  How does bed topography effect turbulence and flow resistance in rivers?
University of Liverpool School of Environmental Sciences
  Dr J Cooper, Dr J Higham
Application Deadline: 23 January 2019
Introduction. This experimental project aims to develop new understanding of the role of bed topography in the generation of turbulence and flow resistance in gravel-bed rivers.

  Singularities of Mean Curvature Flow and Related Topics
Queen Mary University of London School of Mathematical Sciences
  Research Group: Geometry and Analysis
  Dr R Buzano, Dr H Nguyen
Application Deadline: 31 January 2019
The School of Mathematical Sciences of Queen Mary University of London invite applications for a PhD project commencing in September 2019.

  Fast Algorithms for Cluster Dynamics in Multi-phase Flow Pore-networks
Heriot-Watt University School of Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society
  Research Group: Institute of Petroleum Engineering
  Dr R van Dijke
Application Deadline: 1 February 2019
Recent 3D micro-CT visualisations of two-phase flow in porous media have revealed and confirmed pore-scale displacement mechanisms, such as trapped ganglion movement, as well as sudden interface advance (Haines jumps) and retraction (Berg et al., 2013; Reynolds et al., 2017.).

  River ecosystem resilience to changing flow regimes
University of Birmingham NERC Doctoral Training Centre Studentships with CENTA
  Dr M E Ledger, Dr A M Milner
Application Deadline: 21 January 2019
Water scarcity and drought are among the most pressing environmental issues of the century. River ecosystems, already degraded by excessive water use associated with growing populations, will be further affected by widespread shifts in rainfall patterns where climate change alters natural flow regimes.

  Surface-based Modelling of Tensorial Fluid Flow in Fractured Systems – Application to Modelling Subsurface Energy from Petroleum and Geothermal Resources
Heriot-Watt University School of Energy, Geoscience, Infrastructure and Society
  Research Group: Institute of Petroleum Engineering
  Dr M Bentley
Application Deadline: 1 February 2019
Fluid flow in the subsurface occurs in both porous rock matrices and in open fractures. Matrix flow is conventionally modelled in 3D cellular grids through which fluid flow is modelled in finite difference simulators.

  Quantifying and modelling annual variability in the flow of Greenland and the Antarctic Ice Sheets and assessing global impacts (Advert Reference: RDF19/EE/GES/GUDMUNDSSON)
Northumbria University Faculty of Engineering and Environment
  Dr H Gudmundsson
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
Ice sheets are currently the biggest contributors to global sea level change and their contributions may possibly increase sharply in the near future.

  Flow characteristics and sediment transport in vegetated compound channels
University of Bradford Faculty of Engineering and Informatics
  Research Group: Centre For Sustainable Environments
  Prof Y Guo
Applications accepted all year round
The project is to examine the effect of vegetations on the open channel/river flow and sediment transport. It is well known that plants can reduce flow velocity, and thus sediment transport by creating additional flow resistance, leading to the increase of the river flooding.

  Go with the flow: the why and how of cardiovascular disease
University of Oxford Radcliffe Department of Medicine
  Dr E Tzima
Application Deadline: 26 July 2019
Have you ever wondered why and how cardiovascular disease and atherosclerotic plaques develop in the areas that they do? Why is it that some arteries are prone to blockage while others are protected? The answer lies with blood flow.

Type/Funding
  A pressure governing approach for modelling of variable flow systems in Building Performance Simulation (BPS) tools
University of Reading School of the Built Environment
  Dr M Shahrestani, Dr S Smith, Assoc Prof E A Essah
Applications accepted all year round
Heating and cooling distribution systems are the most common parts of heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC&R) systems, which account for a significant portion of energy used in HVAC&R systems.

  Effect of Vegetation Patch on Compound Channel Flows
Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University Civil Engineering
  Dr X Tang, Dr M Li
Applications accepted all year round
Many natural rivers and man-made channels have a compound cross-section, which comprises one deep main channel bounded with one or two shallow floodplains, where various vegetation exists.
