This course will provide an introduction to energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis for alloys at the Royce Hub Building in Manchester.
The content will introduce the concepts for the generation of X-rays for alloy analysis and EDS techniques on bulk samples. Participants will cover experimental produres, quantification methods, sample preparation and analysis artefacts. The course aims to develop understanding and guidance for practical experimentation to ensure the collection of high-quality EDS data.

Join Royce at the University of Cambridge for this talk from Prof. Todd Hufnagel; Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD. In this talk, Prof. Hunagel will discuss The AI for Materials Design Laboratory (AIMD-L) at Johns Hopkins University's design and implementation, with particular emphasis on the unique laser microflyer impact and x-ray characterisation instruments, along with the data architecture and handling that provides the unifying backbone for lab operations and its integration with AI/ML models for materials exploration.
As part of the National Technical Platform for Materials Innovation (NTPMI), UK National Nuclear Laboratory (UKNNL) will lead a technical workshop on Electron Microscopy Characterisation of Active Nuclear Materials and deliver an introduction to the UK Nuclear Industry. The event will take place at the Royce Hub Building in Manchester, with the opportunity for participants to join remotely in a hybrid format.
This workshop will introduce quenching dilatometry for experimental work and data analysis in alloys. The content will explore the use of dilatometry to assess phase transformations in ferritic steels and other alloys, and the transformations seen during simulation of welding and additive manufacturing.
Royce is returning to the Manchester Museum to participate in two days of fun and educational outreach activities focusing on material sciences and engineering for British Science Week 2025. This year, the Royce Outreach team will explore materials under the microscope with with attendees through a range of hands-on activities.
This course focuses on extrusion-based bioprinting techniques relevant to healthcare research, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). Participants will explore the fundamentals of the technology and hear from experts on the opportunities and challenges of translating 3D bioprinting into real-life medical applications.
On the 17-20 March 2025, Cranfield University will be hosting a “Hydrogen Material Challenges” short course, supported by the Henry Royce Institute. This course will focus on providing delegates with both practical and experimental knowledge on the fundamental material challenges faced by all components in the hydrogen supply chain: production, storage and distribution, and use.
This course will introduce participants to the fundamentals of vacuum technologies and develop knowledge on essential concepts in thin film deposition techniques. It will provide a foundation in microfabrication methods, such as photolithography and ion milling, essential for advanced research and thin film device manufacturing.
This NTPMI workshop for Research Technical Professionals will consider the various challenges in handling data in materials science, such as: i) specification of metadata; ii) methods of compression or down-sampling; iii) data storage and retention practices; iv) sharing and tools for access. The idea is to gather perspectives on the above aspects to instigate discussions around working methods and best practices.
