Efficient performance prediction tools for wind assisted ships
Supervisory Team. Dr Joseph Banks, Prof Dominic Hudson, Dr Martyn Prince. Project description. One of the most promising ways to rapidly decrease the CO2 emissions from commercial ships is thorough the use of wind to directly generate thrust. Read more
Learning-based Control and its applications to marine systems and renewable energy systems
Supervisory Team. Dr. Yao Zhang, Prof. Stephen Turnock. Project description. Applications are invited for a 3.5 years PhD studentship in School of Engineering, at University of Southampton, in the field of Dynamics and Control (Ship science Research Group). Read more
An AI all-weather look-out for autonomous marine navigation
Autonomous maritime navigation is set to transform the maritime industry providing consistent, continuous and cost-effective navigation free from human error. Read more
QUADRAT DTP: A sustainable future for Arctic marine shipping using Artificial Intelligence
Arctic warming has led to a dramatic reduction in sea ice coverage. As a result, marine traffic is increasing across the Arctic region and expanding the geographical reach of the Arctic blue economy. Read more

Understanding Air Lubrication Systems through Machine Learning
Supervisory Team. Adam Sobey (CMEE/ME), Dominic Hudson (CMEE/ME). Project description. Despite being an efficient form of transport, shipping causes between 2-3% of world emissions. Read more
Improving Air Lubrication Systems through deeper understanding the physics of operation
Supervisory Team. Dominic Hudson (CMEE) and Adam Sobey (CMEE). Project description. Despite being an efficient form of transport, shipping causes between 2-3% of world emissions. Read more
Design and Operation of Autonomous Wind Powered Ships
To reduce the impact of shipping on climate change, the use of wind power has been proven to be successful [1]. With the addition of a new propulsion mechanism [2] comes new challenges in the safety, control, and operation of the ship. Read more
Microgrid control and digital twins for shipboard applications
It is generally estimated that 90% of goods are transported by sea and that ships are responsible for approximately 2.8% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Read more
Gate Rudder Integrated Wind Assisted Propulsion (GRASP)
Shipping is a vital component of the global economy, but it is also a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Read more
Digital twin of green shipping corridors - Mitsui O.S.K Lines (MOL)
successful candidate will be co-supervised by academics from within the School of Engineering at Newcastle University and work alongside our external partner. Read more
Antimicrobial Stewardship and the role of the nurse within the hospital setting: The need to speak up. (Ref: SHLS22103)
Research Group:
Safeguarding Health through Infection Prevention
Background. Antimicrobial resistance is a public health priority with human, financial and social costs. Although Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) has typically been the role of doctors or pharmacists, nurses have a key role in the preservation of antibiotics as one of the main deliverers of patient care. Read more
Development of a free-running CFD-based collision avoidance model for maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS) in restricted waters
Supervisory Team: Dr Tahsin Tezdogan and Professor Stephen Turnock. Project description. Are you interested in pursuing a PhD in the exciting field of maritime autonomy? We are currently looking for a motivated and passionate PhD student to join our. Read more
