In collaboration with Verder Scientific, this course explores milling, particle characterisation, tube furnaces and hardness testing techniques involved in the fabrication of advanced materials. The content will cover the application of these processes across Royce’s research areas in advanced metals processing, biomedical materials, chemical materials design, and nuclear materials.
It will introduce standard approaches, enable the sharing of current best practice, and give insights into how these techniques are used in Royce by our researchers, technology platform leads, and students. Participants will also learn from scientists and engineers at Verder Scientific on how they have approached these challenges and optimised equipment for use in multiple sectors of materials science, from aerospace, to nuclear, to biomedical materials. The content will also provide guidance on why these processes are used, the considerations when preparing samples and planning experiments, and raise thoughts on the time and economic benefits of these techniques.
Format: In-person
Cost: 1 day £25, 2 days £40
