  Quantifying Uncertainties Associated with Source Influences on particle-laden buoyant PLUMES (QUASI-PLUMES)
University of Dundee School of Science and Engineering
  Dr A Cuthbertson, Dr YS Park
Application Deadline: 3 February 2019
Understanding the environmental impacts of wastewater discharges into oceans, dredged material disposal in coastal marine waters and atmospheric emissions from industrial stacks and volcanoes, requires detailed knowledge of how the multiphase (fluid + particulate) behaviour of buoyant jets and plumes is affected by the source conditions (e.g.

  Fluid flows through porous obstacles
Aberdeen University School of Engineering
  Prof D Pokrajac, Dr D Van der A
Applications accepted all year round
Environmental and industrial fluid mechanics problems often involve flows through porous obstacles. Examples of practical applications include flow through atmospheric and aquatic vegetation, offshore structures, buildings exposed to flooding and arrays of turbines in tidal channels.

  Secondary currents in rough-bed open-channel flows and their effects on hydraulic resistance
Aberdeen University School of Engineering
  Prof V Nikora, Dr S Cameron
Applications accepted all year round
Secondary currents in open-channel flows such as rivers and canals play a key role in transport of momentum, sediments, nutrients, and other substances.

  Very large scale motions (VLSM) in rough-bed open-channel flows and their effects on hydraulic resistance
Aberdeen University School of Engineering
  Prof V Nikora, Dr S Cameron
Applications accepted all year round
Turbulence in open-channel flows such as rivers and canals plays a key role in transport of momentum, sediments, nutrients, and other substances.

  The Energetics and Dynamics of Fluid-Structure Interaction in Blood Vessels and Industrial Hoses (WHITTAKERR19SF)
University of East Anglia School of Mathematics
  Dr R Whittaker
Application Deadline: 31 May 2019
Fluid-conveying elastic-walled tubes arise in many engineering and biomechanical systems. Examples include blood flow in veins and arteries, flow in the airways, and industrial fluid transport and pumping systems.

  Developing a multiscale description of complex fluids from the molecular to the continuum scales
University of Strathclyde Department of Chemical and Process Engineering
  Dr L Lue, Dr D Kivotides
Applications accepted all year round
Engineers have traditionally used continuum equations to model processes, such as the Navier-Stokes equation for fluid flow. These methods require constitutive relations that encode the properties of the fluid; these are typically determined empirically and have limited predictive capabilities.
