Pay it Forward for PCST 2025 - if you can afford it please take the opportunity to support our bursary programme.  All the funds raised through the pay it forward campaign will go towards supporting attendance at the 2025 conference in Aberdeen by funding bursaries for registration and travel for those who otherwise would not be able to attend.

This builds on the original idea introduced for the 2020+1 conference, which was continued for the 2023 iteration in Rotterdam.

Thank you for your generosity!

On-Demand Online CPD course

Biological Wastewater Treatment and Anaerobic Digestion: Theory, Design and Practice

The University of Aberdeen is delighted to offer this IChemE Approved online CPD Course which is aimed at professionals and PhD students working in the areas of biological wastewater treatment and anaerobic digestion.

This advanced course describes how to optimise and design biological wastewater treatment and anaerobic digestion processes in order to maximise treatment efficiency while minimising the capital and operating costs.

Please note:

Participants will have up to 6 months unlimited access from registering to study all the course lectures and materials on our custom-built study platform, designed for ease of use and communication. A CPD certification will be awarded in completion of the course. 

Please allow 10 working days for your guest account to be activated (during busy period this may take longer)   

Full course information can be found on our website.

Dunnottar Castle, Stonehaven and Glen Garioch Whisky Tour

IMPORTANT- Part of the 10th International Symposium of Environmental Hydraulics 2024 and for conference delegates only. You will have to register a new account in order to book, as this is a separate registration system than the main conference. 

PLEASE NOTE - The Castle is reached by walking approx. 300m along an earth path to the headland, there are then over 200 concrete steps from the cliff top to the entrance kiosk which is located within the Castle.

Unfortunately the positioning of the Castle means that wheelchair access is not possible. Read the access guide here. 

Measuring Behavior is the stage for the latest inventions, prototypes, and techniques in behavioral research. It is the premier event for scientists and practitioners involved in behavioral research, and focusses on methods, techniques, and tools in human and animal behavioral research.

Measuring Behavior is the premier interdisciplinary event for scientists and practitioners concerned with the study of human or animal behavior. This unique conference focuses on methods, techniques, and tools in behavioral research in the widest sense. While most conferences focus on a specific scientific area, this conference tries to create bridges between disciplines by bringing together people who may otherwise be unlikely to meet each other.

The University of Aberdeen are delighted to be hosting the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) 2024 Symposium. This year the focus is on Frontiers of Solid Mechanics for Energy Transition. 

The symposium will take place from the 1st to 4th of July 2024 in Aberdeen, Scotland. The University of Aberdeen is the backdrop of the conference, with many locations on the campus being used. Finer details will be released nearer the time.

This symposium aims to provide opportunity for researchers to share knowledge on the wide-ranging contribution of mechanics to addressing some of these challenges. The symposium will cover, but not limited to, the following topics on the mechanics, materials and technology in relation to hydrogen storage and transportation, and life-extension, design optimisation and decommissioning of wind turbines:

1. Hydrogen storage and distribution: pressure vessel storage, underground storage, cryogenic liquid; solid state storage, etc.
2. Damage tolerance – wind turbine and hydrogen infrastructure.
3. Condition monitoring, e.g. physics informed machine learning, stochastic/statistical approach, digital twin, etc. (for both wind turbine and hydrogen infrastructure).
4. Hydrogen fuel cell technologies for automobiles.
5. Hydrogen technologies for aviation and ships.
6. Repurposing of oil and gas infrastructure for hydrogen transport and storage.
7. Decommissioning of wind turbines.
