Research groups
The Department’s research groups are clustered around a number of subject areas vital to both Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering.
Research in the Department is organised into four research groups:
-
Applied Aerodynamics
Leading to an enhanced understanding of, and improved measurement and numerical techniques for, industrially relevant aero / auto flow problems.
-
Control and Reliability
Focusing on the use and development of advanced dynamics and control techniques, and risk and reliability analysis.
-
Low Carbon Technology
Carrying out research that leads to enhanced understanding of industrially relevant aero / auto low carbon technologies.
-
Structural Mechanics and Acoustics
Research into acoustic, vibration, and structural dynamics phenomena and also research activities associated with the design of optimised lightweight metal and composite material structural systems in Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering.
