Shaping the Future of Global Sustainability Policy
The need for international cooperation has never been greater. The "triple planetary crisis" of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution is a global threat that requires global solutions. But what are the routes for academic research to influence decision-making on an international scale? Join Sustainable Futures and Policy@Manchester...
Expert Insights Series | Nuclear and Net Zero: The global status of nuclear
Nuclear energy is essential in achieving the Net Zero goal. This has been emphasised as more governments announce strategic plans of nuclear power plants construction. While welcoming the “AI revolution” and anticipating enormous electricity consumption, nuclear fission sees its biggest potential ever in the next 30 years. At the same time,...
Training course on visualisation and quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day in person training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray...
Training course on in situ experiments and digital volume correlation
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...
Training course on advanced scripting and batching of tomographic datasets
Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
