wave PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 184 wave PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Wave power absorption with Wave Energy Converter (WEC) arrays for green electricity generations
The Industry and Innovation Research Institute (I2Ri) draws on talents, expertise and facilities across Sheffield Hallam University. Read more
Exploring the mechanisms of shear wave propagation in granular materials using DEM
Shear wave propagation and associated velocity Vs, are fundamental in characterising the small-strain response of soils. In addition, the shear wave velocity is essential input information in the characterisation of soils under static and dynamic conditions and eventually, in the design of geotechnical structures.
