Interested in high performance, lightweight composite materials? Take advantage of the fact that companies in the aerospace and automotive sectors are currently looking for good materials scientists and engineers with a composites PhD!. Read more
Nowadays in electric cars, batteries, contribute a large part of the vehicle's weight, which means additional footprinting and load bearing function. Read more
Currently, the application of composite materials in oil and gas industry lacks proven test methodologies and understanding of technical and fundamental issues relevant specifically to composite materials and structures. Read more
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
Formula 1 car composite panels are subjected to extreme loads. Cracks can develop at the composite microstructure at an early stage and then propagate due to fatigue which poses a serious hazard. Read more
Composite structures are extraordinarily versatile. They have been used across mechanical, aerospace, civil engineering sectors in a range of applications (airframes, new car configurations, etc). Read more
Project introduction. The production and usage of today’s modern cars is a major contributor to global CO2 emissions. Although technology has moved a lot, the main processes to mass produce a car, have remained the same namely; injection moulding, stamping and casting. Read more
Metal-organic frameworks or MOFs are a class of porous materials made of metal ions and rigid organic linkers, which are known as secondary building units or SBUs. Read more
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
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
Please note that this is an MPhil Project. The composites industry is facing significant environmental challenges due to waste management and resource efficiency issues. Read more
KU Leuven consistently ranks among the top 50 universities in the world by major ranking tables with the Department of Mechanical Engineering being ranked amongst the 40 best worldwide. Read more
