Design of lightweight composite stiffened shell structures using topology optimisation
The aim of this project is to create new topology optimisation methods for the design of composite lightweight stiffened shell structures. Read more
Effects of flexible vegetation on oscillatory flow hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics
Coastal vegetation such as seagrass protects against coastal erosion by attenuating wave energy and demobilising suspended sediments. Read more
Enhancing the performance, condition, safety and reliability of offshore wind energy infrastructure systems using optimal inspections and structural health monitoring
Wind turbines are exposed to frequent structural damage increasing the cost of wind energy generation. To drive these costs down, this project will develop new automated methods for detection of structural damage to wind turbines by examining vibration responses measured by sensors attached to the structure.

Digital Twin simulation of offshore renewable systems
Offshore structures whether oil and gas strength and fatigue life expectancy. A typical offshore structure is made up from a variety of materials and joints thus many challenges are associated with these structures due to various wind and waves loads. Read more
Effects of Aquatic Vegetation on the Transport of Plastics in Rivers
Plastic contamination is an escalating environmental problem. Of particular significance are those pieces that are smaller than 5 mm in size, more commonly referred to as microplastics. Read more
Stochastic response characterisation and reliability driven optimisation of floating wind turbines
As the wind turbine installations move to deep-water environments, there is an increasing focus on the design considerations for floating wind turbines (FWTs). Read more
Numerical Modelling of Cracked Engineering Materials under Dynamic Loading
It is common knowledge that all existing structural materials contain various inter- and intra-component cracks and crack-like defects which appear in materials during fabrication or in-service. Read more
Optimal Design of Fibre Reinforced Composite Pipes and Umbilicals
Currently, the application of composite materials in oil and gas industry lacks proven test methodologies and understanding of technical and fundamental issues relevant specifically to composite materials and structures. Read more
Macroscopic capillary pressure in multi-phase porous media flows
Although multi-phase flow in porous media is an established research field for decades, its theoretical background is still being developed. Read more
Simulations of Floating Offshore Wind
There is limited practical industrial experience in installing and operating of floating wind turbines, due to their relative novelty, especially compared to fixed offshore wind turbines. Read more
