‘Formal methods approach for analysis and prediction in Transport Systems’

Formal verification uses mathematical techniques to ensure that systems meet specified requirements. It plays a key role in verifying the correctness of complex hardware, software, and embedded systems, especially in safety-critical domains. My research focuses on applying formal methods and logic to model, validate, and analyse real-world systems. I am currently working on the TransiT Project, a UK research hub for digital twinning in transport decarbonisation. My work explores formal modelling techniques to capture and analyse transport systems, aiming to support the development of sustainable and efficient mobility solutions.

‘Energy Regenerative Suspension to Enhance Vehicle Efficiency: Opportunities and Challenges’

My research focuses on energy-regenerative suspension systems that harvest waste energy from vehicle vibrations to improve energy efficiency. These systems not only generate electricity but can potentially support sensor-powered condition monitoring, offering benefits for vehicle maintenance. I’m keen to collaborate with systems engineers (for control systems), as well as experts in structural dynamics, energy systems, and the automotive and railway industries. I also welcome engagement from those involved in smart maintenance. Current plans are to develop an experimental model to explore trade-offs between energy recovery, ride comfort, and dynamic stability of vehicles equipped with regenerative suspension.

‘Planning Expansion of Renewable Energy Infrastructure under Climate Change and Heightened Significance of Weather’

This presentation will highlight some of the research I recently presented during a Spotlight session at the All-Energy Exhibition & Conference in Glasgow. The work integrates the latest network risk assessment with climate data. Based on current results, we aim to expand it into a full-scale programme that further integrates power grid simulation, energy justice, and financial analysis to support UK's Net Zero transition.
