Project summaryRehabilitation services prove highly effective in managing numerous chronic conditions such as coronary artery disease, yet they remain underutilized among patients. Further, disparities in care are evident as the data indicates that women and individuals from socioeconomically deprived areas are notably less likely to attend rehabilitation,...

Application deadline: 31/07/2024 Research theme: Offshore renewable energy; water waves How to apply: Please click the 'Apply' button, above. The design of offshore renewable energy systems should consider realistic ocean extremes which can be complex and highly nonlinear. However, linear models are often used for design due to their low cost, resulting in...
