Investigation of the damage-dependent material damping in carbon fibre-reinforced polymers
Carbon fibre-reinforced polymers (CFRPs) are established construction materials due to their superior specific strength and stiffness. Structural health monitoring aims to increase...
Queering the Incomprehensible: antinarrative, temporality, and the trans novel
Conventional narrative within literature has long been understood to be heteronormative (Yong, 2021), imposing a 'coherence and linearity on subjectivity and meaning' whi...
Parton Distribution Functions at Upcoming Experiments
The project will investigate the means of improving upon current determinations of parton distribution functions for use at upcoming experiments such as the high luminosity LHC, th...
Manifesting solitude: invisible personal narratives of confinement, power and violence in the contemporary US prison industrial complex.
I began writing letters to my friend Keith 9-years ago after he participated in my award-winning feature The Divide (2016). After hitchhiking across America aged 15, spending a dec...
Accelerated carbon dioxide release from sedimentary rocks in a warming world
Rocks contain a vast store of carbon locked in the ancient remains of plants and animals. In the upper metre of Earth's surface alone, there is estimated to be more than 1000...
How should cultural dimensions of landscape appreciation inform perceptions of landscape change?
As rightfully highlighted in the advertisement for this studentship, the cultural complexity of landscapes is often overlooked in contemporary climate debate. The disregard for cul...
Next-Generation Photovoltaics: Module and panel design for Roll-to-Roll Printed Perovskite Cells
The project explores a critical barrier to the successful implementation of the perovskite solar close - module design and development. The project will explore how the next genera...
