  Treating cancer by targeting the mechanical properties of cells
University of Sheffield Oncology and Metabolism
  Dr A Gad
Applications accepted all year round
Cancer development is marked by massive increase of matrix fibres around tumor cells, which changes the mechanical properties of the tissue and is used to diagnose tumours by manual palpation.

  PhD Studentship (Sponsored by Lloyds Register Foundation) – Composite casing with variable thermal conductivity for passive cooling of battery elements
National Structural Integrity Research Centre Engineering
  Dr M Kazilas, Ms S Walker
Applications accepted all year round
Background. The need for clean electric powered vehicles (EVs) will lead to a growth of battery elements both in size and power output.

  Studentship Opportunity in Deterioration relationships for a variety of water main materials
University of Surrey Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences
  Dr D Jesson, Dr M Mulheron
Applications accepted all year round
For something that we drink every day, water is a surprising problem for the materials scientist. there are no materials suitable for large scale water distribution networks that remain unaffected by their contents over time.

  Voltage uprating for more-electric and hybrid aircraft
Cardiff University Cardiff School of Engineering
  Dr D Clark, Prof M Haddad
Application Deadline: 31 August 2019
Decarbonisation of the transport sector is a major priority, both nationally and globally. It is estimated that the domestic and international aviation sectors constitute 2% of the global CO2 emissions arising from human activity.

  A novel technique for handling missing data for structural health monitoring of HIC / SOHIC
National Structural Integrity Research Centre Engineering
  Dr S Soua, Ms S Walker
Applications accepted all year round
Background. Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) / Stress Oriented Hydrogen Induced Cracking (SOHIC) is the process of hydrogen forming metals becoming brittle as a result of the diffusion mechanisms of hydrogen into the microstructure of steel structures.

Type/Funding
  PhD Studentship (Sponsored by Lloyds Register Foundation) – Crack Tip Constraint in Typical High Strength Steel Components in Arctic Conditions
National Structural Integrity Research Centre Engineering
  Dr R Kulka, Ms S Walker
Applications accepted all year round
Background.

Type/Funding
  PhD Studentship (Sponsored by Lloyds Register Foundation) - Development of methods to evaluate dynamic fracture toughness of metallic materials at very high loading rates under conditions of limited plastic deformation
National Structural Integrity Research Centre Engineering
  Dr Y Janin, Ms S Walker
Applications accepted all year round
Background. Many important industrial applications require that dynamic fracture toughness of materials is quantified and the accuracy of safety assessments depends on this material property.

  Stimuli-responsive biopolymers for life science, materials and therapeutic applications
Royal Holloway, University of London School of Biological Sciences
  Dr M Soloviev
Applications accepted all year round
This is a self-funded project, match-finding option may be available for qualifying candidates. Please include a detailed CV with any enquiries.

Type/Funding
  Simulation of quantum transport with cold atoms
University of Birmingham School of Physics and Astronomy
  Dr V Boyer
Applications accepted all year round
Quantum mechanics is believed to play a role in certain natural processes such as light harvesting. For example certain bacteria are capable of capturing the energy of an incoming photon and transporting the resulting excitation to the reaction centre with great efficiency.
