Biography:
Dr Adrian Murphy is a Senior Lecturer and Director of Research for the ‘Aerospace and Manufacturing’ research cluster at Queen’s University Belfast. He has published over one hundred journal and conference articles, including a significant number on design and analysis methods for aircraft structures. He has supervised and co-supervised eight PhD projects to completion and managed EU and industrially funded projects [AIRBUS, Bombardier Aerospace, Constellium (previously ALCAN)], developing significant experimental validation of his work. A winner of the Thomas Hawksley medal in 2006 and the Kenneth Harris James Prize (2006) and SAGE Best Paper Award 2012 (Journal of Materials: Design and Applications), he has a reputation for excellence in research with impact to industry. He sits on the Royal Aeronautical Society Structures and Materials Specialist committee, the NAFEMS Multi-Physics Working Group, the ESDU Aerospace Structures Committee, and the IMechE Aerospace Materials & Structures Technical Activity Committee. Adrian joined the staff of Queen's in 2002; he has a Masters degree in Aerospace Vehicle Design from Cranfield University and an Aeronautical Engineering Bachelors degree and PhD from Queen's University Belfast.
