Researchers from the Mechanical Engineering and Materials Research Centre (MEMARC) have undertaken a range of projects. Read about past projects and case studies here.
The Mechanical Engineering and Materials Research Centre (MEMARC) specialises in fracture and contact mechanics, wave propagation in lattices and microstructures, thermal fatigue and thermal striping, materials development and processing, as well as dynamics and control systems. You can find out more about these research areas and the projects MEMARC are working on here.
The Fracture and Contact Mechanics specialises in the development and use of finite element structural and multi-physics packages.
Exploring the impact of creative transpersonal psychology practices in person-centred coaching
The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the pace at which educational institutions moved towards a blended approach of online and in-person learning (Jisc, 2020). While embracing this change, the challenges it brings for learner experience, engagement and learning must be carefully considered.
Research suggests that autistic people are at a higher risk of suicide than non-autistic people. Figures show that up to 66% of autistic adults had thought about suicide during their lifetime (compared to 20% of non-autistic adults), and up to 35% had planned or attempted suicide.
These LJMU researchers collectively advance understanding of human cognition, brain function, and behaviour across domains including memory, perception, motivation, language, decision making, and clinical neuroscience.
These LJMU researchers collectively span psychology, neuroscience, and social behaviour.
The latest national assessment of research excellence (the REF2021) confirmed the high quality of research carried out under the roof of our research centre.
