Optimizing Anchor Layouts in Seismic Reinforcement of URM Walls

Unreinforced masonry (URM) load-bearing walls were commonly used in historic buildings but are weak in shear and vulnerable to cracking and damage during seismic events. Read more

Intracellular Capillarity of Biomolecular Condensates

The emerging role of biomolecular condensates formed through a liquid-liquid phase separation process inside biological cells is driving a paradigm change in our understanding of cellular organisation. Read more

Designing Structured Surfaces with Superwettability Properties

The wetting behaviours of liquids on solid surfaces play an important role for a wide range of engineering applications, including coatings, electronics, oil recovery, microfluidics, and inkjet printing. Read more

Advanced computational modelling of nanobubble cavitation dynamics

Rapid changes in pressure, such as in high-frequency ultrasound, can stimulate bubbles to nucleate, oscillate, and collapse violently, in a phenomenon known as cavitation. Read more

A multi-spectral single photon sensor for enhanced 3D vision

Autonomous systems such as self-driving cars are increasingly relying on LIDAR systems for robust environmental perception, with single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) sensors, which detect and time individual photons of light, being one of the key underlying technologies. Read more

Adaptive sensor fusion for optimised 3D sensing

Single-photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) enable the detection and timing of individual photons of light and have become a key technology in applications such as automotive LIDAR and biomedical imaging. Read more

Novel preforms for Automated Fibre Placement

Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) is an emerging technique to manufacture advanced composites for the aerospace industry. One of its main advantages is the possibility to define complex fiber paths to optimize the stiffness for a given loading scenario. Read more

4D printed composite morphing structures

4D printed actuators transform energy into mechanical motion in response to specific stimuli. They are employed to conduct a range of unique tasks such as self-assembling, and conceive compact systems with a low manufacturing and maintenance costs. Read more

Smart Surfaces for Anti-Scaling

Scaling and mineral deposits that occur due to dissolved materials in water is a problem in many industrial applications. How to remove this scaling without the use of harsh chemicals or methods to prevent it is crucial importance to both the environment and the economy. Read more
