Find your engagement path
Each audience has a recommended starting point on this site and a contact route matched to the work.
Engineering & industry
Aero-engine OEMs, consultancies, test facilities, and capital-constrained hardware teams needing experimental depth, CFD validation, or technical review.
- Projects: case studies and campaign logs
- Turbomachinery deterioration: flagship industrial research thread
- Instrumentation: probe and uncertainty methods
Education & EdTech
Premium tutoring agencies, education consultancies, and STEM creators seeking conversion-focused web architecture, LaTeX/MathJax rendering, and booking automation.
- Website & SEO conversion audits for educators
- Custom mathematical & scientific publishing engines
- Enquiry-to-booking portal systems
Researchers & institutions
University groups, national labs, and co-authors on aerothermal experimentation, turbomachinery performance, or open-hardware instrumentation.
- Publications: papers and manuscripts in preparation
- ORCID profile
- Technical notes: derivations and methods
Venture & field partners
Operators, investors, and technical partners in applied aerodynamics, renewable-energy field validation, or instructional systems at scale.
- KiteGeneration initiative: operational context
- Projects: mesoscale wind and systems work
- Venture leadership: credentials on About
Conference & speaking
Seminars, panels, faculty workshops, and technical commentary.
Educational partners
Advisors, international schools, and parents seeking structured STEM mentorship.
Professional programs
Scoped engagements with strong repeat demand, each backed by published work on this site. Fees and scope are agreed offline; scheduling uses invitation-only booking after alignment (ADR-009).
Corporate aerothermal workshops
Half-day or multi-session programmes on measurement practice, CFD-experiment validation, or turbomachinery aerothermal topics, built from methods articles and research themes.
Technical review sessions
Focused 90-minute reviews of CFD setups, instrumentation plans, or experimental uncertainty budgets, ideal before a major campaign or design gate.
Education-sector technical advisory
Website conversion audits, custom LaTeX/MathJax systems, and automated intake/booking workflows for premium education consultancies and tutors.
Instrumentation advisory
Probe calibration strategy, multi-facility transfer, and uncertainty propagation, grounded in the instrumentation theme and probe uncertainty note.
Keynotes & faculty seminars
Conference keynotes, department seminars, and panel commentary on aerothermal R&D, venture validation, or STEM education.
Research collaboration blocks
Co-supervision, joint proposals, and multi-facility benchmarking, see publications and projects for evidence base.
What collaboration can cover
Representative scopes grounded in documented work, ECAT HPT campaigns (Rolls-Royce sponsored), multi-facility 5-hole probe benchmarking, the 2024 AM heat-exchanger publication, KiteGeneration field validation, and digital educational architectures. Each engagement is defined explicitly before work begins.
Aerothermal & technical advisory
- ECAT-style aerothermal campaign design, thermography + pneumatic surveys, uncertainty budgets per probe note
- RANS validation review for deteriorated HPT hardware, observables locked to HPT project log
- Turbomachinery aerothermal performance assessment (Rolls-Royce-sponsored programme context)
- DMLS heat-exchanger feasibility, low-order models + 2024 paper workflow
Education technology & systems
- Conversion and SEO audits for premium tutors and education consultancies
- Mathematical publishing engines (LaTeX, MathJax, SVG diagrams) with zero layout shift
- Automated booking, student portal, and intake qualification workflows
- Topical authority content architecture for international STEM education
How engagements work
- Review public work: use Engineering, projects, and publications to confirm fit
- Write with context: problem definition, scope boundaries, timeline, sponsorship or confidentiality constraints
- Scoped conversation: align on deliverables, capacity, and institutional requirements (e.g. Oxford/RRS sponsorship boundaries where relevant)
- Formal agreement: consulting contract, research MoU, or venture term sheet as appropriate
