There is a great deal of interest in the nature of QCD, the strong interaction force of particle physics. It has a fascinating personality - in all but the most exotic situations, it confines quarks
-
computational recourses for limited duration yet highly accurate particle-in-cell (PIC) modelling. Kingston University has developed a simulation model, dubbed PERSEUS, that narrows the gap between these two

within fusion reactors, especially plasma-facing materials (PFMs) exposed to intense heat fluxes and energetic particles. Understanding and predicting how these materials degrade under such conditions is

/ slot die coating. The screen-printing process is scientifically complex; a non-Newtonian multi-phase elastic material (containing conducting/semi-conducting particles, organic binder and solvent) is

composites that can have highest actuations under both electric and magnetic fields. In this case, after synthesising polymer composites (e.g., natural rubbers filled with various conductive particles

dispersion - and develop a system to disperse the particles. The project will explore the options for dispersion and the options for nozzle design and whether substantial additional air supply is needed

to create a steady flow of 1000 Bar low voidage emulsion (particle voidage greater than 40%). Alternatives include a high-pressure pump or batch filling and depressurising into a buffer / separation vessel
