Studying fluid flow in microscale porous media of battery electrodes is crucial for optimising the performance of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), which are widely used in...
This project concerns the aerodynamic design of Hyperloop vehicles. These vehicles are designed to operate in a low-pressure tube environment (typically 100 pa) with transportation...
Strong and lightweight fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely employed across numerous industries. For examples, modern aircrafts such as Airbus A350 and Boeing 787...
The global water sector is facing increasing challenges due to climate change and rapid population growth, with water and energy demand projected to rise by...
The global shipping industry faces increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, and is looking to low carbon fuel alternatives such as ammonia and methanol...
Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) play a pivotal role in determining the properties of clouds and their role in climate change (Murray et al. 2021). However, our...
This PhD project offers an exciting opportunity to investigate the role of environmental contamination in infection transmission, focusing on fomite transmission (via contaminated surfaces). This...
Ventilation in healthcare environments is critical for the prevention and control of infection, however a substantial proportion of UK hospitals have inadequate ventilation. Over the...
Industrial inkjet printing involves the precise generation and deposition of very small drops of liquid with wide-ranging applications from digital printing of ceramic tiles, flooring...
Submarine fan systems are volumetrically the largest sedimentary bodies on Earth. Traditionally, application of research into submarine fan evolution has focused on the distribution of...
