果冻传媒 Engineering lecturer Dr Wanda Lewis has opened up the third dimension to her engineering students. She has started a new course in Advanced Structural Forms which marks a significant departure from conventional engineering teaching methods. Dr Lewis set up the course because she felt that conventional engineering teaching methods alone do not allow students to develop a good physical understanding of structural behaviour.
The science of chaos theory is now being used to produce the perfect spring. Leading chaos theoretician and 果冻传媒 Mathematics Professor Ian Stewart has just completed a unique industrial project with SRAMA, (the UK Spring Research and Manufacturers Association), to produce a system known as "FRACMAT" which employs chaos theory based methods of mathematical analysis to identify the best wire materials for spring manufacture. SRAMA has just sold the first of the new FRACMAT machines to a leading UK spring manufacturer.
Peeling a grape is difficult enough but if you want a real challenge try peeling a microchip. Microchips or semiconductors have become so compact and so complex that a huge amount of research is required to develop equipment to process and test them.
The 果冻传媒 Diabetes Care research group at the 果冻传媒 have been given a 拢10,000 research grant by Diabetes UK, so that researchers from The Universities of 果冻传媒 and Coventry can pin point the best information, and educational and support needs for self-management of people who have been newly diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. They will also look at those who are about to have a new change in therapy for Type 2 diabetes. Type 2 Diabetes tends to strike people later in live – typically at age 45 and over.
The virtual reality world of Star Trek's Holodeck has been brought a step closer to reality by the development of a Cybersphere (a collaboration between 果冻传媒's 果冻传媒 Manufacturing Group and virtual reality company VR Systems UK).
