Fluid-rock interaction and its influence on rock mechanical properties
Rock and fluid interactions alternate the fluid flow and mechanical properties of porous material and thus play a significant role in many aspects of subsurface engineering application, for example CO2 geological storage and enhanced hydrocarbon recovery. Read more
Coupling of fluid flow with multiple physics
Prof. Xuerui Mao’s research group at Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT) is recruiting a PHD student on simulation or experiments of complex fluid flow coupled with multiple physics, with potential topics depending on the expertise and interest of the candidate. Read more
Identification of key features in high-dimensional fluid flow
Prof. Xuerui Mao’s research group at Beijing Institute of Technology (BIT) is recruiting a PHD student on data science related with high-dimenional fluid flow, with potential topics depending on the expertise and interest of the candidate. Read more
Reliable modelling of non-Newtonian sludge flows using novel computational fluid dynamics
The project is interdisciplinary in two dimensions because it brings together experiments and simulations as well as solid and fluid mechanics. The… Read more
Computer modelling of fluid flow within supercoolers used in the continuous casting of metals
Aim. Develop computer model of engineering process for manufacturing. Supercoolers are a key component used in the solidification of liquid metal by cooling. Read more
Phenomenological Modelling of Nature-Inspired Energy Extraction
Natural mechanical power from steady water flows in oceans and rivers can provide an alternative and abundant source of cheap and clean energy, in addition to the renewable energy from winds, waves and sun. Read more
Stability and transition in compressible shear flows
Laminar-turbulent transition, the process of how laminar flows become turbulent, is critical in many engineering applications. Read more
CFD modelling of plasma flow control
Active flow control can be utilised to modify fluid flow in advantageous ways without performance penalties of passive flow control. For example, to… Read more
Effects of nozzle design and surface temperature on the wall shear stresses of impinging jets
Impinging jets are flow features seen in heat exchangers and aero engines. Such applications may suffer from the development of deposits which would therefore restrict the heat transfer between the incoming fluid and the solid wall and even affect fluid flow. Read more
Modelling blood motion in deformable vessels
This project aims to introduce a novel approach in studying blood flow in deformable vessels by simultaneously considering both the fluid (blood) and the structure (vessel) through analytical and numerical approaches. Read more
CFD simulation of a perforated rotating bucket in the prilling process
Research Group:
Advanced Materials Engineering
Prilling is a finishing process in chemical and petrochemical industries for producing reasonably uniform spherical particles from molten solutions of chemicals such as urea or ammonium nitrate. Read more
Feasibility study of mineral mining from subsurface reservoirs for renewable energy storage
Critical minerals such as alkali metals play an important role in batteries and fuel cells. Their demand is expected to increase as more of the world turns to electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems. Read more
An assessment of non-Newtonian flow in laminar and turbulent mixing flow conditions
Newtonian fluids (e.g. water) exhibit a linear relationship between shear stress and shear strain rate, where the viscosity is the coefficient of proportionality between applied shear stress and velocity gradient. Read more
A novel membrane-free flow battery for renewable energy storage: Prototype Design by Simulation
PROJECT REFERENCE NUMBER. Please select SCEBE-22SF-NMFFB-Chen from the drop-down list or add this to your proposal writeup. BACKGROUND. Read more
Mechanisms of cancer cell invasion
Epithelial cancers such as breast cancer become difficult to treat when they invade the surrounding tissues, eventually entering the blood stream and spreading to other parts of the body to form metastases. Read more
