The zenithal bistable device (ZBD) is a bistable LCD device with major optical, mechanical and operational advantages over other bistable technologies

An introduction to using the lattice Boltzmann method for Multi-component fluid flow analysis

One of our main interest is to capture the correct behaviour of a blood flow inside a capillary, where the hydrodynamics of each cell has to be resolved explicitly

Lattice Boltzmann has been used as the host of the hydrodynamics simulation. It is a fairly recent method based on the well known Boltzmann probability distribution function. The following aims to give the reader the essential concept of lattice Boltzmann.

We have extensive experience of simulating liquid crystalline behaviour at a range of length-scales. At a molecular scale, we have developed a particular expertise in mixture systems and in anchoring at patterned substrates

Using the same types of simulation on other choices of simple particle systems, we have developed a specific expertise in observing the development of soft triply-periodic structures such as the Gyroid

Arc discharges are used for pretreatment of substrates prior to coating deposition

In this work, we are using molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the principles by which highly anisotropic nanostructures nucleate and grow

Microscopes have very limited depth-of-focus. This imposes a variety of constraints when building imaging and vision solutions for microscopes. The MMVL vision software for the MiCRoN-project uses a geometric hashing technique to compare all images in an image stack with the scene
