Earth's climate can be viewed as a large dynamical system evolving in time.

Prospect's niche is its ability to go back to first principles and use these, often combined with cutting edge computational mechanics, to solve its clients' problems and give them engineering answers they can use directly. This presentation will demonstrate, using two examples, the diversity of the engineering challenges Prospect's...

I will present a new set of geometrically-exact equilibrium equations for the deformation of thin inextensible strips of finite width.

Impacts in mechanical systems are ubiquitous.

The dynamics of the tossed coin can be described by deterministic equations of motion, but on the other hand it is commonly taken for granted that the toss of a coin is random.

This talk will outline some of my recent research into techniques for factorizing polynomial matrices.

The main aim of this work is to investigate different planar base excitation schemes, with respect to energy extraction from a mechanical pendulum. Focus is placed on how each forcing configuration affects the stable rotational motion or stability boundaries associated with stable rotations.
