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.

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

The interests of the Polymers, Composites and Spectroscopy Group (PCAS) encompass polymers, minerals and composites

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

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

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

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

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
