Process Development for Size and Shape Manipulation of Elongated Crystals
What is the PhD Project About?. This project will address one of the key challenges in crystallization process development. Crystallization is a separation and purification technique that is widely employed in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries. Read more
Probing confinement effects in catalytic systems
Research Group:
Catalysis and Porous Materials
Candidates are invited to apply for a PhD in the area of structure-activity relationships in catalytic processes for the development of industrial applications. Read more
Structure evolution in complex alloys by analysis of combinatorial complexes
The last couple of decades have been a period of active development and manufacture of new complex-structured bulk materials, such as TWIP steels, nickel superalloys and high-entropy alloys for novel applications in energy and transport industries. Read more
Investigating the physio-chemical behaviour of fission products within nuclear grade graphite
It is now widely accepted that nuclear power has an integral role to play in the UK, if the ambitious targets of reaching net-zero are to be achieved. Read more
Examining machine learning in a digital physical activity intervention to predict and prevent falls in older adults: a mixed methods feasibility study
Falls often lead to injuries and are a risk to morbidity and mortality across all age groups. Read more
Study for a fully-funded PhD or EngD in Advanced Metallic Systems to explore innovative materials and manufacturing routes to increase sustainability and performance
We welcome applications from highly motivated individuals working across an Engineering discipline or a STEM (science, technology, engineering, maths) subject. Read more
EPSRC CDT in Nuclear Energy - GREEN (Growing skills for Reliable Economic Energy from Nuclear)
The GREEN CDT is a consortium of the five universities of Lancaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield, which aims to train the next generation of expert nuclear scientists and engineers. Read more
Understanding tritium behaviour in plasma facing materials for nuclear fusion applications
Nuclear fusion offers the potential for low carbon, sustained electricity generation. This is predicated on the production and availability of fuel within the reactor. Read more
Deep learning assisted imaging analysis and upscaling (Digital Rock Manchester)
Multi-scale and dynamic imaging techniques have been demonstrated to be one of the powerful tools in materials characterisation. However, the images cannot always satisfy the scientific of industrial requirement. Read more
Multi-scale characterisation of the subsurface system for decarbonation energy (Digital Rock Manchester)
The subsurface system can act as a large-scale, low-cost and safe system for huge storage for either energy or waste, which provides provide important solutions to carbon management in order to tackle the global climate crisis and meet the Net-Zero target. Read more
EPSRC CDT in Science and Applications of Graphene and Related Nanomaterials (Graphene NOWANO)
Applications are invited for fully funded studentships to start in September 2023. Funding Information. Full funding is available to Home Students. Read more
Multifidelity models for uncertainty quantification, optimization and prediction in turbulent flows
Obtaining high-fidelity accurate data for turbulent flows using numerical simulations and laboratory experiments is challenging considering the cost and technical restrictions. Read more
Flexible microfluidics
This experimentally focused PhD project will explore how fluid-structure interactions can be harnessed for passive control of fluids, cargos and channel geometry in micro-scale fluidic devices. Read more
Understanding the factors limiting proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers using in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
Background. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis is a key route to production of green hydrogen from renewable electricity. Read more
Membrane based technology to intensify the sustainable production of chemicals
Research Group:
Catalysis and Porous Materials
