Particle Dynamics in Thermally Driven Flows
Dr M Lappa
Applications accepted all year round
We propose an investigation into a variety of dynamics and effects produced by the interaction of particles with fluid flow driven by a temperature gradient.
Group Contribution methods for non-Newtonian fluids
Dr C Avendano
Applications accepted all year round
Applications are invited for a fully funded 3.5 year PhD studentship in the School of Chemical Engineering & Analytical Science, University of Manchester.
Understanding structure-property relationships in non-Newtonian fluids
Prof C Hardacre
Applications accepted all year round
Applications are invited for a fully funded 3.5 year PhD studentship to be conducted in the School of Chemical Engineering & Analytical Science in the University of Manchester and the UK’s neutron facility (ISIS) based in Oxfordshire.
Direct Numerical Simulation of Ferrofluid flows
Dr D Kivotides, Dr P Grassia
Applications accepted all year round
Ferrofluids (magnetic or superparamagnetic fluids) are a special case of colloidal fluids, where single-domain, nanosize ferromagnetic partices are dispersed in a simple liquid.
PhD Studentship for computation of polymeric additives/complex fluids
Dr J Wong
Applications accepted all year round
PhD opportunity on smart additives, funded by EPSRC and the industry. This PhD focuses on smart additives for lubricants. Additives can modify the properties of a lubricant to extend its temperature range, or to improve its friction properties.
Crime scene based screening and identification of intimate body fluids
Dr G Williams
Applications accepted all year round
The screening and identification of blood at crime scenes has been extensively and exhaustively researched with a range of strategies developed ranging from general LMG/KM testing through to ALS, Raman and Hyperspectral imaging.
