SCENARIO: Air quality, thermal effects and micro-climate in urban areas (SC2023_16)
Poor urban air quality and the threat of terrorist attacks by spreading a hazardous substance in cities are a real concern for public safety and health. Read more
Enhancing UAV manoeuvres and control using distributed sensor arrays
Supervisory Team. Dr Sergio Araujo-Estrada. Project description. We are looking for a talented and motivated PhD student to develop flight-control methods to increase manoeuvrability of Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Read more
INDIGO - INtegration and DIGital Demonstration of Low-emission Aircraft Technologies and Airport Operations
INDIGO is a H2020 European Research project, in collaboration with a number of universities and research institute across Europe. Read more
Project CHLOE: Sustainable energy reduction through innovative aerodynamic flow control in the Cloud
Nominally 50% of the total energy consumption of a commercial aircraft or high-speed train is due to the turbulence flowing over every surface of the moving vehicle. Read more
Landing Gear Aerodynamics & Aeroacoustics
Supervisory Team. Dr David Angland. Project description. A PhD studentship is now available in the area of aerodynamics and aeroacoustics of landing gears. Read more
The viability of machine-learning for wind loading and wind field predictions
The use of machine-learning (ML) techniques such as artificial neural networks to generate regression models of complex systems is expanding in a range of fields. Read more
Scalar Dispersion in Turbulent Flows for Air Pollution Applications
Air pollution is the biggest environmental risk to public health. The WHO estimates 7 million premature deaths worldwide due to air pollution annually, and in the UK, it is costing the economy £20bn with over 25,000 deaths annually. Read more
Experimental study of atmospheric winds in and above forested canopies
Turbulent winds within forested canopies are critical to the exchange of water vapor and gases between plants and the atmosphere. Read more
Next generation aeroacoustically and aerodynamically efficient aerofoil
Applications are sought for a self-funded PhD student to undertake a 36-month research into fan broadband noise reduction at Brunel University London. Read more

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
SCENARIO: Improving urban air quality measurement with artificial intelligence (SC2023_32)
It is more important than ever for us to be able to understand how wind and the built environment interact to distribute emissions around densely-populated cities. Read more
Sustainable mitigation of windblown sand in desert
Desert is normally covered by sand dunes that are metastable in nature. Due to the aeolian-led migration by strong wind, these sand dunes inundate the existing infrastructure including National Highways, Railways, Airstrips, Solar parks, Defence structures, etc. Read more
Developing an urban canopy model for improved weather forecasts in cities
Most of the world’s population now experiences an urban version of weather extremes and climate change. Accurate forecasting of weather and air quality in cities relies on correctly representing the physics of turbulent exchange of heat between the surface and the overlying atmosphere. Read more
