Research strengths
The primary research interests of the group are in the three broad themed areas of:
- Design search and optimisation
- Applied computational modelling
- Computational methods
This spans cost modelling, design optimisation, solid material modelling, computational fluid dynamics, computational electromagnetics, repetitive structures, contact mechanics, structural dynamics and computational methods.
Research Strategy
We aim to be a centre of excellence for multi-disciplinary engineering simulation and design which combines together a range of analytical, computational, and experimental techniques. Our strength lies in this sophisticated mix of engineering methods coupled to industrial applications: a particular focus for our activities over the next few years will be the development of grid-based problem-solving services for use by academia and industry.
