Engineering (embedded) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 86 Engineering (embedded) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
Composite Materials with integrated ‘‘massless’’ energy storage for use in civil and mobile applications such as electric vehicles, drones, and composite planes
Nowadays in electric cars, batteries, contribute a large part of the vehicle's weight, which means additional footprinting and load bearing function. Read more

Artificial Intelligence enabled Distributed Edge-Centric Cellular Networks
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
Today, wireless cellular networks rely heavily on the core network to deliver services. This introduces latency and other inefficiencies. Next generation networks will be much more edge centric, enabling ultra-reliable low latency (URLLC) services to be delivered. This requires a fundamental rethink in how edge-centric cellular networks should be delivered. Read more
