Research themes

We have four main research themes in the Centre all working in the field of sustainable environments.

We are constantly looking for ways we can work with partners to enhance our research and help create a more sustainable future.

Explore our themes and examples of their projects below.

Water engineering and natural environment

Sediment transportation, flow-structure interaction, coastal hydrodynamics and environmental flows.

Composite beams and concrete-filled steel tubes. Reuse of structural elements and materials.

Fibre-reinforced polymers as internal or external reinforcement for concrete structures.

Effect of noise from traffic on the levels of tranquillity in urban and rural environments and noise reducing barriers.
