PhD in Automated Eddy Currents Inspection of Dry Carbon Fibre/Fabric for Composite Manufacturing and Recycling
Background. From the 110,000 tonnes of composites produced in the UK each year, currently, only 15% will be reused or recycled at the end of their life and the rest are transferred to ever-growing landfills [4]. Read more
Funded PhD project: Advanced structural characterisation and simulation of defects in carbon fibre composite propeller blades
The department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bath is inviting applications for the following fully funded PhD project with enhanced stipend, expected to commence by September 2023. Read more
Enhancement of electrical conductivity of carbon fibre composite for resisting lightening strike on aircrafts
In the structure of new advanced civil aircrafts the main fuselage structures are being redesigned to use carbon fibre-reinforced composites (CFRP) mainly due to their lightweight, high specific stiffness and strength. Read more
Investigation of the Fibre-matrix Interface for Glass Fibre & Carbon Fibre Composites Exposed to LH2 Cryogenic Loading and Fatigue Conditions.
The aim of this project is to understand and quantify the fibre-matrix interface for current generation resin (e.g. epoxy) and fibre combinations, (e.g. Read more
Improving the mechanical properties of carbon fibre composites via inkjet printed polymer inclusions
Carbon fibre composites have been toughened, and strengthened, by using inkjet printing to deposit discrete droplets of polymer onto the pre-preg that is used to produce the final composite material. Read more
Modelling and characterisation of chip formation and machining induced defects of nano-particle toughened Carbon Fibre Polymer Composites
Fibre reinforced composites with thermoset polymer matrix are replacing metallic engineering alloys due to their strength/weight ratio specially in the aerospace and automotive industries. Read more

Graphene/Nanoparticles Reinforced Multi-scale Carbon/Glass Composites for Advanced Aerospace and Automobile Engineering PhD
Fibre reinforced composites have excellent in plane strength and stiffness and are being used in increasing quantities in aerospace, sports, automotive and wind turbine blade industries. Read more
Fatigue and Fracture of Fibre Composites
Aircraft manufacturers are now competing based on their aircraft’s fuel efficiency due to the high cost of aviation fuel. As a result, in recent years, these manufacturers have turned more and more to the use of lightweight composites in their designs for almost every component of their aircraft. Read more
Solving NDT&E Challenges for the Future Aerospace Industry
Industrial Partner. Airbus Operations Limited. To achieve carbon-neutral status by 2050, the aerospace sector, including industry leaders like Airbus, is strongly driven to develop lightweight aerostructures using novel materials and manufacturing techniques. Read more
Recycling Polymeric-based Composites for Construction Applications
In the UK, glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) contributes to 75,000 tons end of life waste in addition to 6,200 tons of production waste. Read more
Sensory analysis for improved ice hockey stick design
Some of the greatest advancements in how ice hockey is played today are largely driven by modern ice hockey sticks – often engineered with leading carbon fibre technology – which allows for maximal energy storage and increased shot speeds compared to traditional wooden sticks. Read more
Creating novel testing technologies for patient specific fracture fixation devices
Applications are invited for a three year self-funded Postgraduate Research project, to be undertaken at Aston University. The successful applicant will join an established experimental group working on biomaterials for orthopaedic implants. . Read more
