Hybrid Technologies for Battery Thermal Management Using Smart Materials

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Electric vehicles (EVs) are powered by lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with many advantages such as high specific energy, long cycle life, wide range of operating temperature, and low self-discharge rates. Read more

Optoelectronic chromatic dispersion in photodiodes: Physics and applications in optical sensing and spectroscopy

We are developing a new class of miniaturized optical sensors based on a groundbreaking technology that we have developed. We have discovered that standard PN-junction photodiodes possess huge effective chromatic dispersion, which we call optoelectronic chromatic dispersion (OED). Read more

Microwave Characterisation and Modelling of Novel Materials for Shielding and Stealth

Monash Engineering is a leading global centre for research consistently placing highly in international ranking lists. We engage with industry and other world leading institutes to carry out pioneering research that benefits society and changes the world around us. Read more

Programming Colloidal Self-Assembly for Advanced Materials

A PhD place is available with Dr Dwaipayan Chakrabarti in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham on a project themed on designing and developing colloidal advanced materials, using high-performance computing, underpinned by theories of statistical mechanics and wave propagation in periodic structures. Read more

Theremoelectric Nanomaterials for Energy Recovery

Thermoelectric materials offer the unique capability to convert waste heat directly into electrical energy. Efficiency is related to a figure of merit (ZT S2sT/k), that is determined by the Seebeck coefficient (S), electrical conductivity (s) and thermal conductivity (k). Read more

Inspired by nature: sulfide minerals as sustainable and efficient thermoelectric materials

We have a vacancy for a PhD student to join a project at the forefront of research in thermoelectric materials, which can be used in devices for the direct conversion of waste heat into electrical power. Read more

Vapour Deposited Perovskites for High Performance Multi-Junction Photovoltaic Devices

Metal-halide perovskite based solar cells have now achieved a light to electricity conversion efficiency of 26.1%, making them the leading emerging thin-film solar cell material. Read more

Novel nanocomposites based on green resin chemistries reinforced with 2D nanofillers and natural fibres

Applications are invited for a fully funded studentship to start in October 2024. About the project. Nanocomposites based on thermosetting resin matrices are one of the most promising lightweight materials to replace metal components and reduce energy and greenhouse gas emissions in the transport industries. Read more

Locking CO2 into cement: new perspectives from advanced spectroscopic techniques

EPSRC DTP studentship in Engineering. 3.5 years starting 1st October 2024, 1st January 2025 or 1st April 2025. Project Summary. Our aim is to improve carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) in the cement and concrete industry by introducing reactive carbonates to replace clinkers. Read more
