My research interests include product lifecycle management, systems engineering and advanced manufacturing, all centred around the concept of lifecycle engineering. This requires taking a holistic view of a product, process or system, and our work aims to support designers and engineers in doing so. Some of my current projects and collaborations are presented below (details coming soon).
