An international research team including the School’s Emeritus Professor, Alistair Borthwick, has developed a new model to improve predictions of future rainfall and climate change in Asia.
Self-charging smartwatches and health trackers could be a step closer following the development of tiny mechanical devices powered by movement, a study suggests.
This research theme focusses on the research and development of both onshore and offshore wind energy. Our wind energy research covers topics such as powertrain and generator design and modelling, grid integration, aerodynamics and hydrodynamic modelling and testing of floating turbines, blade design and analysis, power-to-X methodologies, condition and structural health monitoring of turbines and life cycle assessments of wind energy.
A team of engineering researchers led by Dr Aristides Kiprakis have conducted a study that challenges the rules which currently govern the layout of tidal turbines.
The Institute for Energy Systems at the University of Edinburgh invites applications for a PhD studentship for the project “Integrating Decentralised Energy Trading Platforms into Power System Plan
