Microfluidic devices are promising to revolutionise the biomedical industry from rapid disease diagnostics and modelling to high-throughput drug screening and assessment. Much of the engineering...
Exciting recent developments in Earth Science have instigated a paradigm shift in understanding the role of mush accumulation -- where rock exists as a combination...
This is a mathematical and theoretical project which will explore the relationship between severe storms and large-scale circulation in the atmosphere. The project will exploit...
This project aims to develop new models to simulate the risk of airborne infection in healthcare environments and the effectiveness of control strategies. Airborne infection...
The advent of 3D printing with metal powders has opened up a new era in manufacturing technology and is driving demand for fine, highly spherical...
Convection within Earth’s fluid core generates its planetary magnetic field; spatial and temporal variations of the geomagnetic field can thus be used to study the...
Earth’s jet streams control many features of weather and climate in the extratropics including in the UK and Europe. Most winter weather extremes in these...
There are tens of thousands of kilometres of transport infrastructure in Great Britain. To prevent flooding, maintain performance of railway track and road foundations, and...
The movement of Earth’s liquid core is responsible for generating our planetary magnetic field, yet we know very little about its structure and dynamics because...
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations can assist in treatment planning for cardio/cerebrovascular interventions. This project involves the development of fully-automatic images-to-simulation workflows that can be...
