Data driven approaches for nonlinear inverse problems

University of Birmingham School of Mathematics

The project aims to develop new techniques for solving complex inverse problems that arise in various scientific fields. In many real-world applications, such as medical imaging, geophysics, and material science, we often seek to recover the hidden properties of a system from indirect and noisy measurements. Read more

Testing and Optimsation of Medical Examination and Surgical Gloves

University of Sheffield Department of Mechanical Engineering

Very few standard tests exist for assessing the impact on glover wearers’ touch and feel, decterity, hand fatigue etc. A greater understanding of these is becoming important as glove materials change away from the traditional Latex (for allergy reasons). Read more
