Pascual was awarded his MPhil in biomechanics from Brunel University in 1998. During this time, Pascual taught biomechanics in the Universities of Exeter, Brunel and South Bank, and joined Edge Hill University in September 1998. He obtained his PhD in biomechanics from Liverpool John Moores University in 2005. Drawing upon a wide-ranging academic background, Pascual is committed to enhance the students’s learning experience. Pascual is a qualified mountain leader and enjoys mountaineering, skiing and climbing. He is particularly interested in navigation, aerodynamics and aeronautics. Pascual’s research focuses on the mathematical modelling of aerodynamics and physics. Research projects are assisted by avant-garde technology including computer aided design (CAD), aerodynamics software and MATLAB, using a multi-disciplinary approach. The most recent projects encompass the simulation of atmosphere physical properties and their influence upon cycling performance, optimization of aerodynamic stability in ski jumping and wing design for sports cars.
