Lane Lecture 2024: Delivering Occupational Health Research in Government: an important front line service?

12:00 - 02 October 2024

HSE has a proud history of undertaking occupational health research, either by funding others or using its in house capability. In this lecture Professor Andrew Curran CBE will review over 100 years of occupational health research by Government and consider if this capability should be considered as an important front-line service. In person...

Training Course on In situ experiments and Digital Volume Correlation

14 - 15 October 2024

Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...

Dirac's Dream: The Quest for the Magnetic Monopole

15:00 - 18:00 17 October 2024

The elusive magnetic monopole is arguably the most important particle that has yet to be discovered. We shall follow the search for the monopole from its Victorian beginnings until today and discuss how we can continue into the future. We shall see that this quest describes a golden thread that runs through fundamental physics from its classical...

Training Course on Advanced Scripting and Batching of Tomographic Datasets

13 - 14 November 2024

Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
