Organisation profile
The Department of Mechanical Aerospace Engineering (5-rated RAE 2008) hosts a broad range of leading edge research programmes clustered in the three domains of Engineering Science, Engineering Mechanics and Engineering Systems. Our work spans a range of length scales from understanding the behaviour of nano-fluids for future medical devices to designing large ocean power systems for renewable energy supply. Our industrial collaborations encompass a wide range of key engineering sectors including energy, health, aerospace and transportation. As a flexible and broad based department which can translate ideas from conception to application, we welcome new partnerships with industry, government and academia.
Research Structure:
Engineering Science. In Engineering Science we tackle complicated engineering situations, that may have many interacting effects, by creatively applying the basic sciences, such as physics.
Engineering Mechanics. In Engineering Mechanics we investigate computational mechanics and finite element analysis, underpinned by core activities in mechanics of solids and structures.
Engineering Systems. In Engineering Systems we integrate engineering expertise across clusters to explore new concepts in the targeted areas of Energy, Health and Aerospace.
