Queen Mary University of London
Research
Rubber, Elastomer, Sensors, Actuators, Modelling, Tyres
Interests
Examining the physical behaviour by experiment and modelling techniques of soft matter such as elastomers and rubber materials. Properties of interest include abrasion, friction, fracture, creep, fatigue, viscoelastic behaviour, modulus enhancement, self healing, recycling, ageing and composite filler reinforcement. Developing smart soft materials that can sense their environment and soft actuating materials that can change shape in response to a physical stimulus.Publications of specific relevance to the Centre for Intelligent Transport
