Motion models of mobile robots
Details of motion models of mobile robots project undertaken by Sheffield Hallam University's Materials and Engineering Research Institute
Self Assembly of Fibres and Ribbons
In this work, we are using molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the principles by which highly anisotropic nanostructures nucleate and grow
Modelling Clay Polymer Nanocomposites
In collaboration with Prof Chris Breen and colleagues, we have been using molecular-resolution simulations of clay galleries to investigate detailed structural behaviours that underpin coating treatments used for food packaging applications.
Testing Services
We have a wide range of capabilities for testing concrete at the Materials and Engineering Research Institute
Process Modelling and Simulation
If you are looking to improve processes in order to maximise service levels to your customers, reduce operating costs or eliminate bottlenecks, but need to understand what the impacts of these changes before implementing them, process modelling and simulation could be the perfect solution
Barrier materials based on PVOH
The increasing demand for sustainable paper-based packaging is driving research towards developing renewable coating materials with high barrier properties against gas, water vapour and odours
Characterisation and optimisation of the zenithal bistable device
The zenithal bistable device (ZBD) is a bistable LCD device with major optical, mechanical and operational advantages over other bistable technologies
HIPIMS
Licensed process for the upscaling and implementation of High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering technology for the deposition of hard coatings
Energy in buildings
We specialise in optimising energy usage in domestic, industrial and commercial buildings, both newly built and retrofitting
Energy recovery
The amount of energy available in waste heat is vast, and it presents an opportunity for great enhancements in process efficiency
