Deborah Greaves height - How tall is Deborah Greaves?

Greaves is the chair of the board of the Partnership for Research In Marine Renewable Energy (PRIMaRE) and Directs the Supergen ORE Hub. She serves on the Carbon Trust Advisory Board She is a Fellow of the Women's Engineering Society and the Institution of Civil Engineers as well as serving as an expert advisor for the United Nations. She was shortlisted for the WISE Campaign Research Award in 2014. In 2018 Greaves was awarded an Order of the British Empire in the Queen's Birthday Honours in recognition of her services to marine engineering, equality and higher education.

In 2008 Greaves moved to the University of Plymouth. Greaves studies offshore renewable energy as well as creating numerical models of wave-structure interactions. At the University of Plymouth she serves as Head of School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics. Here she led the €2 million European Commission project Streamlining of Ocean Wave Farm Impacts Assessment (SOWFIA), which looked at the development of wave farms in European countries. SOWFIA considered several Wave Energy Converters in an attempt to improve expertise of large scale energy projects. An outcome of SOWFIA was a catalogue of wave energy test sites, as well as several workshops and reports on the environmental risks and benefits associated with the use of wave energy. She leads the Collaborative Computational Project in Wave Structure Interaction (CCP-WSI), a project which develops wave tank codes for tackling challenges that arise from complex wave-structure interactions.

After earning her doctoral degree Greaves joined University College London as a lecturer in mechanical engineering. In 2002 Greaves joined the University of Bath as a lecturer in architecture and civil engineering. She was awarded a Royal Society University Research Fellowship. Here she investigated the impact of wind on fabric in an effort to design new materials to cover large open spaces.

Greaves studied civil engineering at the University of Bristol. She earned her bachelor's degree in 1988 and started work as a civil engineer. In 1992 Greaves returned to academia, and moved to St Edmund Hall at the University of Oxford for her doctoral studies. Her doctoral research considered the numerical modelling of fluid flows, and she graduated in 1998.
