Making thin Kevlar fibre tissue for reinforcement of carbon-fibre composites for aerospace applications Prerequisite skills: Understanding of engineering materials and mechanical design are preferred. Disciplines: Materials, Mechanical Carbon-fibre composites are brittle because both carbon fibres and epoxy are brittle materials. Very thin Kevlar fibres (ductile fibres) tissues can be inserted between carbon fibre layers, which will significantly enhance the impact resistance of the modified carbon fibre composites. The key is to make very thin Kevlar fibre tissues (as thin as possible). The project is mainly experimental. Hu, Xiaozhi, Professor Co-supervisor: Jiang, Bin PhD Adhesive bonding of metals and composites for aerospace applications Prerequisite skills: Understanding of engineering materials and mechanical design are preferred. Disciplines: Materials, Mechanical Carbon fibres are becoming increasingly popular for various industrial applications. Adhesive bonding of these composites with metals can be critical to the composite structures. We will test various methods to improve the adhesive bonding of composites and metals. The project is experimental. Huang, David, Professor Future generation broadband wireless communications Disciplines: Electrical & Electronic Prerequisite skills: Communication systems (ELEC3302/4402) This project is focused on promising technologies for future broadband wireless communications systems including: • Massive Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output (MIMO) Systems
