The University of Strathclyde has established the Advanced Forming Research Centre (AFRC) to support world leading research in the cognate area of forming and forging. The Centre will work with leading edge industrial companies to support fundamental and applied research, effectively providing a capability pipeline which develops low maturity research concepts and technologies through to a level where they can be readily deployed in industry. The AFRC will address key manufacturing process challenges in the forming and forging field. These challenges include:- Materials utilisation for economic and environmental benefit- New materials with improved metallurgical properties- New product designs demanding ever more accurate and repeatable formed components- Mass customisation requiring adaptable and flexible processesResearch will be undertaken in a new purpose built facility (2500sqm) currently being contructed near Glasgow airport that will house state of the art equipment and dedicated support staff. The facility will accommodate up to 50 staff members. The Centre intends to be a cross sectoral collaborative partnership involving leading industrial companies and government research and knowledge exchange support agencies. To date four companies, Rolls-Royce, Boeing, Mettis Aerospace and Timet have concluded contracts as Tier 1 partners and will provide financial support for the core research programme over the next 5 years (value 4m). Additionally seven companies have committed to Tier 2 partnership committing support to the AFRC in cash and in kind. It is the intention to grow the partnership to at least 8 Tier 1 partners within 5 years. AFRC will commence full research operations on 1 August 2009 and will move to the new facility in May 2010. Financial support for the building and initial equipment procurement is being provided by Scottish Enterpise.This application is for a STAR Professorship appointment to lead the research activities of the Centre. The appointee will be a researcher of world leading research standing in the forming and forging field - essential to ensure that the AFRC rapidly establishes itself as a global centre of excellence in forming and forging research. As research director of the AFRC the appointee will be responsible for leading the core research programme (funded by industrial partners), securing a portfolio of funded research projects and building the global research reputation of the Centre. Rolls-Royce, as the initial founding partner of the AFRC will provide specific support for this position.

斯特拉斯克莱德大学建立了先进成形研究中心（AFRC），以支持成形和锻造相关领域的世界领先研究。该中心将与领先的工业公司合作，支持基础和应用研究，有效地提供一个能力管道，将低成熟度的研究概念和技术发展到可以随时在工业中部署的水平。AFRC将解决成形和锻造领域的关键制造工艺挑战。这些挑战包括：-材料利用的经济和环境效益-新材料具有改善的冶金性能-新产品设计要求更精确和可重复的成型部件-大规模定制需要适应性强和灵活的工艺研究将在一个新的专用设施（2500平方米）进行，目前正在格拉斯哥机场附近建造，将容纳最先进的设备和专门的支持人员。该设施最多可容纳50名工作人员。该中心打算成为一个跨部门的合作伙伴关系，涉及领先的工业公司和政府研究和知识交流支持机构。到目前为止，罗尔斯·罗伊斯、波音、梅蒂斯航空航天和Timet四家公司已经签订了一级合作伙伴合同，并将在未来5年内为核心研究计划提供财政支持（价值400万美元）。此外，七家公司已承诺建立二级伙伴关系，承诺以现金和实物支持武革委。我们打算在5年内将合作伙伴关系扩大到至少8个一级合作伙伴。武革委将于2009年8月1日开始全面研究工作，并将于2010年5月迁往新设施。该中心的建设和初期设备采购的财政支持由苏格兰企业提供。本申请是为了获得星星教授职位，以领导该中心的研究活动。被任命者将是成形和锻造领域世界领先研究的研究员，这对确保AFRC迅速成为成形和锻造研究的全球卓越中心至关重要。作为武革委的研究主任，被任命者将负责领导核心研究方案（由工业伙伴资助），确保获得资助的研究项目组合，并建立该中心的全球研究声誉。罗尔斯·罗伊斯公司作为武革委最初的创始伙伴，将为这一职位提供具体支持。
