معرفی
Barrie Dams is a Researcher at the University of Bath's Department of Mechanical Engineering, affiliated with the Centre for Integrated Materials, Processes & Structures (IMPS). His work focuses on sustainable construction materials and heritage conservation. He holds a PhD in Aerial Additive Manufacturing and an MEng in Civil Engineering from the University of Bath.
Education:
- PhD in Civil Engineering, University of Bath (2016–2019)
- MEng (Hons) Civil Engineering, University of Bath (2011–2016)
Research Interests: Bio-based construction materials, additive manufacturing with drones, fibrous plaster conservation, and circular economy principles. His projects include the People-Led Net Zero initiative (UKRI-funded) and the Leverhulme Trust project on historic fibrous plaster ceilings.
Recent Research Trends: Barrie’s work emphasizes sustainable building materials, lifecycle assessment of bio-based systems, and heritage material preservation. His articles explore thermal performance of bio-walls, failure mechanisms in historic ceilings, and drone-based 3D printing materials.
Grants & Collaborations: Involved in EPSRC-funded aerial additive manufacturing and Interreg Circular Bio-based Construction projects. Collaborations include Historic England and fibrous plaster industry partners.
Labs/Teams: Part of the IMPS research group and the People-Led Net Zero project team.
