Exploring the decarbonisation potential of the concrete sector via use of digestate wastewaters for the hydration of cement in an industrial symbiosis scenario
Applications are invited for a PhD candidate to join the . Department of Engineering. at Manchester Met University. The overarching goal is to test the use of wastewaters and/or anaerobic digestates as water replacement in concrete making. Read more
Use of recycled concrete materials from nuclear decommissioning for sustainable nuclear waste management
What would you do with the vast amount of concrete wastes arising from decommissioning of closed nuclear facilities? This project focus on the recycling of such materials. Read more
NHS hospital trusts readiness towards resilience automatization using digital technologies - A collaborative PhD project with Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust
About Anglia Ruskin University. ARU is an innovative global university with 39,400 students from 185 countries. We've once again been named as one of the top 350 institutions in the world in The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2022 – and one of the top 40 universities in the UK. Read more
Life Prediction of Power Plant Components with Welds under Flexible, Thermal-Mechanical Loadings and Operation Cycle Optimization
The aim of the PhD project is to investigate the creep and creep fatigue behaviours of CSEF power plant steels subject to realistic plant loading cycles. Read more
Next-Generation Low-Carbon Cement Wasteforms for Safe Disposal of Radioactive Waste
In the UK, over 150,000m3 of radioactive waste (enough to fill 60 Olympic size swimming pools) has been produced to date. Most of this radioactive waste needs conditioning by encapsulating it in cement to prevent release to the biosphere. Read more
Magnox sludge immobilisation in bespoke acid-based geopolymers
This research project will be conducted at the University of Leeds, and the supervisory team comprises early career researchers as well as a senior academic, internationally recognised for their expertise in the design, advanced characterisation and performance assessment of cementitious materials for both nuclear wastes disposal and infrastructure applications.

Hydro-geochemical evolution of clay-based barriers during infiltration of saline groundwater
Deep geological disposal concepts are preferred solutions for the long-term management of high- level radioactive waste (or higher activity waste) in many countries. Read more
KESS 2 East Master of Research Scholarship : Application of drifter measurements to validate models of shelf sea dispersal
Project ID: BUK2E051. Annual Stipend: £11,937. Application Deadline: 5th August 2022. Applications are invited for this one-year fully-funded Masters by Research (MRes) at Bangor University, simulating and validating models of dispersal in the marine environment. Read more
Low-carbon cements! Can they work under pressure?
The challenges facing clean economic growth in the UK include industrial decarbonisation and improving resource efficiency. Read more
Lung-deposited surface area deposition of airborne nanoparticles in different environments
Airborne nanoparticles (<100nm) are the smallest fraction of particulate matter, which can penetrate deep into the lungs, and have more severe health impacts than their larger counterparts. Read more

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) - Distributed gamma dosimetry with fibre-optic cables (Cavendish Nuclear and University of Strathclyde)
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
This project will develop fibre-optic sensors for remote, distributed gamma dosimetry. The aim is to use state-of-the-art approaches in sensor hardware and software development to produce a measurement system which can distinguish between gamma ray energies over a high measurement range. Read more
Deep learning for hydrodynamic modelling of wave to soft-structure interaction
Deep learning, and particularly neural networks, have shown great versatility towards predictive modeling across a range of problems. Read more
Development of HBMIM model for 3D automatic monitoring of heritage building
Through this PhD program, it will be established a SMART monitoring system suitable for heritage buildings. Heritage buildings not only require long-term monitoring, but also have constraints that make it difficult to install sensors in the building. Read more
