Interaction between medical materials and skin

This project will build on previous research within the department to characterise and understand the interaction between medical materials and skin such as gloves, incontinence pads, masks and dressings. Read more

Mechanical metamaterials for impact protection

Aim. Optimisation of mechanical metamaterials to reduce impact severity. Summary. Mechanical metamaterials are engineered to have properties that cannot be achieved with their unstructured, intrinsic constituents. Read more

Gaseous Pipeline Transport and its underground porous media Storage for NET ZERO Innovation

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Biomechanics of internal fixation methods for ankle fusion

Ankle fusion is a common treatment for advanced ankle arthritis to relieve pain and improve functional outcomes. However, there is a reported non-union rate of 5-37%, requiring further surgery or an ankle replacement. Read more
