Biography

Andrew received his PhD from the University of Glasgow in 2014, on Nitinol cymbal transducers for tuneable ultrasonic devices. He then undertook postdoctoral research into new ultrasonic exploration technology for high pressure and temperature environments and investigated the influence of ultrasonics on different sub-sea geological materials. In 2016, he joined the Department of Physics, University of Warwick, where he was Research Fellow in the Centre for Industrial Ultrasonics (CIU) until 2020. His research during this period focused on new high frequency flexural ultrasonic transducers for operation in a range of liquid and gas measurement environments towards 200 bar and 500°C (HiFFUT). He is a Chartered Engineer and member of both the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the IEEE.

Research interests

Summary

Andrew’s research is focused on the integration of smart materials, particularly those exhibiting shape memory, into ultrasonic devices and electro-mechanical systems for a range of medical and industrial applications. He is a member of the Centre for Medical and Industrial Ultrasonics (C-MIU) and the Materials & Manufacturing Research Group (MMRG).

Key Interests

  • Advanced materials, particularly those exhibiting shape memory
  • Biomimetic ultrasonics
  • Miniaturisation of power ultrasonic devices
  • Multifunctional and tuneable ultrasonic devices
  • Ultrasonic devices for hostile environments, including elevated pressures and temperatures
