Finding the eye of the storm: Peronalising atrial fibrillation therapy using local pressure measurements
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia globally, affecting about 2.5% of the UK population. AF increases risk of heart failure, dementia and reduces quality-of-life. Read more
Quantifying the impacts and consequences of future climate, super-events
There is a great deal of anecdotal evidence that some storms are particularly damaging. For example, for Storm Arwen it has been said that it was… Read more
'You can't unionise robots': Exploring the impact of technology on the nature of work in the logistics sector in the US and UK
Research Group:
Centre for Decent Work
Project description. Read more
EPSRC PhD Studentship in: Investigating the Effect of Soil Conditions on Pipeline Infiltration using Large-scale Physical modelling
The University of Sheffield, Sheffield Water Centre in collaboration with the Centre for Doctoral Training in Water Infrastructure and Resilience. Read more
SCENARIO: The impact of high resolution modelling on mineral dust forecasts over West Africa using the ECMWF integrated forecast system (SC2023_02)
Research Group:
SCENARIO NERC DTP
Dust storms are a major driver of poor air quality in many parts of the world, particularly in West Africa. During dust storms particulate matter thresholds are regularly exceeded, contributing to premature mortality. Read more
SCENARIO: How will extreme weather affect the energy sector in Europe under climate change? (SC2023_19)
Research Group:
SCENARIO NERC DTP
Weather affects both electricity supply and demand, for example during still and cold winter days when low supply from wind turbines coincides with high demand for heating. Read more
Regulation of water and nutrient cycles with Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) in a changing environment
Reference number. SCEBE-20-002-AGOSF. Aim & Scope. Climate change and population growth are threatening the quality and resilience of the Earth’s ecosystems. Read more
Optimising asset capture and management in the water sector using geospatial technologies - Northumbrian Water Group Limited
This project is part of the . Centre for Doctoral Training in Geospatial Systems. . The 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
Predicting whipping induced failure in a cyclic progressive collapse analysis of ship structures
Supporting an ongoing collaboration between Newcastle University (Dr Simon Benson), Osaka University (Prof Akira Tatsumi) and University of Strathclyde (Dr Shen Li), this PhD project will contribute invaluable research in the field of marine structures, specifically investigating the cyclic progressive collapse of ships. Read more
Multiple river response to restoration and climate change
The UK’s climate is becoming wetter, with rain from extremely wet days increasing by 17%, comparing the period 2008-2017 to 1961-1990. Read more
Effects of flexible vegetation on oscillatory flow hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics
Coastal vegetation such as seagrass protects against coastal erosion by attenuating wave energy and demobilising suspended sediments. Read more
Mixing in Engineered Water Systems – Relating Dispersion to Energy Loss
Taylor (1954) described the process of longitudinal dispersion in highly turbulent flow in a simple uniform pipe. To-date his analytical equilibrium approach remains the primary tool for modelling mixing in most 1D engineered water network models. Read more
Develop single-molecule and super-resolution microscopy imaging technologies in the cardiovascular disease
This project will focus on development, improvement, and application of single-molecule tracking and super-resolution imaging, such as TIRF, HiLo, PALM, STORM, Lattice Light-Sheet Microscopy and other technologies, for the analysis of key proteins in the process of thrombosis and platelet activation, dynamic processes such as molecular conformational changes (i.e. Read more
