Non-destructive inspection based on acoustics is today one of the primary methods for the identification of damage precursors in components and structures. Read more
Ph.D. Graduate Research Position in Fuel Cell and Turbine Hybrid System Modelling, Design and Development
The Department of Mechanical, Materials, and Aerospace Engineering (MMAE) at the West Virginia University anticipates filling Ph.D. Read more
Detecting gravity anomalies in asteroids: application to Hera's radio science
BACKGROUND. An accurate estimation of the density distribution of asteroids is of great interest for both planetary science and defense. Read more
Microfluidic-assisted particle manipulation in complex fluid environments for biomedical and engineering applications
We are delighted to offer two new PhD positions (one experimental and one numerical) on “particle manipulation in complex fluid environments for biomedical and engineering applications” at Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering - University of Strathclyde. Read more
Modelling slip bands and short crack growth in Ni-based superalloys using discrete crystal plasticity
In metal fatigue, microplastic strain localisation leads to the formation of discrete slip bands, which contribute to the initiation and propagation of short cracks. Read more
Three-dimensional hybrid composites for repair and recycling PhD
This PhD research opportunity focuses on the development of self-healing three-dimensional metal-composite hybrid materials. These will use through-thickness reinforcement to embed metallic elements, acting as a means of targeted heat introduction, to activate re-processable matrices like thermoplastics or vitrimers.
