Why join us?. ● Fully funded 4-year PhD research studentships. ● A six month training programme of taught modules in fusion energy, including materials and plasma science. Read more
Slow earthquakes remain one of the most important unexplained phenomena in fault mechanics. These ruptures are now routinely observed all over the world, often right next to or below large megathrust earthquakes. Read more
Many faults that generate earthquakes are clogged with water-saturated gouge. This granular medium likely plays a role in the fault’s response to stress. Read more
The dynamics of plate tectonics and mantle convection are inseparably coupled. Rigid oceanic plates are made from the same material as the ductile mantle below, but are much colder. Read more
Oxford’s Mechanics of Materials Lab is seeking a PhD (DPhil) student to develop a new generation of mechanistic models to understand the fatigue crack initiation behaviour of metals in hydrogen environments. Read more
10-12 fully funded 4-year studentships available. Applications for September 2025 are now OPEN. Deadlines. 12:00 midday UK time on Wednesday 29 January 2025. Read more
The Centre for Doctoral Training in Engineering Solutions for Antimicrobial Resistance is an EPSRC and BBSRC funded programme at University College London offering fully funded 4-year PhD studentships commencing in September 2025. Read more
Intense magmatism and volcanism in Jupiter’s moon Io is driven by tidal heating. Magmatic segregation from the mantle and heat-piping across the crust exports the tidal heat to space, maintaining a thermal equilibrium. Read more
Geothermal fluids are rich in heat and can hold a wealth of valuable minerals. A key challenge is finding these fluid reservoirs and assessing important parameters such as porosity, permeability and conductivity. Read more
Earth’s magnetic field is often included as a key planetary property for its habitability. This is because it is thought to protect Earth’s surface from harmful cosmic radiation, and prevents the atmosphere from being eroded by the solar wind1. Read more
