Biography

In August 2014, I took a role as an Assistant Professor with the PEMC group of the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. My work is mainly focused on linear machines for actuation, transportation and high speed launch.I am also a co-investigator on the EPSRC Underpinning Power Engineering Drives theme.

Previously, I spent several years working in Research and Development for Force Engineering, a UK based SME. Work in this role was split between internal product research and development projects for clients. Significant work included undertaking a demanding development project on advanced unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) launch motors which led to the design, production and successful testing of improved launch motors in a full scale UAV launch track. This body of work also led to my involvement in further studies of full scale aircraft launch motor systems for aircraft carrier scale deployment. I also worked on a variety of design and development projects for amusement rides and brakes, commercial baggage handling systems and linear generators.
