We are internationally recognised for our excellence in research, attracting research students and staff of the highest calibre. We have major programs in Autonomous Systems, Biomechanics, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics.
-
Biomotion
We use computational models of the human musculoskeletal system to describe and explain muscle and joint function during functional activities, such as walking.
-
Fluid mechanics
Fluid Mechanics examines many aspects of fluid mechanics with a focus on turbulent flows.
-
Integrated computational materials
We design new materials using computational and experimental methodologies.
-
Manufacturing and industrial systems
Helping to create a competitive advantage across manufacturing and process industries by accelerating digital transformation and delivering holistic and integrated solutions for sustainable outcomes.
-
Robotics
Our robotics research includes fundamental research in the area of intelligent manipulation of system dynamics, as well as translational research.
-
Thermodynamics
We undertake studies in transport, power generation and energy systems, with a focus on low emission technologies and energy efficiency.
