The University of Nottingham is home to one of the largest and most advanced programmes of transport research in the UK.
The activities in transport research at the University of Nottingham are conducted in a large number of academic schools, including Mechanical, Materials & Manufacturing Engineering, Psychology, Computer Science, Civil Engineering and Electrical and Electronic Engineering and encompass the sectors of automotive, rail, aerospace and maritime-based research.
These activities can be broadly collected into three overarching themes – transport engineering, transport human factors and psychology and behaviour.
Our specialisms include:
• Advanced materials research for engineering solutions in rail, road and aerospace sectors.
• Human factors research in ergonomics and safety, including accident causation and hazard perception work.
• Integrated transport systems including global positioning technology and transport civil infrastructure.
• Developments in electrical power and actuation systems for aerospace
