Digital Manufacturing
The use of additive manufacturing and 3D printing, which has been in development over the last 30 years, is steadily becoming the norm for many companies in order to produce complete and complex product prototypes, as well as undertake small batch production. Find out more about the research opportunities in this very innovative and rewarding field of manufacturing research.
Development of Thermal Imaging to Monitor Wounds in Skeletal Surgeries
The aim of this project is to develop innovative thermal imaging solutions to assess and monitor inflammation and surgical tissues' reaction and the time taken for them to settle down after skeletal surgeries.
Development of accelerometry to assist in vestibular dysfunction examinations and to reduce falls
This study aims to develop accelerometry techniques in order to accurately measure the body's posture and movements and use signal processing and artificial intelligence methods to analyse and interpret the information.
Long-term collaboration with an industrial partner
This case study looks at how an Innovation Voucher from Innovate UK led to a long-term collaboration with an industrial partner
Plasma Investigations of the HIPIMS Discharge Industrial funding
High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HIPIMS) has been developed on rotating PVD magnetron sources for uniform deposition on 200mm single wafer tools for barrier and seed layer deposition in through silicon vias (TSV)
Coatings Analysis
We offer a complete coating development package giving a choice of composition, architecture (monolayer or multilayers) and PVD deposition techniques to suit specific needs.
Coatings for New Efficient and Clean Coal Power Plants
Steam turbine components face various challenges, related to higher temperatures such as material failure due to high temperature oxidation, and phenomena such as creep and erosion caused by descaled fragments. HIPIMS deposited CrN/NbN coatings utilising nanoscale multilayer structure have shown a promising performance when subjected to various types of high temperature tests in an aggressive pure steam environment.
