  New generation of brake pads – design and tribological testing (Advert Reference: RDF19/EE/MCE/ZABIEGAJ)
Northumbria University Faculty of Engineering and Environment
  Dr D Zabiegaj
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
Road traffics and industrial processes that are well-known as exhaust emissions producers; however, released Particulate Matter (PM) originates also from a number of non-exhaust processes, brake and tyres, involving corrosion and mechanical abrasion.

  CDT-SIS-492: Investigating the long-term response of geogrid-reinforced ballast under realistic loading conditions
University of Southampton Engineering & The Environment
  Research Group: Sustainable Infrastructure Systems (SIS)
  Dr M J Fernandes De Pinho Lopes, Prof W Powrie
Application Deadline: 14 December 2018
Railway transportation of both freight and people is key to reduce CO2 emissions significantly. There are several advantages of railway transportation; however, minimising track maintenance costs, and finding alternative materials and approaches to improve the performance of railway track is essential.

  Physiological and molecular characterisation of altered root hydraulic properties in rice due to allelic variation or genetic manipulation of plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs, a class of aquaporins)
Aberdeen University School of Biological Sciences
  Prof A Price
Applications accepted all year round
A cluster of three PIPs on chromosome 7 of rice are all candidate genes for a drought avoidance locus. These genes are highly expressed in roots and thought to have a major role in root hydraulic conductance.
