Fluid Mechanics (selection) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 11 Fluid Mechanics (selection) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Ignition and fire spread processes in the Wildland Urban Interface

This PhD project in fire science interlinks prevention and protection from wildfire risk, by focusing on providing a clearer understanding of uncontrolled fires and the conditions that cause them to arise in the wildland urban interface. Read more

Climate resilient submerged infrastructure

Supervisory Team: Dr Gustavo de Almeida; Dr Sergio Maldonado. Project description. Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD position on the investigation of novel design methods to improve the resilience of submerged infrastructure (i.e. Read more

Multi-physics investigation of spray in a crossflow

Understanding the dynamics of particles (solid and liquid) in a crossflow is essential for many scientific investigations and engineering applications. Read more

Machine Learning and Domain Decomposition methods for Fluid Dynamics

Modelling of many modern applications leads to linear systems whose size is too large to allow the use of direct solvers. Thus, parallel solvers are becoming increasingly important in scientific computing. Read more

Development of a computational tool for design and analysis of floating offshore wind turbines

In recent years, significant attention has been given to the development of marine renewable energy. The offshore wind energy, in particular, has experienced remarkable growth and continues to expand world-wide. Read more

Climate-Optimised Aircraft Design

Supervisory Team: Edward Richardson; Ali Elham. Project description. The condensation trail (contrail) emissions of future low-CO2 aircraft will be assessed as part of a climate-optimised aircraft design methodology. Read more

Efficient Cryostasis for Transport of Liquid Hydrogen

Supervisory Team: Edward Richardson; Stephen Turnock. Project description. Liquid hydrogen (LH2) storage and transport enables flexible exploitation of potentially carbon-free energy. Read more

Improving technical efficiency in Rowing

Supervisory Team:  Dr Joseph Banks, Dr Dominic Taunton, Prof Stephen Turnock. Project description.  The sport of Rowing presents the engineer with a complex multi-physics challenge where marginal performance gains can make the difference between success and failure. Read more
