Development a device to assist people with degradation in their hearing
In this study an integrated tool based on microprocessors and sensors will be developed to improve the life experience of deaf or those with significant degradation in their hearing.
Wireless multimedia communication quality of service assessment
The aim of this project is a continuation of our existing study that resulted in innovative solutions to measure quality of service in wireless computer networks.
Infrastructure management
Our Centre for Infrastructure Management (CIM) has a strong track record and reputation in the fields of environmental protection, infrastructure management and materials and recycling solutions
Innovative construction materials
We have a strong track record of undertaking research and development for the creation of new materials from waste. We can also apply corrosion prevention methodologies to extend a product's life and have developed new coatings, all meeting environmental legislation, for a range of innovative applications.
Automation and robotics
We have brought together robotics related research, teaching and consultancy in order to create a focal point where diverse robotics and automation projects are developed alongside each other
The National HIPIMS Technology Centre
High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering is the latest development in PVD coating deposition technology
Intumescent coatings
Intumescent coatings are used to protect structural steelwork during a fire. These coatings expand 50 to 100 times when heated in air
Lesker UHV Sputtering Rig
Ultra high vacuum PVD system with three magnetron sources and one UHV arc source
