项目摘要

This proposal is to establish a suite of small items of research equipment at Brunel University in the area of metals manufacturing. The metals manufacturing sector is one of the most important UK manufacturing sectors and is worth an estimated £17 billion per year to the country's economy. The project is proposed by six early career lecturers, from two departments, five of whom are within the first three years of their appointment. It is aimed at significantly enhancing the breadth and depth of research output and the delivery of impact through establishing a comprehensive suite of research equipment, to (i) produce next generation of highly skilled researchers; (ii) develop interdisciplinary and industrial collaboration and delivery of impact; and (iii) enhance Brunel's research profile on the international stage.With great ambition and to further advance the research and development in this area of research work at Brunel, the University has recently invested £2.5 million on large scale state-of-the-art facilities. These include high pressure die casting, transmission electron microscopy, induction furnaces), optical emission spectroscopy, and various advanced characterisation tools. This investment has provided a core infrastructural platform for growth in metallurgical and associated engineering and physical sciences research at Brunel. The proposed small items of research equipment complement the university's investment and further enhance the research capabilities. The new equipment suite is primarily aimed at supporting the research activities of early career researchers (ECRs) such as newly appointed lecturers, postdoctoral research assistants, and PhD and MSc students. Two departments within the university have identified areas of synergy necessary for metals manufacturing which falls within the EPSRC's manufacturing the future theme and 5 new critical research areas identified. This investment from EPSRC will benefit the ECRs by establishing their own independent research programs, improve the depth of their research output, and enhanced employability.In addition to purchasing new off-the shelf equipment we will add value to the requested funds by: assembling in-house instrumentation; modernising used equipment procured from industry to suit lab scale experiments; make purchases based on flexible and modular systems that could be upgraded or enhanced as new research programmes come online; and leverage access Brunel University's Research Development Fund which offers research pump priming for lecturers in their first 3 years of appointment. The new equipment will promote broader collaboration between departments at Brunel by allowing property measurements to be made that bridge the gap between materials development and final application in engineering. There will be provision made for wider access to this equipment for all ECRs from all departments at Brunel and other national universities.

该建议是在布鲁内尔大学金属制造领域建立一套小型研究设备。金属制造业是英国最重要的制造业之一，每年为英国经济贡献约170亿英镑。该项目是由来自两个部门的六名早期职业讲师提出的，其中五人在任命的头三年内。其目的是通过建立一套全面的研究设备，大大提高研究成果的广度和深度，并产生影响，以㈠培养下一代高技能的研究人员; ㈡发展跨学科和工业合作，并产生影响;以及（iii）提升布鲁内尔大学在国际舞台上的研究形象。布鲁内尔大学怀着远大的抱负，进一步推进这一研究工作领域的研究和发展，该大学最近投资了250万英镑的大型国家的最先进的设施。这些技术包括高压压铸、透射电子显微镜、感应炉、光学发射光谱和各种先进的表征工具。这项投资为Brunel的冶金和相关工程和物理科学研究提供了核心基础设施平台。拟议的小型研究设备项目补充了大学的投资，并进一步提高了研究能力。新设备套件主要旨在支持早期职业研究人员（ECR）的研究活动，例如新任命的讲师、博士后研究助理以及博士和硕士学生。大学内的两个部门已经确定了金属制造所需的协同作用领域，这福尔斯属于EPSRC的制造未来主题和5个新的关键研究领域。EPSRC的这项投资将通过建立自己的独立研究计划，提高研究成果的深度和增强就业能力，使ECR受益。除了购买新的现成设备外，我们还将通过以下方式增加所需资金的价值：组装内部仪器;对从工业中采购的旧设备进行现代化改造，以适应实验室规模的实验;购买基于灵活和模块化的系统，可以升级或增强新的研究项目上线;并利用访问布鲁内尔大学的研究发展基金，为讲师在其任命的前3年提供研究泵启动。新设备将促进布鲁内尔大学各部门之间更广泛的合作，允许进行性能测量，弥合材料开发和最终工程应用之间的差距。将为布鲁内尔大学和其他国立大学所有系的所有ECR提供更广泛的使用这种设备的机会。
