Dr Garth Morgan Kendall Pearce

I am a Senior Lecturer with the School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. I specialise in:

• Aerospace Structures
• Advanced Aerospace Materials
• Structural modelling and simulation

An overview of our research group can be found here. My specific research interests include:

• Onset Theory, Strain Invariant Failure Theory (ARC Linkage Project)

• Automated Manufacture of Advanced Composites (ARC Training Centre for Automated Manufacture of Advanced Composites)

• Composite pressure vessel design (Type III, IV and V) for cryogenic applications
• Modelling and testing composite structures under dynamic loading conditions
• Damage prediction and characterisation for laminated composite materials
• Crashworthiness
• Stochastic simulation methodology for sensitive or chaotic structural mechanics
• Load path theory
