Summary
Metastructures for Simultaneous Vibration Suppression and Energy Harvesting. The project aims to generate a fundamental understanding of the underlying multiphysics of dual-functional locally resonating metastructures, where undesirable vibrations are suppressed while absorbed energy is converted into electricity. It will widen low-frequency vibration suppression gaps and maximise energy capture by formulating an integrated modelling framework to leverage complex dynamics of nonlinear local reso ....Metastructures for Simultaneous Vibration Suppression and Energy Harvesting. The project aims to generate a fundamental understanding of the underlying multiphysics of dual-functional locally resonating metastructures, where undesirable vibrations are suppressed while absorbed energy is converted into electricity. It will widen low-frequency vibration suppression gaps and maximise energy capture by formulating an integrated modelling framework to leverage complex dynamics of nonlinear local resonators coupled with vibration energy harvesting mechanisms and nonlinear electrical circuitry. This will promote the development of next-generation multifunctional metastructures. Knowledge produced should improve the durability of structural components and empower sustainable wireless monitoring with self-powered sensors.Read moreRead less

Summary
3D Gamma Ray Tomography for Multiphase Flow Characterisation. We will establish a new tomographic facility which will allow a greater insight on the flows in industrial multiphase equipment which have opaque containers. The facility will provide a platform for Australian researchers to conduct fundamental research on complex flows, particularly those encountered in our mineral processing industry.
