Fluid Mechanics (behaviour) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 30 Fluid Mechanics (behaviour) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Behaviour of Granular Materials

Granular materials such as sand, snow, rice, ores, powders and soils are prevalent in nature and industry. Understanding the way they deform, fail, flow and mix is key to predict events such as landslides, erosion, earthquakes and snow avalanches. Read more

Droplet Impacts with Functional Surfaces

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Physics-based Multi-scale Modelling of Multi-Material Additive Manufacturing

Project Details. Additive manufacturing (AM) is emerging as a promising alternative for designing multi-material parts for complex geometries in engineering applications; especially in the biomedical sector. Read more

Experimental Investigation of Singular Two-phase Pressure Losses Relevant to Nuclear System Thermal-hydraulic Applications

A fully funded 4-year EPSRC ICASE PhD Studentship, co-sponsored by Westinghouse, is available in the Nuclear Futures Institute at Bangor University to design and perform experiments at the THOR loop to measure two-phase pressure drop across selected simple geometrical singularities within a relevant range of conditions. Read more

Microfluidic-assisted particle manipulation in complex fluid environments for biomedical and engineering applications

We are delighted to offer two new PhD positions (one experimental and one numerical) on “particle manipulation in complex fluid environments for biomedical and engineering applications” at Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering - University of Strathclyde. Read more

CFD simulation of a perforated rotating bucket in the prilling process

  Research Group: Advanced Materials Engineering
Prilling is a finishing process in chemical and petrochemical industries for producing reasonably uniform spherical particles from molten solutions of chemicals such as urea or ammonium nitrate. Read more

Exploring the Interplay of Computational Mechanics, Fluid Dynamics, and Thermal Analysis in Engineering Systems

Our research group in school of Engineering Technology and Design (ETD) at Canterbury Christ Church University (CCCU) focuses on cutting edge projects at intersection of computational mechanics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), thermal analysis and fluid-structure interaction (FSI). Read more

Thermal hydraulics modelling of low-pressure, light water-cooled Small Modular Reactors

The Low-Pressure Water Reactor (LPWR) is a 300MW(e) pool-type water-cooled Small Modular Reactor (SMR) design in which the nuclear core is located at the bottom of a deep underground shaft instead of inside a pressure vessel. Read more

Foam improved oil recovery

Typically in oil and gas production, only a small fraction of the oil present manages to flow out of an oil reservoir under the reservoir’s own pressure. Read more

Electronically Controlled Adaptive AM Heat Exchanger (eHEX)

Electronically Controlled Adaptive AM Heat Exchanger (eHEX). The Postgraduate Research Programme Innovation in Digital Manufacturing and Design (IDMD) offers 12 PhD research scholarships in 12 separate projects to commence in 2024. Read more
