Full waveform seismic processing for mineral exploration
The search for very deep deposits is becoming more and more important in mineral exploration. Due to the absence of surface indicators and the prohibitive cost of deep drilling, indirect methods, such as geophysical surveys, are essential in such context. Read more
Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes
Description. Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes. A ring laser is a self-excited optical oscillator employing a cavity where the round trip path encloses a finite area. Read more
Kirigami-based energy dissipating devices for seismic protection of structures
Kirigami, the Japanese art of paper cutting, can be used to generate complex morphing 3D shapes from a 2D sheet. Children’s pop-up books are a familiar example. Read more
Deep learning surface wave analysis
The National Building Code requires the study of the local seismic effects of any new large building. The use of seismic auscultation methods is an essential part of this work. Read more
The application of Eurocode 8 Part1 around the world
Eurocode 8 (EC8) is a state-of-the-art third generation code for seismic design. It includes well established concepts such as energy dissipation and new concepts such as displacement-based method. Read more
Mapping the coupling properties of the subduction megathrust using seismic data
The properties of the subduction interface between plates vary in both space and time. Read more
Post-earthquake damage assessment of masonry building structures
THIS IS A SELF FUNDED PROJECT. 3 years full time. Available start dates are. 1st October 2021, or 1st January 2022, 1st March 2022. Read more
Structure of the Azores plateau from earthquake seismology
The Azores Plateau is considered to have grown somewhat like Iceland, by excess volcanism at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and by volcanism continuing to historical… Read more
Stainless steel joints in dissipative zones of earthquake resistant structures
To accommodate the detrimental effects of severe earthquakes without collapse, earthquake resisting structures rely on energy dissipation via stable hysteretic response of ductile structural components. Read more
Stainless steel joints in dissipative zones of earthquake resistant structures
To accommodate the detrimental effects of severe earthquakes without collapse, earthquake resisting structures rely on energy dissipation via stable hysteretic response of ductile structural components. Read more
Unlocking the deep-marine stratigraphic record in confined basin-fills
The deep-marine stratigraphic record provides a cryptic archive of palaeoenvironmental change. To unlock this record requires the study of ancient exhumed systems, and improved understanding of sediment gravity flow processes. Read more
The Use of Shape Memory Alloys to Enhance the Behaviour of Framed Concrete Structures
The School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering has seen 100% of its research impact rated as ‘world leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, underlining the wide-ranging positive impacts that our research has on the world (REF, 2021). Read more
Parameters Affecting the Stiffness and Ductility of Reinforced Concrete joints under Cycling Loading
The School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering has seen 100% of its research impact rated as ‘world leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, underlining the wide-ranging positive impacts that our research has on the world (REF, 2021). Read more
Ph.D. student for precision interferometry in gravitational wave detectors
The Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute) is the largest research institute in the world, specializing in general relativity and beyond. Read more
Exploring reactions under stress in the mantle using mineral analogues
Convection in the Earth’s mantle controls Earth evolution. Different mineral assemblages occur at different depths in the mantle and variations over short distances are detectable as seismic discontinuities, thus providing key information on mantle conditions. Read more
