Funded PhD Project (European/UK Students Only)
About the Project
A collaborative research project, funded by leading industrial partners AMECFW and POSCO, is offering an exciting opportunity for a PhD Student to work on the development of an innovative sandwich panel flooring system for offshore topsides. The project involves direct collaboration between Imperial College London, AMECFW and POSCO.
The overall project has two main threads, to be undertaken collaboratively by two PhD students, namely: i) numerical modelling and optimisation for structural performance, and ii) experimental work and optimisation for production. This PhD studentship relates to the second thread, and the PhD student is expected to engage directly on product development with the POSCO team in South Korea, where the experimental work will be undertaken.
Interested applicants should have a first class degree in an engineering discipline with significant focus on structures, and should have a good command of the English language, including report writing skills. An MSc degree with Distinction and/or experience in product development would also be desirable.
Please send a competed application form along with a current CV and the names of two referees to Professor Bassam Izzuddin, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Skempton Building, Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, London, SW7 2AZ, email: [Email Address Removed] from whom further particulars may be obtained.
Funding Notes
The PhD Student will work under the joint supervision of Professor Bassam Izzuddin, Dr Lorenzo Macorini and industrial supervisors nominated by AMECFW and POSCO. Funding will cover tuition fees at Home/EU level and a bursary of £20K per annum for 3 ½ years. There is also the potential requirement for travel to South Korea, which would be covered by the project.
