We're really looking forward to this talk at 4pm today by Professor Tanvir Hussain Professor Tanvir Hussain FASM:

.Professor Tanvir Hussain FASM explains how "long-lasting ceramic coatings allow plane engines to operate at higher efficiencies, reducing CO2 emissions by thousands of tonnes a year" in this #COP26 blog bit.ly/3F2ECSB @UoNEngineering #NetZeroAviation #TogetherForOurPlanet

Really pleased to have been able to work with The Charlie Waller Trust, Dr Zoë Ayres and Dave Horsfall on this new guide. Read blog about the guide on our website jonathansvoice.org.uk/protecting-you… and please RT so we can reach as many as possible.

Over the course of just over a decade, more than 430 @UoNEngineering students have built 8 crèches and invested over £1.2m to ensure young children have better learning facilities in the Limpopo province, South Africa. Read the full story ▶ ow.ly/1mWp50JmSbJ #WeAreUoN

The Coatings & Surface Eng team is having a great time. We delivered an invited talk and two other excellent talks at 10th RIPT in Forschungszentrum Jülich | @[email protected]. It’s amazing to see friends and colleagues after 2+ years.

Dr Acacio Rincon Romero giving a talk at 10th RIPT in Julich Germany on how to deposit SiC-YAG coatings from a suspension and solution precursor process. Our process allows impossible to deposit carbide and boride coatings with a simple but elegant strategy.

Kah Leng, 3rd year PhD, presenting an insightful talk on bi and tri layer thermal barrier coatings from suspension HVOF spray & supension plasma spray (SPS) at 10th RIPT in Julich.

Dr Siddharth Lokachari presenting to the group on his 7 years experience working on volcanic ash on aero engine coatings in Germany (LMU/DLR) & Japan. It was a fabulous talk.

We have a new website to showcase the facilities at Centre of Excellence in Coatings & Surface Eng @UoNEngineering Facilities nottingham.ac.uk/research/group… Processing: nottingham.ac.uk/research/group… Testing: nottingham.ac.uk/research/group… Materials Discovery: nottingham.ac.uk/research/group… Feedstock Preparation: nottingham.ac.uk/research/group…

Our visiting Assoc Profs Changxia & Junlong have recently published an article on alumina/grapheme coating for cutting tools. Read more in the link below.

.UoN Science has appointed its very first Royal Society Entrepreneur in Residence that will help academic staff engage with the industry, Love Business reports. Read more ▶️ ow.ly/LquP50NUfWU

We are pleased to unveil our new website - surfaceengineeringforum.org.uk. Please do pay it a visit. It will be added to over the coming weeks and we will also be sharing new content on Twitter and LinkedIn in future.

Great to have Dr Joe Kelleher delivering a seminar on Neutron diffraction for engineering applications at Materials at TUoS - hopefully loooooaqads if inspiration for neutron proposals 😍

All the best Halar from the Team coatings at Nottingham.

The cat is out of the bag! We have a fantastic opportunity to train 60+ PhD students in coming years at the Doctoral Training Centre for Digital Metal. Congratulations to the whole team!
