An innovative miniature surveillance helicopter is benefiting from the high precision manufacturing capabilities of Precision Micro.
The Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) Composite Centre has worked with two specialist engineering companies to develop innovative biocomposite materials for high-performance vehicles.
Living materials could one day be used to design more complex devices such as solar cells, self-healing materials, or diagnostic sensors.
GE researchers are using a water-based fluid flowing through a series of magnets to transfer heat, rather than a chemical refrigerant and a compressor.
PEEK polymers, reinforced with high-strength carbon fibres for structural components or as prefabricated components, have long been used in aircraft construction.
