Current techniques for depositing decorative and/or protective metal coatings onto metal substrates either involve 'wet' methods, thermal spraying or commercial PVD. Wet methods such as electroplating are used to deposit metals such as platinum, nickel and chromium

A series of synthetic C-S-H phases has been prepared, with the aim of studying structural changes with changes in C/S

Hydration of the two calcium silicate clinker phases, C3S and C2S proceeds, after an initial induction period, to form a poorly-defined calcium silicate hydrate

This project seeks to gain fundamental understanding of the oxidation process of TiN, TiAlN and TiAlCrYN based hard coatings at elevated temperatures, in the range of 700-950 degrees celsius

This PhD aims to develop work by means of the relatively new Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) that permits a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of fracture and crack propagation in advanced composite structures

Within the Centre for Corrosion Technology, facilities exist for conducting localised corrosion tests.

This short course will explore opportunities and limitations of forensic failure investigation of automotive light bulbs

In this application, a machine vision system has been set up to automatically detect defects and damage of industrial nozzles utilised in the Surface Mount Technology (SMT) industry

Value Stream Mapping provides a diagrammatic depiction of the entire supply chain to ensure a complete and shared understanding of what is happening at the different stages within it

For her PhD, Emma is aiming to undertake research in the area of hamstring injury-risk assessment, investigating the mechanism and subsequent ability to predict muscle injury in athletes, developing and using equipment that is real-word friendly and useful for coaches in the field.
