SESA6090 2029-30
High-Temperature Structural Degradation and Finite Element Modelling
This Level 7 module provides advanced theoretical understanding and computational modelling skills to assess high-temperature structural degradation in aerospace, power generation, and automotive engineering. Students will learn the theory and underlying mathematical frameworks used to describe key mechanisms such as creep deformation, thermo-mechanical fracture and fatigue, oxidation, and hot corrosion, and will examine how these processes influence component integrity in demanding service environments. The analytical content is integrated with finite-element simulations in ABAQUS, enabling students to build, apply, and interpret computational models of high-temperature behaviour in real-life engineering components such as aeroengine turbine blades, rocket engine nozzles, and nuclear reactor structures. By the end of the module, students will be able to diagnose dominant high-temperature failure modes, apply appropriate constitutive and fracture models, and use simulation tools to support design and failure analysis in engineering. -

Highway and Traffic Engineering
This module will provide you with a good knowledge and understanding of the fundamentals of road traffic flow and its analysis, using this as a basis for you to be able to undertake operational analysis and design of key features of the road transport system, particularly the design of the various types of road junction. You will also learn about the Highway Engineering process from its inception of planning and route location, through detailed geometric design and on to structural design, construction, condition monitoring, maintenance and eventual rehabilitation. -

CENV3060 2030-31
Highway and Traffic Engineering
This module combines the two main elements of Highway Engineering – geometric design and road pavement structural design. You will gain an understanding of key issues and practices in both elements, including design case studies where you will put theory in to practice. There is also significant coverage of highway maintenance – an aspect of increasing importance in developed countries with ageing infrastructure. -

Hilbert Spaces
Hilbert spaces are the natural setting for infinite-dimensional linear systems endowed with geometry. Emerging from Fourier analysis and PDEs, Hilbert methods now unify modern analysis, numerical computation, probability, signal processing, machine learning (kernels/RKHS), and quantum theory.
Weeks 1–5 establish foundations: inner products and completeness; projection geometry and orthogonality; bounded operators and adjoints; spectrum and compact operators; and tensor products. Weeks 6–11 revisit the same mechanisms across major domains: Fourier series and wavelets; weak formulations of PDEs and Galerkin methods; RKHS, kernels, and representer theorems; probability as L2 geometry with conditional expectation as projection; martingales; discrete and continuous Itô isometry; and quantum uncertainty as a consequence of Cauchy–Schwarz.
