• TSB funded projects looking at battery life cycle from cradle to grave.

Jan 2008 – May 2012 · 4 yrs 4 mos

• Co-creator of Limo Green, application for funding through technical leadership of project to project completion.
• TSB project High Efficiency Transmission technical lead for JLR.
• Technical lead on Ultra Lightweight Range Extender project (gas turbine).
• LCVTP
• C-X75 co-creator of driveline, modeling of drive system to give performance and emissions numbers. Wrote technical presentation material. Technical lead at pre-show journalist preview and at Los Angeles car show Nov 2010.
• Wrote and correlated a high level vehicle energy and performance model that has been used throughout development of Limo Green and for sizing of C-X75.

Nov 2002 – Jan 2008 · 5 yrs 2 mos

• Specialist in Noise and Vibration for 16 years before moving into the area of low carbon vehicles.
• Established the Advanced NVH Research group as a function under JLR research. Lead this team for 6 years in the development of components, processes, measurement techniques and modelling methods.
• Developed Time Domain route tracking measurement and signal processing techniques that ended up being implemented in INCA2. These techniques are used in the engineering development of components to achieve whole vehicle sound quality targets and have been applied to all of the JLR products since 2008.
