@EPSRC If you are interested in this story - you can see a video we produced on #HexMat - to share how 'blue skies' R&D can interface with industry, to motivate our studies and provide tangible gains for society. Website: https://t.co/zWGxqju2c5 https://t.co/v8XOgwMY5o

The #HexMat programme was £5m sponsored by @EPSRC and we have contributed towards saving of (probably) ~£100m per year for aerospace sectors, and we are working with US firms now too to help this become industry wide knowledge.

In #HexMat we started at the nm lengthscale - using tests conducted inside and outside of an electron microscope - to build up a picture of materials performance. We passed that information into the computer & build a virtual material system. We used this model to emulate service

@ExpMicroMech One major aspect of our recent work was contributing to @EPSRC funded programme #HexMat - where we worked to understand "cold dwell fatigue" of the titanium disks.

Today, I hacked together some MTEX code (thanks @BMatB for the workshop!), got filmed for #HexMat and sat for over 2 hours coding via Skype. I seem to recall stating at the beginning of my PhD that I was definitely not going to code anymore. That worked out well!
