Understanding Nonlinear Dynamics of Associative Polymers for Healthcare and Sustainable Applications: Computer Simulations and Mathematical Modelling
Introduction. Associative polymers are macromolecules containing associative groups, also called stickers, that undergo reversible association to physically cross link the polymers into transient networks. Read more
A chemical engine to produce mechanical force: towards a physio-chemical model of heart cells
Living systems are complex, and are based on the basic building blocks of genes, proteins, chemical reactions, and physical forces. Read more
Representing ground-atmosphere coupling over complex terrain: the need for a new paradigm
Computer models used to predict the weather (known as numerical weather prediction or NWP models) and climate (known as climate models) do not simulate… Read more
Understanding how electrical communication can regulate metabolic cycles in bacteria biofilms
Project Overview. A biofilm is a robust form of bacteria colony resistant to antibiotics. They have significant impacts on a multitude of industries impacting health and industrial processes such as in food production and water security. Read more
Interbrain dynamical functions for anticipating synchronisation under mutual interactions
How can we communicate with other members of society and synchronise our motion in real-time? Crucial to a sense of communication is the ability to entrain perceptually with other members of society, i.e., to be able to follow and to lead, while maintaining individual autonomy. Read more
Machine learning for affective manipulation in music brain computer interfaces
At the University of Reading, we have created one of the first music brain computer interfaces (BCI). Read more
Fractional order modelling of neurons
Project Overview. Fractional order calculus (integro-differential equations that are of non-integral order) is an emerging methodology with wide applications across all areas of Physics and Engineering. Read more
Materials for thermoelectric energy recovery
"We have a vacancy for a PhD student to work on the synthesis and characterisation of inorganic materials for energy applications. Read more
Computational design of metal-organic framework photocatalysts for solar fuel synthesis
"Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous crystalline materials consisting of metal atoms or clusters connected by organic linkers. Read more
Nano Materials for Applications in Energy Recovery
There is an opportunity to pursue a PhD in solid-state materials chemistry. The project will involve the synthesis of novel nano-scale materials for applications in thermoelectric energy harvesting. Read more
Toxic effects of breast cancer treatment on the heart: using artificial intelligence to predict the potential for heart failure
Project Overview. . Breast cancer is the most common cancer worldwide with ~15% of cases caused by a single gene, HER2. These women are treated with an antibody therapy (e.g. Read more
Improved time-stepping schemes in weather and climate models
"The task of predicting weather and climate may be reduced to the following iterative procedure. First, given the state of the system at any time (the input), use the governing equations to compute the state at a slightly later time (the output). Read more
How is climate change affecting atmospheric turbulence?
Atmospheric turbulence is the leading cause of weather-related aircraft accidents and. incidents. It injures hundreds of passengers and flight attendants annually, costs the aviation. Read more
Novel strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of snakebites
Snakebite envenomation (SBE), a high priority neglected tropical disease affects several million people worldwide resulting in as many as 150,000 deaths and around 500,000 permanent disabilities every year. Read more
Multi-view approaches for content-based image clustering
Human and animal learning are naturally in the so-called semi-supervised mode of learning, i.e. with a limited teaching but more of self-training experiments. Read more
