Lithium-ion Batteries
Hawkins’ forensic expert and Singapore Regional Director, Dr David Rose will be presenting an online educational seminar discussing risks associated with Lithium-ion batteries from a forensic investigation perspective, including a number of case studies.
Systemic Failure in the UK Solar Fleet
Ben will look at three common types of failure in electrical equipment at UK solar power installations, and discuss whether the differences between ‘old’ and ‘new’ power systems and practices might have a contributory role.
Testing Times – Challenges Associated with Testing Power Plant Systems
Nick will discuss the challenges associated with testing and maintaining the integrity of power plant protective and back-up systems.
Power Investigation Challenges: Techniques & Evidence That We Collect
Nick showcases some techniques that we can use to investigate an incident and the evidence that we can collect to support in recovery or litigation. He will also cover some of the challenges faced when investigating.
Gas Turbines & Hydrogen Through the Energy Transition
As power generation shifts to renewable energy and sustainable fuels, gas turbine engines will continue to play a crucial role in maintaining energy demand. Simon discusses the challenges and mitigations of running gas turbines through the energy transition.
Wind Turbines: Risks & Failures
With increased demand for clean renewable energy wind turbines are growing in numbers, size and capacity. In this webinar, Amir will look at failures associated with wind turbines.
Noise & Vibration: What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
Ros addresses the many issues that can arise through not considering acoustics, noise and vibration. This covers building failures, nuisance and personal injuries, including specific examples of what issues can arise and how expensive or problematic they can be to resolve.
Bristol Series – Finding Evidence of Fraud & Deliberate Fire Setting
Russell will cover the identification of physical evidence that identifies fires as being started deliberately, alongside evidence that identifies where fires and other peril claims are potentially fraudulent.
Bristol Series – Corrosion in the Power Industry
Giuseppe will focus on two widespread corrosion mechanisms that routinely lead to large BI claims in the power industry: Corrosion Under Insulation, and Microbiologically Induced Corrosion. He will discuss what causes these degradation mechanisms, as well as how to recognise and prevent them.
Bristol Series – Investigating Fires Involving Biomass Boilers
Camilla discusses what biomass boilers are, how they work, and how they can cause fires.
