ICoN student, Anuradha Herath, outlines how his research aims to optimise the harvesting of waste heat energy from an engine, to improve efficiency and enhance environmental sustainability.
Mobile phones and computers can overheat when they are used for a long time or when heavy duty software is running. Frequent heating of these devices may reduce their performance or life span - but a nanowire based device could significantly mitigate this issue.
Peng Adam Li describes his research which aims to demonstrate why fast, responsive, lightweight and small optical sensors are ideal for monitoring large structures in challenging environments.
ICoN student, Alize Gaumet, discusses why she chose her PhD in structural health monitoring and why it matters.
