Design of Smart Manufacturing Systems for Industry 4.0
New Industry 4.0 technologies such as cyber-physical systems, internet of things, big data, and digital twins are radically altering the way that manufacturing systems are designed and production is performed. Read more
Advanced 3D imaging of composite materials and structures
Supervisory Team. Ian Sinclair, Thomas Blumensath, Mark Mavrogordato. Project description. Polymer matrix composites are a core light-weighting technology across virtually all transport sectors (aerospace, automotive, marine), providing a vital element of net-zero carbon objectives for the future. Read more
Energy Storage Modelling
Supervisory Team. Prof. Andy Cruden & Dr Richard Wills. Project description. Applications are invited for a fully-funded PhD studentship to investigate the electrical, thermal and economic modelling of a range of electrical energy storage types (e.g. Read more
Use of recycled concrete materials from nuclear decommissioning for sustainable nuclear waste management
What would you do with the vast amount of concrete wastes arising from decommissioning of closed nuclear facilities? This project focus on the recycling of such materials. Read more
Enhancing Performance of Structural Materials for Nuclear Applications Through Optimising Grain Refinement in Forming and Heat Treatment
In this project, you will develop a predictive model of the material response to high temperature processing. You will need to develop skills for both forming and heat treatment simulation in addition to an in depth understanding of the physical metallurgy of steels for the nuclear sector. Read more
Automatic Digital Twin for Critical Nuclear Island Components Through Novel Machining Data Acquisition
In this project, you will work on a new technique to create digital twin data during machining. You will develop the technique further and work with multinational companies to apply it to critical components in the nuclear sector. Read more
PhD in Developing Novel Laser-driven X-ray Sources for Industrial Imaging
X-ray imaging originated as a medical diagnostic tool, but it is now used widely throughout industry as a means of non-destructive testing. Read more
