ELEC6225 2026-27
High Voltage Insulation Systems
This module provides a systematic understanding of knowledge and critical awareness of issues related to the management and design of high voltage insulation systems. The course introduces a number of topics related to the design and testing of insulation systems and breakdown phenomena in insulation materials. The students will also be exposed to research activities undertaken within the Tony Davies High Voltage Laboratory. The lectures (seminars) are intended to support student self learning activities and it is expected that the students should make use of a wide range of information resources including current IEC standards and research papers. Two assessment activities are designed to provide scope for students to work as a team (bushing insulation design) and individually (partial discharge classification). A range of skills, including technical (electric field simulation and programming) and transferable skills (presentation) are required to complete the two assignments.
Students are not required to have taken ELEC3211 before taking ELEC6225, but it is strongly recommended. -

High, Popular, Mass Culture: Cultural Hybridity and Globalization in Latin America and Spain
This module examines high, popular and mass cultural forms in twentieth century Spain and Latin America. Attention is particularly paid to the political uses made of those different forms. The module explores the function of popular culture in predominantly rural societies where literacy is low, and the co-option of selective aspects of popular culture for high-cultural purposes. It discusses notions of mass reproduction and its cultural consequences for cultural form and audience response, including the appropriation of mass culture and as developed in Cultural Studies. Recent developments in the field of Cultural Studies will also include notions of globalisation and cultural hybridity. This module will explore how the processes by which certain texts are incorporated into the high-cultural canon, paying attention to texts which have been read both as popular culture and as high culture. Material studied includes theoretical writings on high, popular and mass culture, as well as notions of cultural hybridity and globalisation. Texts studied might include popular prints; photography; popular music; popular cinema; fiction; festivities. -

High-Level Programming
This module introduces the principles and practise of programming, with the assumption that students may not have any prior experience in programming. The teaching language is Python, as this is relatively accessible to new programmers, but also an important language for describing and coordinating computation in real-world problems. The module will introduce the key concepts of imperative and structured programming, and use examples of solving real-world problems with actual data inputs and outputs. By the end of the course, students should be competent programmers, and able to use programming as a tool to solve previously unseen problems. -

High-Temperature Structural Degradation and Finite Element Modelling
This Level 7 module provides advanced theoretical understanding and computational modelling skills to assess high-temperature structural degradation in aerospace, power generation, and automotive engineering. Students will learn the theory and underlying mathematical frameworks used to describe key mechanisms such as creep deformation, thermo-mechanical fracture and fatigue, oxidation, and hot corrosion, and will examine how these processes influence component integrity in demanding service environments. The analytical content is integrated with finite-element simulations in ABAQUS, enabling students to build, apply, and interpret computational models of high-temperature behaviour in real-life engineering components such as aeroengine turbine blades, rocket engine nozzles, and nuclear reactor structures. By the end of the module, students will be able to diagnose dominant high-temperature failure modes, apply appropriate constitutive and fracture models, and use simulation tools to support design and failure analysis in engineering. -

Highway and Traffic Engineering
This module combines the two main elements of Highway Engineering – geometric design and road pavement structural design. You will gain an understanding of key issues and practices in both elements, including design case studies where you will put theory in to practice. There is also significant coverage of highway maintenance – an aspect of increasing importance in developed countries with ageing infrastructure.
