Understanding Nonlinear Dynamics of Associative Polymers for Healthcare and Sustainable Applications: Computer Simulations and Mathematical Modelling

University of Reading Department of Mathematics and Statistics

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

Mesoscopic calculations of polymer drag reduction

University of Strathclyde Department of Chemical and Process Engineering

It is known that the addition of a small concentration of polymer chains in a turbulent boundary layer reduces significant turbulent drag in this boundary layer. Read more

Improving the mechanical properties of carbon fibre composites via inkjet printed polymer inclusions

University of Sheffield Department of Mechanical Engineering

Carbon fibre composites have been toughened, and strengthened, by using inkjet printing to deposit discrete droplets of polymer onto the pre-preg that is used to produce the final composite material. Read more

Mathematical and computational modelling of diffusion-driven material ageing

The University of Manchester Department of Mathematics

This project will consider systems of reaction-advection-diffusion equations both computationally and analytically. These find application to modelling corrosion/ageing in materials, where diffusion of a reactant into the bulk material and its subsequent reaction leads to the growth of unwanted corrosion products.
