About
I am part time member of staff with a focus on Foundation/Level 3 modules, particularly mechanics and laboratory practices. I have a research background in instrumentation and experimental methods of studying impact behaviour of low-density cellular materials.
Qualifications
- BEng Hons. Mechanical Engineering
- PhD
Domains
Courses taught
My research focuses on the development of novel equipment and test methods to study both static and dynamic properties of low density and cellular solid materials, with a particular focus on dynamic impact performance and recovery at elevated temperatures.
Qualifications
- PhD in Mechanical Engineering
Specialisms
- Impact Performance of Low Density Materials and Cellular Solids
