Additional information

The first model of water flow through porous structures quantitatively exploring the impact of climate change on masonry. Described by one reviewer as ‘an excellent paper, providing an elegant treatment of an important problem’. Reported in SCIENCEnow (11/08/10), EARTH magazine (November 2010) and the Edinburgh Evening News (Helping landmarks weather the years, 3/02/11). It formed the basis of one AHRC-EPSRC studentship (Univ. Edinburgh) and the new EPSRC DISTINCTIVE consortium (EP/L014041/1 – Strathclyde) with National Nuclear Laboratory (mike.angus@nnl.co.uk), Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (darrell.morris@nda.gov.uk) and Sellafield Ltd (debbie.m.keighley@sellafieldsites.com), which is developing technologies to monitor and restore ageing structures on nuclear decommissioning sites.
