EPSRC/NNL - Upscaling fundamental controls on fluid migration in the Mercia Mudstone Group based on 3D multi-scale imaging and modelling
Objective. The main objective of this PhD project is to better understand and upscale the fundamental controls on fluid migration in the Mercia Mudstone Group based on 3D multi-scale imaging, modelling of large 3D data sets, and the application of machine learning approaches. Read more
Climate change impacts (and variability) on livelihoods and key sectors of the economy / economic models
Several International reports (E.g. IPCC) identify climate change as one of the defining global challenges during recent times. 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
GREENCDT Environmental radiochemistry to support criticality safety of nuclear waste disposal: investigating the co-mobility of actinides and neutron poisons
A fully-funded PhD studentship is available to a graduate with interests in radiochemistry and radioactive waste challenges. Disposal of nuclear legacy waste is one of the biggest scientific and engineering challenges of the 21st Century. Read more
Physical and chemical signals of degassing and vesiculation during magma ascent at ocean island volcanoes
Research Group:
Geoscience
Magmatic volatiles provide the driving force for volcanic eruptions through the positive feedbacks between gas exsolution and bubble growth during magma ascent. 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
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
Measuring the elastic properties of single-crystal and composite materials
The elastic properties of solids are vital to understanding many physical phenomena, from the propagation of phonons to the dynamics of phase transitions. 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.

Numerical modelling and design of geothermal heat recovery from subsurface systems
Research Group:
Multiscale Modelling
Sedimentary basins are ubiquitous, naturally porous and permeable, and the geothermal heat in these basins can be extracted with geologic water or CO. Read more
