Using earthquakes to constrain stress in the Earth
The magnitude and orientation of stress in the Earth determine how the Earth deforms. It is a first-order feature that one must quantify when considering loads on the Earth’s surface, flow within the Earth’s crust and mantle, or the nucleation and rupture of earthquakes. Read more
The influence of the grain boundary network and grain size on seismic properties of Earth’s mantle
The geological evolution of our planet is tightly linked to deep geodynamic processes, which, themselves, are governed by the physical and chemical properties of the Earth’s mantle. Read more
Exploring the epoch of rapid inner core growth
Our understanding of the long-term evolution of the Earth is informed by analysis of the history of the geomagnetic field that also protects the environment and permits surface habitability. Read more
Early Earth Magnetism: Exploring the role of Earth’s magnetic field in atmospheric evolution
Earth’s magnetic field is often included as a key planetary property for its habitability. This is because it is thought to protect Earth’s surface from harmful cosmic radiation, and prevents the atmosphere from being eroded by the solar wind1. Read more
Deciphering Extraterrestrial Magentism Using Magnetite Framboids
Within just ~5 Myr following the ignition of the Sun, our solar system transformed from a chaotic disk of dust and gas into an organised system of planetary bodies. Read more
CaSiO3 perovskite in Earth’s deep mantle
CaSiO. 3. Davemaoite is a high-pressure and high-temperature calcium silicate perovskite mineral with a cubic crystal structure (Tschauner et al., 2021). Read more
Mechanistic modelling of hydrogen-material interactions
Oxford’s Mechanics of Materials Lab is seeking a PhD (DPhil) student to develop a new generation of mechanistic models to understand the fatigue crack initiation behaviour of metals in hydrogen environments. Read more
EPSRC CDT in Developing National Capability for Materials 4.0, with the Henry Royce Institute
Right now, our society faces huge, urgent challenges. From the imperative to achieve net-zero, to the need to build a resilient, circular economy in an uncertain world, to the drive for increased productivity as our fellow nations embrace the digital revolution. Read more
