Design of Programmable Mechanical Metamaterials (Ref: UF-AZ-2024)
Metamaterials are artificially engineered materials with unique properties not found in natural substances. These materials offer remarkable capabilities in load carrying, dynamic impact, wave propagation control, and other physical phenomena. Read more
Cell Mechanics and Tumour Growth (Ref: UF-YL-2024)
Although plenty of cancer research is in the field of cancer cell biology, there is lack of knowledge that can cascade the biological theory to those measurable parameters that can be obtained non-destructive and in real-time at clinical level, i.e. Read more
Super-Smart Textiles: A Self-Powered Wearable Technology for Remote Health Monitoring (Ref: UF-ID-2024)
According to the World Health Organisation, over 1 billion of the global population suffer from disabilities. However, access to rehabilitation care has been a global issue due to lack of resources including infrastructure and trained professionals. Read more
Mechanics of materials (Ref: UF-VS-2024)
In the last decades, Mechanics of Materials as a discipline has experienced a type of revival. The main reason for this has been a continuing introduction of new materials (or even their classes) with extraordinary microstructures, properties and performance. Read more
Mechanics of biomaterials (Ref: UF-VS-2024-1)
Understanding mechanical properties and performance of various biological materials and tissues and their responses to different loading and environmental conditions is becoming increasingly important for development of new medical procedures and devices. Read more
Dynamic deformation, damage and fracture of composites (Ref: UF-VS-2024-2)
In the recent years, the use of composite materials has demonstrated a continuing increase in aerospace, wind-energy, transportation, naval, defence and sports systems and products. Read more
Enhancing the long-term performance of advanced engine materials by controlling microstructure
Structural materials used in modern engineering applications are more than ever today subjected to extreme loading and environmental conditions. Read more
Modelling slip bands and short crack growth in Ni-based superalloys using discrete crystal plasticity
In metal fatigue, microplastic strain localisation leads to the formation of discrete slip bands, which contribute to the initiation and propagation of short cracks. Read more
An integrated approach for damage identification in composite materials
Non-destructive inspection based on acoustics is today one of the primary methods for the identification of damage precursors in components and structures. Read more
Hybrid Machining of Metal Matrix Composites: A Multi-Material, Multi-Scale Approach
Metal matrix composites (MMCs) offer superior strength-to-weight ratios, making them ideal for aerospace and automotive applications. Read more
Cellular Automaton to Model Rapid Crystal Growth and Recrystallisation
Texture in materials plays a crucial role in metallic products. A thorough study of the underlying morphology and its evolution is relevant for producing cast parts of innovative technological products. Read more
A Multiscale Investigation of Dislocation-Grain Boundary Interactions in next generation alloys
The goal of this project is to develop a multiscale framework that incorporates continuum dislocation mechanics (CDM) with grain boundary mechanics to understand the interplay between dislocations and grain boundaries (GBs) in metallic alloys. . Read more
Fully funded PhD studentships in Resilient Infrastructure
The School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering aims to be the world's leading integrated centre for built environment research, education, and learning, and is committed to investing in the next generation of exceptional researchers. Read more
