Research
Tim's main area of research is application of advanced control techniques for industrial systems with particular emphasis on aerospace and energy generation. Tim has research experience in modelling, control, performance monitoring and optimisation of industrial systems.
He has experience in collaboration with industrial partners. In particular, he has participated in the development of a digital full authority control system for a new low fuel consumption aero engine and the design of control laws for a low emission staged combustion gas turbine engine.
Tim was also involved in a number of research projects supported by Industry, DTI, the EU INTAS programme, NATO and the Royal Society.
He has been the lead investigator on EP/C015185/1 EPSRC grant on the ‘real-time modelling for condition monitoring and performance optimisation of gas turbine engines’, and one of the leading authors of research proposal for EP/G059837/1 grant focused on energy demand reduction in paper making.
