Applications are invited for a self-funded, 3-year full-time or 6-year part time PhD project. The PhD will be based in the School of Mechanical and Design Engineering and will be supervised by. Read more
Conjunctival injury can severely diminish a patient’s quality of life. The overall aim of this project is to restore that patient’s quality of life by implanting a synthetic conjunctival graft to repair and regenerate lost or damaged tissue. Read more
Woven prepreg are commonly employed as raw materials for carbon fiber reinforced polymer(CFRP) composites. In compression molding, the prepreg will generate uneven deformation in the product which is determined by the localized strain. Read more
Composite materials (cement-based or polymeric-based) have been widely used for several decades for the construction or repair of the infrastructure or built environment. Read more
Although composites provide a great deal of advantages and enhanced characteristics which have driven improvements to their structural and aesthetic applications, there still lie major disadvantages and drawbacks in the recycling of these life limited materials as well as the ecological harm in utilising the petroleum based resins.

Introduction. The most common composite material consists of carbon or glass fibres that are bonded together with a polymer matrix and are often referred to as carbon or glass fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP or GFRP). Read more
Fibre reinforced composites with thermoset polymer matrix are replacing metallic engineering alloys due to their strength/weight ratio specially in the aerospace and automotive industries. Read more
