Dr Kevin Hughes
Senior Lecturer in Structural Integrity

  • Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering

Teaching

Prior to moving to Ã÷ÐÇ°ËØÔ, Kevin has been involved with post-graduate and CPD training since 2005 and is based around the application of non-linear numerical simulation methods and optimisation approaches to understand the response of structures and materials to dynamic loading, covering:

  • Structural Mechanics / Stress Analysis
  • Simulation for Impact and Crashworthiness (explicit FEA)
  • Design of Automotive Integral Vehicle Structures
  • Material Characterisation for Simulation
  • Applied Finite Element Modelling (Static and Dynamic)
  • Thin-Walled Structures

Kevin leads strategic development of the off-campus MSc programmes delivered through NSIRC (National Structural Integrity Research Centre), located at Granta Park (near Cambridge) and is programme director:

  • Structural Integrity (Asset Reliability Management)  MSc and MScR programmes
  • Lightweight Structures and Impact Engineering:  MSc and MScR programmes

Kevin also coordinates and delivers credit bearing engineering CPD courses to industry (see link opposite), providinga flexible route towards post-graduate qualifications (PgCert, PgDip, MSc and MSc by Research).
