Additional information

New validated finite element formulation for predicting structural behaviour of composite materials in heritage ships is presented for the first time. This was used to inform the Cutty Sark Trust on how to best disassemble and reassembly this national maritime treasure which was opened by the Queen in 2012 (CEO, Cutty Sark trust, Richard Doughty, richard.doughty@cuttysark.org.uk). Greenwich work was awarded best Knowledge Transfer Partnership for London in 2008, and the Times Higher Education Award for Outstanding Research Team of the year (2009). Output led onto a further project to support restoration of Medway Queen (Wyn Davies, Naval Architect, wynbdavies@sky.com)
