Seminar series spotlighting intersectional voices in Chemistry
The MIB EDI Committee at The University of Manchester invites staff and students, including Manchester Metropolitan University, to join us for the launch of our new seminar series, Bonds That Matter: Intersectional Voices in Chemistry, supported by the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Inclusion and Diversity Fund. This series celebrates early-career...
Impact Bites: Knowledge Exchange session
The FSE Impact Team are starting a new event series to give academics short introductions to different aspects of research impact pathways and impact, using examples from around the faculty. Delivered over lunchtime, these 30min sessions will give you new approaches, ideas, and perspectives on research impact to think about when carrying out your...
Training course on visualisation and quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day in person training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray...
Training course on in situ experiments and digital volume correlation
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...
Training course on advanced scripting and batching of tomographic datasets
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...
