Applications are invited for a research studentship in the field of Tribology, leading to the award of a PhD degree. . Interfaces between moving surface, covering a vast range of practical applications in industrial and biomedical sectors, are critical in determining efficiency and durability. Read more
PhD Studentship in Experimental Mechanochemistry
Applications are invited for a research studentship in the field of Mechanochemistry, with a focus in Tribology, leading to the award of a PhD degree. The post is supported by a bursary and fees (at the UK student rate) provided by the EPSRC / Shell. EPSRC candidates should fulfil the eligibility criteria for the award. International candidates will be considered. Read more
Sourcing the next generation of lubricants: exploring the potential of new natural sources of lubricants for industrial applications
Lubrication relies heavily on the petro-chemical industry to supply base oils for most applications. This is a risk to the industry in many aspects. Read more
Elastic wave propagation
We have built our world out of steel, concrete, and other stiff solids. How well these structures endure depends on the tension and strains they are under, which are closely related to the material’s elastic behaviour. Read more
EPSRC DTP Project: New Manufacturing Processes and Materials for Shearing Blades
The department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bath is inviting applications for the following fully funded PhD project, expected to commence in September/October 2023. Read more
Ultimate solid lubricants: 2D materials reducing energy loss
Supervisory Team. Prof. Tomas Polcar. Project description. 2D solid lubricants exhibit unique tribological properties with negligible friction state, so-called superlubricity. Read more
Born Slippy: Understanding the tribological mechanisms of fertility treatments and their impact on conception
Infertility affects 186M women in the developed world, with approximately 55M attributed to tubal patency - this is a big problem! Hysterosalpingography or HSG is a diagnostic procedure that is also an effective treatment for tubal problems. Read more
Development of a Novel Methodology for X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy Depth Profiling of Thin Films and Coatings
X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) is the primary technique employed to determine the chemical composition of material surfaces, with an analysis depth of approximately 5 nm. Read more
PhD studentships in Engineering
We offer PhDs in Engineering (MPhil/PhD) across seven research themes: Communication & Information Engineering; Computational Engineering; Data-Centric Engineering; Design & Mechatronics; Energy & Power Systems; Manufacturing, Materials & Systems; and Signals & Control. Read more
Computational modelling of cement-implant and cement-bone fracture in Unicondylar Knee Replacements (UKR)
Loosening is one of the major causes of implant failures, resulting in a lower success rate of joint replacement surgery. However, research conducted on the fracture of the polymer bone cement which holds the implant in place has not been extensive. Read more
