* forensic biomechanics & engineering,
* the dynamic response of skin, bone, neural tissue,
* micro-injection moulding of polymers, and
* deformation and fracture of fibre reinforced polymer matrix composites.

Intellectual property from his research has been licensed to eight separate research groups in Ireland, UK, Belgium, US, Canada and Singapore.

Research Interests

* Head impact biomechanics and neurotrauma
* Forensic biomechanics and accident investigation
* Mechanical behaviour and fracture of biological tissue including skin, bone and neural tissue
* Design of personal protective equipment and safety helmets
