How much carbon will forests take up in the future?
Climate change has been happening at an unprecedented rate due to human activities such as fossil fuel burning and land-use change. Read more
Developing Active Green Walls for Classrooms
This project is funded by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) and will pursue a multi-scale approach to establish the potential of active green walls to improve environmental quality in classrooms. Read more
Preparing for bigger floods: Advancing modelling and risk assessment for extreme flood events
Description of the project. The world has seen devastating flood events in the last two years, for example, in Central Europe in 2021 and in Pakistan in 2022. Read more
Computational modelling and risk assessment of heavy rainfall impacts on transport infrastructure
Description of the project. This highly exciting project help to address one of the most challenging engineering problems – adapting to climate change, and help the student to learning highly sought-after skills and knowledge for a wide range of career paths. Read more
Flood futures: how is flood hazard risk evolving in the UK?
Project Highlights. Opportunity to develop strong skills in R programming, large data analysis, numerical modelling and cluster computing. Read more
PhD studentship in in situ imaging and diffraction of dual-phase zeolite composites for nuclear waste remediation.
Applications are sought for a PhD project under the supervision of Dr Phoebe Allan at the University of Birmingham, Dr Sharif Ahmed and Dr Joe Hriljac at Diamond Light Source, and Dr Tom Carey at the National Nuclear Laboratory. Read more
Toward next generation space environment modeling capability
The ionosphere is a layer of plasma in the upper atmosphere (thermosphere), produced by the ionization of atmospheric constituents by solar radiation and energetic particles. Read more
Tribological Interaction between Human Skin and Recycled Textiles
Tribology's importance is not limited to mechanical components of engineering systems such as a gearbox. The investigation of friction and wear can be applied to many applications. Read more
Climate-resilience and sustainability optimisation in transport infrastructure adaptation
The candidate may have any background in infrastructure and/or environmental engineering and will have an understanding of hazards, such as climate and/or human induced hazards and stressors. Read more
Resilience-based management of transport infrastructure enhanced by digital data and Artificial Intelligence (AI)
The candidate may have any background in civil and/or structural engineering and will have an understanding of digital data and value of digital twins, and how to process data using streamlined Artificial Intelligence methods for solving engineering problems. Read more
Frequency Comb Spectroscopy for Volatile Organic Compound Emission Profiling
A fully funded (3.5 years) PhD position in the field of frequency comb laser spectroscopy for use in gas phase molecular sensing is available in the group of Dr Julia Lehman at the University of Birmingham. Read more
Modelling the Upper Atmosphere for Space Weather
Comprehensive, global and timely specifications of the Earth’s upper atmosphere are required to ensure the effective operation, planning and management of a range of systems impacted by space weather. Read more
Statistics for Space Weather
Space weather events can negatively effect satellites, the electricity grid, satellite navigation systems and human health. Such consequences have caused space weather to be added to the UK (amongst other nations) National Risk Register. Read more
