Fatigue Damage Mechanism of Cable-stayed Structures under Corrosion Attack and the Quantum Technology for Corrosion Inspection and Monitoring
Directly using a series of parallel cables to support bridge decks (known as cable-stayed bridges) offers a number of advantages over traditional bridge structures, such as cantilever bridges and suspension bridges. Read more
Adaptive Infrastructure Planning – Application to UK multi-sector water systems
Problem context. When water companies propose to invest in infrastructure, both its design and the timing of its activation must be considered. Is a particular proposed infrastructure option resilient in light of plausible future climate change scenarios?. Read more
Seepage through water retaining structures; an experimental and numerical investigation
Water-retaining structures are used for different purposes however the main purpose of using them is to control movement or presence of water. Read more
Experimental and numerical investigation into the behaviour of unsaturated soils to develop a behaviour prediction model
New state-of-the-art laboratory equipment will be used to create experimental date reflecting the behaviour of unsaturated soils in various climate conditions. Read more
Moisture-induced degradation in masonry structures
Masonry structures form a significant portion of structure stock in the UK. Most of them are historic with material degradations relevant to ageing and weathering processes. Read more
A New Generation of Dam Assessment: An Artificial Intelligence Approach
A significant number of dams are in service to supply domestic and industrial water, generate hydroelectric power as well as control flood effects on the society they serve. 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
GREENCDT The impact of polyacrylamide radiolytic and microbial degradation products on the interim and long term storage of radwaste
Managing the radioactive waste inventory in the UK, is a £multibillion grand challenge. Polyacrylamide has been identified as a potential settling aid which can improve sludge settling operations in nuclear waste storage ponds on the Sellafield site, by flocculating a range of legacy fuel materials.

Construction materials and products. Investigation about embodied carbon assessment methods and solutions
Buildings consume 40% of energy produced in the world. This percentage increases to over 60% in the UK. In European countries, existing regulations limit operational energy consumption/carbon emissions and have brought to considerable savings. Read more
Digital Transformation in Construction and Lean Practices
The focus of the research is making improvement in the building delivery lifecycle with and major focus on Digital Methods and Lean efficiency gains. Read more
A nonlinear potential flow model with viscous dissipation for wave resonance in offshore engineering
In recent years, due to the increasing energy demand and fast development of technology, huge and highly integrated marine systems for offshore drilling, production, storage, loading and offloading have been developed to achieve low cost and high efficiency to meet the market requirements.
