Civil Engineering (career) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 34 Civil Engineering (career) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Economic and environmental assessment of energy systems integration for increased utilisation and reduced curtailment of offshore wind farms

This Research Project is part of the EPSRC CDT in Offshore Wind Energy Resilience and Sustainability’s Energy Economics Cluster. The CDT is a partnership between Hull, Durham, Loughborough and Sheffield universities, along with over 40 industry partners. Read more

Development of Graphene-enhanced Concrete for Real Life Construction Applications

Concrete is the most widely used construction material in the world with an annual consumption of over 10 billion cubic meters. Cement, which is the most carbon intensive constituent in concrete that contributes to about 80% of the total embodied carbon of concrete. Read more

Analysis of the evolution of cementitious materials

The chemical reactions within the binder component, and the changes in microstructure and phase composition during this process, are important factors that affect the performance of concrete. Read more

Waste Utilisation for Sustainable Resource Recovery and Carbon Capture

This project will involve the development of a novel approach that combines waste utilization and carbon capture technologies to address pressing environmental concerns and promote sustainable resource management. Read more

Fur and Feathers: colour, structure and flow control

The objective in this exciting cross-disciplinary project is to investigate the potential of a bio-inspired coating of flexible devices to passively modify energetic modes of an unsteady crossflow and to assess, for the first time, the role of colour in determining mechanical properties. Read more

Paleo-modelling of the Red Sea

The Red Sea is a semi-enclosed basin, with limited connections to the open ocean, with narrow and shallow straits operating a strong control on exchanges between the Red Sea and the wider ocean. 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

Binks Institute for Sustainability: Improving the Reliability and Economy of Anchors for Floating Offshore Wind Energy

As a part of efforts to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050, the UK offshore wind turbine capacity had reached 13.7 GW by 2022, but a higher growth rate is required to meet the target of 50 GW of installed capacity by 2030. Read more
