Case Studies

Reducing the risk in vessel turn-arounds for ports

Researchers based at the STFC Hartree Centre worked with worked with Peel Ports Group to reduce uncertainty in available draft on vessels arriving and departing in ports using AI.

Improving personal care products with advanced simulation

We’re working with Unilever, using advanced in-silico modelling capabilities to drive understanding into antimicrobial peptide interactions for future product development.

Improving packing line efficiency

Researchers based at the STFC Hartree Centre are working with Unilever to optimise their packing line operations using the power of data.

Getting the picture of emulsion flows

Along with Unilever, we are employing computational modelling to study detailed dynamics of emulsions to optimise innovative manufacturing processes.

Cyber security in connected autonomous vehicles

As part of an Innovate UK funded project, we worked with Chilton Computing, Huduma and Oxfordshire County Council as part of a consortium focusing on cyber security in connected autonomous vehicles.

Cognitive chemical manufacturing

We worked with AstraZeneca to optimise their chemical manufacturing processes, saving time and costs in large scale product production and manufacturing.

Computational formulation for polymers

We worked with Johnson Matthey, using computational techniques to automate and accelerate the process of identifying properties of novel chemical formulations.

Simulation and machine learning for future medicine

We worked with AstraZeneca to accelerate lead optimisation by providing insights on a new class of drugs with the potential to reduce costs and increase productivity.

Developing visualisation and AI tools for engineering production

Researchers based at the STFC Hartree Centre and the Virtual Engineering Centre, University of Liverpool are working with Airbus in the UK to apply state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) and data visualisation to their production process.
