Location of The University of Manchester

To ensure a safe society from accidental events (fires, impact, gas explosions, errors in design, etc.), natural occurrences (hurricanes, earthquakes, flooding, etc.) or terrorist attacks, there is a need to understand both material and whole structural response under extreme loads.

Manchester has a well-known track record in researching the behaviour of structures under fire, explosions, impact energy absorption, dynamic response, and high strain rate material response.

The design research team is interwoven with the extreme loading investigations through research into risk and reliability methods. In addition, the design team also concentrates on through-life support of systems, equipment and components. This work comprises conditioning monitoring, single processing, damage detection, and project management.
Manufacturing and Management Group
In recent years, the nature of manufacturing research has shifted in response to new drivers resulting in paradigms such as Micro/Nano Manufacturing, Sustainable Manufacturing, Digital Manufacturing and Innovative Material Processing (IMP) technologies. The Manchester manufacturing group is not only active in these fields but takes a leading role in many of them at an international level.
