Project Description. The detection and monitoring of substances from a distance is extremely important to several industrial production and safety processes. Read more
To ensure safe and efficient operation, electric actuators should be controlled on a suitable operative environment, which includes temperature and pressure as well. Read more
The project is aimed at developing an open expert system for the end user and also for the developer to carry out the risk analysis involved in systems utilizing upcoming new energy technologies. Read more
Many tests exist for assessing floor surface slip resistance. These can, in some cases, produce conflicting results, particularly for certain types of surface textures. Read more
Supervisory Team. Dr Chris Holmes and Prof Richard Wills. This project explores the cutting-edge intersection of battery technology and photonics, by proposing a new condition monitoring systems for electrical energy storage. Read more
Fire remains a major risk in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Fire safety research therefore plays an important role in developing fire simulation tools for risk assessments in nuclear facilities. Read more
Explore the space where physics-based modelling and artificial intelligence meet. Join this project on ultrasonic non-destructive characterisation of complex materials. Read more
Formula 1 car composite panels are subjected to extreme loads. Cracks can develop at the composite microstructure at an early stage and then propagate due to fatigue which poses a serious hazard. Read more
Why is this research important?. The demand for electronics is unprecedented, with processors needed for consumer devices and cloud computing. Read more
Project Overview. Marine microplastic pollution is a critical and escalating global environmental challenge. An estimated 150 million tonnes of plastic have accumulated in the world’s oceans, with over 12 million tonnes added each year. Read more
Title. Nano-Solutions for Tomorrow's Vehicles. Energy-Efficient, Anti-Bacterial Coatings for Electric Car Air Conditioning in collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover. Read more
Supervisory Team. Dr Chris Holmes, Dr Peter Glynne-Jones. This project explores the cutting-edge intersection of acoustics and photonics, enhancing acoustic emission detection using innovative optical fibre designs. Read more
