Ï㽶ÊÓƵ

Case studies and research conducted at National HIPIMS Technology Centre

Ï㽶ÊÓƵ is set to deliver world class research and innovation capability to drive next generation physical vapour deposition (PVD) processing following major investment in full digitisation of equipment and technology.

We specialise in solving technical, environmental and economic issues associated with power generation from renewable and non-renewable energy sources

Our research in this area is designed to enable us to condition monitor, inspect and survey infrastructure, e.g. bridges, buildings, heritage structures, underground systems, water retaining structures, and give expert advice on their repair and maintenance.

The Centre for Infrastructure Management has a wide range of capabilities for testing concrete. A brief of each test we perform is given below.

This PhD aims to develop work by means of the relatively new Extended Finite Element Method (XFEM) that permits a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of fracture and crack propagation in advanced composite structures

The Centre for Infrastructure Management can test a wide range of materials and products. A brief of each test we perform is given below.

The Centre for Infrastructure Management has an extensive expertise in assisting organisations to develop innovative products to remain competitive, including concept generation, novel pipe couplings, accelerated concrete curing technology and corrosion prevention systems.

At the Centre for Infrastructure Management, we are able to evaluate and test the comparative thermal performance of reflective and multi-foil insulations.

At the Centre for Infrastructure Management, we have extensive expertise in the characterisation of heritage materials by means of analytical laboratory techniques and in the development and evaluation of mortars and processes for the conservation and repair of heritage structures.
