for such defects is the lack of living replacement materials with the capacity of growth and regeneration. Read more
Enhancing ultrasound images using physics-based AI for accurate measurement of blood velocity within the heart
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally with 18 million deaths/year. Ultrasound is an inexpensive, non-invasive imaging technique without ionising radiation and so is widely used in many fields of medicine. Read more
Combined mechanical response of advanced porous materials for body support interfaces
Supervisory Team. Dr Andrew R. Hamilton, Prof. Liudi Jiang; Dr Pete Worsley. Project description. Interface materials between the body and external supports play a consequential role in determining the mechanical loading that the body will experience. Read more
Development of a care pathway for dislocation after total hip replacement
Background. Hip replacement is a common operation (>100,000 annually in the NHS) performed to relieve pain and improve function, predominantly for osteoarthritis. Read more
A multiscale approach to model the biomechanical behaviour of human skin
The skin consists of sub-layers such as stratum corneum, epidermis with morphological parameters varying spatially. Being viscoelastic (similar to cheese), the skin is also subjected to high loading and environmental conditions every day resulting in skin damages. Read more
