Data-driven approach for numerical modelling of composite plates and shells (RDF25/EE/MCE/NGUYEN)
A recent report from Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy and Innovate UK in July 2021 revealed that the UK composite end-product market in 2019 was estimated at £2.8B and expected to grow to £4.3B by 2035. Read more
Quantifying the Impact of Sustainable Aviation Fuel on Ice Crystal Nucleation Using a Cloud Chamber and Numerical Modelling
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is gaining global attention as a critical solution for reducing the environmental impact of aviation. Read more
Assessing the proximity of tipping points in Antarctica using numerical modelling and Earth Observation (ESA25/EE/GES/REESE)
This project will investigate the proximity of tipping points in Antarctica using numerical modelling and Earth Observation. Climate tipping points are critical thresholds that if crossed, can lead to rapid and irreversible changes in the climate system with dramatic consequences for societies worldwide. Read more
Using Numerical Modelling and AI to Understand the Fundamentals of Resonant Acoustic Mixing
Resonant Acoustic Mixing is a relatively new technology for the processing of diverse solid/solid, solid/liquid and liquid/solid systems. Read more
Fluvial plastic transport - physical and numerical modelling
Background. Plastics in fluvial environments have become an emerging threat to habitats. The expected long-life and potential adsorption of contaminants during transport has led to a growing concern of the international community. Read more
University of Bath URSA project: Experimental characterisation and numerical modelling of ceramic-tungsten composites for nuclear fusion energy
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the University of Bath URSA competition, for entry in September 2025. Read more
Numerical Modelling of Hydrogen Explosions in semi-Confined Spaces
The Centre for Doctoral Training in Fluid Dynamics is now recruiting to this fantastic PhD opportunity in partnership with Sellafield Ltd. Read more
PhD in Geographical and Earth Sciences - Sink or Swim? Modelling Crystal Settling and Flotation in the Lunar Magma Ocean
Start Date. 01/10/2025. Aims. This project will develop a new generation of dynamic magma ocean models that incorporate thermo-chemical convection and crystal segregation of a crystallizing magma ocean cooled from the top. Read more
Predicting Hydrogen Embrittlement in Metallic Alloys using Multiscale Numerical Modelling (Ref: UF-AR-2024-4)
Please note that this project is not University-funded. You will need to secure external funding to cover your tuition and living expenses. Read more
Modelling nuclear graphite waste smouldering: A novel approach to managing a highly challenging waste stream
The UK’s fleet of Advanced Gas-cooled Reactors (AGRs) utilises graphite moderator bricks, which become radiologically contaminated – primarily with Carbon-14 (C-14) and other radionuclides such as Co60 – through transmutation over decades of operation. Read more
Modelling the dynamics of surfactant-laden droplets for sustainable design of emulsions
Background. Emulsions, which consist of dispersed droplets of one liquid in another immiscible liquid, are critical components in a wide range of applications, from personal care products and pharmaceuticals to food, agrochemicals, and lubricants. Read more
Understanding high strain-rate deformation in multi-phase materials using a combined Eulerian phase-field and crystal plasticity approach
High strain-rate events in metallic structures often lead to complex fracture, as the shock wave propagates through the microstructure, and can result in the catastrophic failure of a component. Read more
Design and Optimisation of RF Wave-Coupled Plasma Propulsion Systems
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
The Impact of Hetereogeneity on Geothermal Resources of the Sherwood Sandstone Formation
This fully funded PhD project is part of the QUARTILES Doctoral Landscape Award, a BBSRC and NERC-funded research and training programme designed to equip… Read more
