Report

Assessment and feedback play a central role in the programmatic planning and design of any degree and student learning journey. As experienced educators we assume we know what assessment and
feedback are and what they are for. However, a closer look... Read More about Assessment and feedback in law: Case studies from the sector.

Psychological and physical health outcomes in adults with craniosynostosis (2021)
Journal Article

Objectives: Within current research, little is known about the long-term outcomes of craniosynostosis. A priority-setting exercise by UK charity Headlines Craniofacial Support identified two key questions in this area: 1) What are the long-term phys...

Three-dimensional composites with nearly isotropic negative Poisson's ratio by random inclusions: Experiments and finite element simulation (2021)
Journal Article

Composites with negative Poisson's Ratio (NPR), also known as auxetic composites, are of great interests due to excellent properties. Auxetic composites of various types have been developed, however most of them have anisotropic NPR behaviour. This p...

Design, novel quality check and experimental test of an original variable length stepped scarf repair scheme (2021)
Journal Article

The performance of well-established stepped scarf repair schemes for highly loaded composite structures has been studied in previous works. However, none of the proposed repair schemes appear to minimise healthy material removal. Thus, this paper pro...
