Fluid Mechanics (fluid mechanics) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 45 Fluid Mechanics (fluid mechanics) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

PhD post in Fluid Mechanics- Experimental modelling of plastic transport in floods

Applications are open for a PhD scholarship at Imperial College London to start by October 2024 (flexible). The PhD project will tackle the transport of plastic (and other litter) during extreme flood conditions. Read more

Effects of flexible vegetation on oscillatory flow hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics

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

Experimental Aerodynamics and Environmental Flows

Supervisory Team.   Dr Christina Vanderwel. Project description. Join our world-leading experimental fluid mechanics research group with this PhD studentship studying Experimental Aerodynamics and Environmental Flows. Read more

Advanced computational modelling of nanobubble cavitation dynamics

Rapid changes in pressure, such as in high-frequency ultrasound, can stimulate bubbles to nucleate, oscillate, and collapse violently, in a phenomenon known as cavitation. Read more

Microbubble Coalescence in Turbulence

Supervisory Team.   Dr John Lawson. Project description. Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD position on applying computer vision (CV) and machine learning (ML) approaches to experimentally measure and model coalescence in turbulent dispersed multiphase flow. 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

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

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

Fluid flow in porous media with application to CCUS and energy storage

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

Optimisation of impinging jets for reduction of deposit formation

We are excited to offer a fully funded PhD opportunity in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Sheffield for someone with a passion for computational fluid dynamics modelling. Read more
Last chance to apply

Multi-Phase Fluid Dynamics of Medicines During Transit

Supervisory Team: Ivo Peters, Tim Waters. Project description. The increasing use of drones and electric bikes offers exciting new opportunities for bespoke and efficient transportation of medical products. Read more

Electrochemo-mechanics modeling and characterization

We are actively recruiting FULLY-FUNDED 2-3 Ph.D. students for electrochemo-mechanics modeling of lithium-ion batteries. The length scale spans from atomic, molecular, and continuum levels (covering energy materials, electrode, cell, module, pack and electric vehicles). Read more

Ocean Mixing Parameterisation via Categorisation of Nonlinear Flow Structures - Project 2: Experimental Validation

One of the key challenges for large-scale climate models is to accurately parameterise the mixing which occurs in the oceans. Such mixing occurs at small-scales, well below the grid-resolution of the climate models, and consists of the turbulent exchange of heat and salt between neighbouring regions of fluid. Read more
