Stirling’s roots are firmly based in leading

innovative research activities and delivering

unique and advanced solutions. Our original

research activity for DERA and the UK MoD has

provided many of the fledgling technologies that

we have integrated into global aerospace and

defence platforms as mature, proven capabilities

– active controllers for fly-by-wire aircraft, and

advanced autopilots and hover control for next

generation nuclear and diesel submarines.

Many of our technology demonstrator

programmes have resulted in industry firsts.

Stirling’s energy systems engineers provide advanced

simulation and analysis for extreme environments.

Our expansion into energy systems has already led to

the successfully development and deployment of

prototype systems into two industry sectors.

LED system

• Control software and hardware

• Prototype 2013, full scale demo 2014

• Full ILS solution

Condition monitoring system AWEAR©

• Tracks and alarms for preventative maintenance

• Demonstrator 2013, roll-out 2014

Condition monitoring system for waste infrastructure

improving performance and productivity

Predicts failure of machines within mechanical plant

• COTS hardware

• Advanced wear modelling capability is key differentiator

Management of maintenance technicians and inventory

• Tracks and alarms for preventative maintenance

• Manages activity of maintenance staff

• Funded by Stirling, Innovate UK

• EngD running sponsored by Engineering and Physical

Sciences Research Council

• AWEAR HMI touch screen insitu

Waste water to energy process using algae. Stirling has

brought I-Phyc’s innovative concept into reality:

• Phase 1 demonstrator completed end 2013, funded by

Innovate UK & Stirling

• Phase 2 demonstrator to complete April 2015 in £1.1m

project funded by DECC, WoE LEP, Stirling and

Wessex Water/Geneco

Stirling has provided:

• Advanced real-time control system

• Adapted our AWEAR condition monitoring system for

I-Phyc process

• Full systems integration and supplier management

• Supported additional funding calls

• Get well networked so you know potential partners and funding streams

• Use it to develop a produce or service you planned to do anyway

• Lead it yourself and be caution around outsourcing partners

• Must have strong business case, don’t take it on just to keep people busy

• Regular market and technical reviews to ensure you retain commercial focus

• Review regularly and be prepared to stop project if research isn’t

commercially viable

• If partnering with a University be sure they have a track record of supporting

projects with a commercial focus – can move at your pace

• It simply will not go as planned, lots of challenges along the way

• Spend all the money allocated!!!
