Agent-Based model of stock markets

It is a matter of fact that a majority of people are affected directly or indirectly by stock market activity. They are affected directly, by trading assets in stock markets, and in more...

Upper limb hypermobility in musicians and its associations with pain and performance

The aim of this project is to investigate the extent of upper limb hypermobility in a range of orchestral musicians of different levels of expertise, and to determine the associate more...

Discrete Element Simulations of Human Crowds

In an increasingly populated world the importance of building architecture that is able to handle dense events is becoming increasingly significant. Crowd events cover a wide scope more...

Using a patient’s respiratory and cardiac signal to adjust image acquisition.

Imaging a lung tumour is difficult because the tumour and organs are blurred as we breathe and our heart beats. The aim of this project is to eliminate blurring caused by respirato more...

Imaging a patient while they move

Diagnosing knee, shoulder and back complaints can be difficult because we currently cannot image a patient as they walk or pick up an object. The aim of this project is to develop more...

Performance of granular matrix under heavy haul cyclic loading

The project aims to examine the performance of granular material under repeated (cyclic) loads relevant to road and rail applications. Based on discrete element simulations of spher more...
