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
Crystallisation in Structured Ternary Fluids for Enhanced Control
In crystallisation from solution, a ubiquitous process in both industry and the natural world, nucleation is usually the rate-determining step, followed by much faster crystal growth. Read more
Interfacial flows of yield-stress fluids
The proposed research is focused on interfacial flows of yield-stress fluids. These materials start to flow when a sufficiently large stress is applied to them but behave as solids otherwise. Read more
New types of superconducting probes for quantum fluids
The project is to create and perform experiments with new types of superconducting probes for quantum liquids. vibrating nanowires and precisely controllable levitating spheres. Read more
The fluid mechanics of glacial ice sheets (mathematical modelling, theory, and computation)
This project involves the mathematical modelling and analysis of the dynamics of ice sheets, such as those of Greenland and Antarctica. Read more
Molecular Simulations of Additive Self-Assembly, Rheology, and Surface Adsorption in Complex Fluids
A PhD studentship is available in the group of Professor Philip J. Camp, School of Chemistry, University of Edinburgh. http://www.molsim.chem.ed.ac.uk/. Read more
Numerical simulation of fluid-structure interaction problems
Research Group:
School of Computing
This project aims to develop and implement parallel fluid-structure interaction algorithms including interfaced-fitted methods [1] and two-mesh methods [2], based upon FreeFem++ and PETSc, with application to modelling and simulation of aortic valve interacting with surrounding fluids and tissues; and large-scale simulation of biological swimmers (such as C.

Modelling Reversals of Earth's Magnetic Field
A well known characteristic Earth's magnetic field is that it occasionally reverses, so that the magnetic north and magnetic south. Read more
How does sustained turbulence first appear?
Turbulence causes substantial friction drag, in other words, it is energetically costly in many applications. To potentially delay or suppress turbulence, we need to understand the nature of its appearance. Read more
Depositional controls on subsurface architecture in reservoirs and repositories: A reservoir modelling study. SAFARI5
The SAFARI project is a Joint Industry Project which has been running for 14 years which is starting it’s fifth phase. The overall goal of SAFARI is to facilitate access to geological analogue data for improved understanding of subsurface reservoir and repositories. Read more
FULLY-FUNDED 3.5-YEAR PHD STUDENTSHIP - MODELLING AND CONTROL OF TURBULENT FLOWS
We are excited to announce a new PhD opportunity in modelling, control & optimisation of wall-bounded turbulent flows. Read more
Adapting to the rough seas using a tunable stiffness soft robot
Supervisory Team. Swathi Krishna and Sergio- Araujo Estrada. Project description. Read more
Investigation of convective and conjugate heat transfer for different jet configurations using Direct Numerical Simulations
In this project, we propose to conduct Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of hot jets in turbulent flows, including channel cross flow at different friction Reynolds numbers and impinging jets, using different thermal wall boundary conditions along with conjugate heat transfer (CHT) wall boundary condition.

Mapping the coupling properties of the subduction megathrust using seismic data
Summary. The properties of the subduction interface between plates vary in both space and time. Read more
Viscous fingering instabilities: suppression mechanisms (mathematical modelling, theory, and computation)
The interface between two fluids can be made morphologically unstable, resulting in complex pattern formation frequently encountered in porous media and biological systems. Read more
