AI for selection of corrosion inhibitors: Enabling real-world in silico evaluation
This PhD provides an exciting and unique opportunity for someone to work at the interface between two quite different fields, namely corrosion control and pharmaceutical drug design, to test the following hypothesis. Read more
Fatigue Damage Mechanism of Cable-stayed Structures under Corrosion Attack and the Quantum Technology for Corrosion Inspection and Monitoring
Directly using a series of parallel cables to support bridge decks (known as cable-stayed bridges) offers a number of advantages over traditional bridge structures, such as cantilever bridges and suspension bridges. Read more
Investigation of hydrogen embrittlement of steels for the hydrogen transport energy future
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE), the loss of the ductility due to the diffusion of atomic hydrogen in steels, has major consequences in pipelines. Read more
Hybrid coatings for corrosion protection of light alloys
We welcome applications from candidates to work with our interdisciplinary and collaborative team on a project on the development of hybrid coatings for active corrosion protection of light alloys. Read more
Advanced characterisation of stress corrosion cracking in long-term aqueous storage of 20-25Nb AGR cladding

Building a concept for hydrogen-tolerant alloys
Supervisors: Professor Michael Preuss (Monash). Application deadline: accepting applications immediately for a planned PhD commencement March/April 2023. Read more
Development of a performance test method to evaluate effectiveness and service life of galvanic anodes used as part of repair systems and cathodic protection in reinforced concrete structures
One of the most challenging durability issues and causes of defects in reinforced concrete infrastructures is the corrosion of steel reinforcement, which leads to rust formation, cracking, spalling, delamination and degradation of structures (Popov, 2015 and Michael et al, 2016). Read more
