Civil Engineering (structure) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 29 Civil Engineering (structure) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Computational Fluid-Structure Interaction with Turbulent and Multiphase flows

Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems involving turbulent and multiphase flows and flexible structures find numerous applications in Science and Engineering, e.g., aeroelasticity of aircraft wings and wind turbine blades, wave-structure interactions of offshore structures, flexible wave energy converters, floating solar farms, and flight of birds and insects.

Fur and Feathers: colour, structure and flow control

The objective in this exciting cross-disciplinary project is to investigate the potential of a bio-inspired coating of flexible devices to passively modify energetic modes of an unsteady crossflow and to assess, for the first time, the role of colour in determining mechanical properties. Read more

Modelling blood motion in deformable vessels

This project aims to introduce a novel approach in studying blood flow in deformable vessels by simultaneously considering both the fluid (blood) and the structure (vessel) through analytical and numerical approaches. Read more

Numerical modelling of multiphase flow and reactive transport in porous materials

Understanding reactive transport in porous materials is of utmost importance for a wide range of engineering applications, including subsurface energy storage, low-carbon building materials and fuel cells. Read more

Artificial Optical Nervous System

Supervisory Team: Ali Masoudi & Gilberto Brambilla. Project description. The study of the mechanical properties of any large, complex structures such as a space launch vehicle or Earth’s crust relies on a large array of sophisticated and, often, expensive sensors. Read more

Mechanics of Helical Pile Installation in Chalk

Supervisory Team: David Richards, Fernando Alvarez-Borges, Madhu Murthy, Benjamin Cerfontaine. Project description. Around 70% of Europe’s offshore wind turbines are installed in the North Sea. Read more

PhD Studentship: Assessing the impact of deep shafts in urban areas - (ENG 1764)

Construction of large and deep shafts in urban areas is necessary for various construction activities, such as tunnel construction where shafts serve as integral components of the tunnel construction and often operational phases. Read more
