Effect of Mechanical Strain on Water Treeing Mechanism of Dynamic Cable for Floating Offshore Wind Applications
Offshore wind energy is central to UK’s ambition of transitioning to a sustainable future electricity grid. The growth in power generation from floating wind turbines are increasingly further away from shore and utilising the floating wind turbine support structures. Read more
Control and operation of advanced modular chemical looping process
The deployment of next-generation chemical processes requires the implementation of new equipment and materials that will enhance the performance in terms of economics and environmental performance. Read more
Next Generation Fusion Power – Developing Additive Material Repair Processes for Remote In-Situ Operation – University of Manchester & RACE @ UKAEA
A fully-funded PhD studentship is available at Manchester University, working in close collaboration within the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Materials and Department of Engineering for Sustainability and RACE/UKAEA. Read more
Development of New fuels Assemblies for Advanced Nuclear Technologies
This PhD project is part of a wider project on ‘New Fuel Assemblies for Advanced Nuclear’ in collaboration with the University of Oxford, Bangor University, MIT and the UK National Nuclear Laboratory. Read more
Multifidelity models for uncertainty quantification, optimization and prediction in turbulent flows
Obtaining high-fidelity accurate data for turbulent flows using numerical simulations and laboratory experiments is challenging considering the cost and technical restrictions. Read more
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
Structure evolution in complex alloys by analysis of combinatorial complexes
The last couple of decades have been a period of active development and manufacture of new complex-structured bulk materials, such as TWIP steels, nickel superalloys and high-entropy alloys for novel applications in energy and transport industries. Read more
Development of experimental and simulation capability for the analysis of thrust air foil bearing systems, including thermal studies
Oil-free turbomachinery (OFT) is an emerging technology defined as high speed rotating machinery operating without oil lubrication, relying instead on “air foil” bearings (AFBs, also known as gas foil bearings or foil air bearings). OFT research is motivated by technological and environmental benefits for diverse applications e.g. Read more
Polymer Processing in a Circular Plastics Economy
The Sustainable Materials Innovation Hub within the Department of Materials at the University of Manchester and housed in the Henry Royce Institute is seeking enthusiastic and collaborative polymer chemists or engineers to develop the next generation of sustainable polymers. Read more
A Scaled Framework for Impact and Blast Induced Traumatic Brain Injury Risk Assessment
Despite recent efforts to understand impact and blast induced traumatic brain injury (TBI), there are still no widely accepted injury criteria for humans which highly restrict using of numerical methods. Read more
Investigating the physio-chemical behaviour of fission products within nuclear grade graphite
It is now widely accepted that nuclear power has an integral role to play in the UK, if the ambitious targets of reaching net-zero are to be achieved. Read more
Aircraft Noise Auralisation for Advanced Air Mobility
Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is a new air transport system concept involving new, transformational aircraft designs and flight technologies to move people… Read more
Bio-informed control for physical human-robot interaction in collaborative tasks
Robots have demonstrated their superiority in increasing productivity, efficiency, and consistency across various industries, especially in factory settings. Read more
GREENCDT Dispersion Fuel Manufacturing Studies
With the renewed interest in non-UO. 2. fuel for light water reactors there is a good opportunity to re-examine alternative fuel forms, as opposed to the traditional UO. Read more
