This seminar is a part of School of Engineering's inaugural seminar series showcasing work and research direction of new appointees as a part of University's Strategic Investment in Academic Growth

This lecture from Professor Sir Jim McDonald - Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Strathclyde, will contextualise the drive for low carbon energy systems.

Abstract of the talk: Wide scientific consensus reflects the need to decarbonize the global energy system, which is responsible for over 90\% of greenhouse gas emissions. This requires drastic reductions in energy demand, across sectors, energy vectors and energy services, combined with a shift to much more sustainable energy supply systems....

This information session is aimed at employers and staff interested in learning more about the BEng Civil Engineering Graduate Apprenticeships programme, as well as teachers and advisors.

Abstract of the talk: This presentation will be very different to the more conventional engineering core subject teaching that you receive as part of your academic studies. It will introduce how engineers can consider where innovation, value and engineering come together. To do this the concept of a ‘value curve’ will...

The talk will fall into two parts: 1. In the post kelvin redefinition era instead of the simple choice of temperature traceability being achieved through the calibration of sensors to the defined temperature scales the user is presented with a more nuanced traceability choice through the mise en pratique for...

Linear diffraction modelling and ocean basin tests giving capture width, response, mooring forces and energy yield for several sites

For girls aged 15-17

Abstract of the talk: Particle formation processes play key role in numerous environmental, biological and industrial processes. Particles can form through phase transitions, often involving nucleation processes, or by aggregation and assembly of molecular or particulate precursors. We focus on understanding of fundamentals of particle formation processes to enable design...
