Three-dimensional hybrid composites for repair and recycling PhD

This PhD research opportunity focuses on the development of self-healing three-dimensional metal-composite hybrid materials. These will use through-thickness reinforcement to embed metallic elements, acting as a means of targeted heat introduction, to activate re-processable matrices like thermoplastics or vitrimers.

Functional composites through hybridisation PhD

Advanced continuous carbon fibre reinforced polymer composites, offer a very attractive combination of mechanical properties, environmental resistance and lightweight which make them a superior choice for high performance applications. Read more

Advances in Sustainable Structural Materials – An Experimental and Numerical Investigation to Assess the Structural Performance of Timber Concrete Composites

In an age where climate change is at the top of the agenda, engineers have been pushed to find novel techniques of constructing not only for a global population with exponential growth, but in such a manner to ensure sustainably throughout the whole construction process. Read more

Advanced Composites Structures FEA/CFD Modelling Design and Manufacturing

Introduction. The most common composite material consists of carbon or glass fibres that are bonded together with a polymer matrix and are often referred to as carbon or glass fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP or GFRP). Read more

Fatigue and Fracture of Fibre Composites

Aircraft manufacturers are now competing based on their aircraft’s fuel efficiency due to the high cost of aviation fuel. As a result, in recent years, these manufacturers have turned more and more to the use of lightweight composites in their designs for almost every component of their aircraft. Read more

Novel interphases for ceramic composites: a high-throughput approach

The Department of Materials at Imperial College London, as part of the new CDT in Materials 4.0, is looking for a candidate to undertake a PhD project in the field of Ceramic Matrix Composites for the next generation of aero-engines and fusion reactors. Read more

Advanced Computational Methodologies for Smart Multifunctional Composites

Smart multifunctional composites (MFCs) such as electroactive polymers, magnetoactive polymers, hydrogels, photosensitive polymers, liquid-crystal elastomers etc., are increasingly being used for various applications in soft robotics, precision drug delivery, tactile sensors and shape morphing.
