Universal Protein Monitoring Platform Based on Smart Holographic Sensor
This Sheffield-Singapore partnership aims at developing a universal protein monitoring platform to serve a wide range of industries (pharma, food, chemical) and to catapult protein R&D. Read more
Rapid internal heating of Lithium-ion batteries
This PhD will explore methods of rapidly heating battery cells to operational temperature, including theoretical analysis and a strong element of experimentation. Read more
Digital Twins in Cyber Security Analysis of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (DTCS-CAV)
Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technology plays a significant role in the exciting transportation revolution today in the UK, offering road safety, high efficiency, less emission and a better user experience. Read more
Sustainable car design using Bio-composite materials
Project introduction. The production and usage of today’s modern cars is a major contributor to global CO2 emissions. Although technology has moved a lot, the main processes to mass produce a car, have remained the same namely; injection moulding, stamping and casting. Read more
Intelligent sorting for urban mining to upcycle post-consumer scrap (I-Case) PhD
Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD studentship in the area of sustainable manufacturing and materials and more specifically in intelligent sorting to upcycle post-consumer metal scrap, within the . Read more
PhD in Development of an Advanced Microstructural Model for Strip Steel Phase Transformation Behaviour using Sensor Signal Feedback
Can we characterise a steels microstructure, in real-time during industrial processing non-destructively (i.e. without the need to section and use microscopy) and use this information within microstructural development models? This will be the objective for the successful PhD candidate. Read more
Advanced Teleoperator Assistance System (ATAS) for Safe Vehicle Teleoperation Under Network Latency
Details of PhD. Coventry University (CU) is inviting applications from suitably qualified graduates for a fully funded PhD studentship. Read more
Peer-sourcing AI agents for future network autonomy
All connected services across emergent edge-computing devices will run directly or indirectly from the future 6G wireless ecosystems (e.g., unmanned automotive/ship, digital twins, extended reality, etc.) In 2025, the 5G will cover more than 50% of total wireless media revenue and this grows up to about 80% in 2028. 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
Robotic and Cyber-Physical Materials
Robotic or Cyber-Physical materials use embedded sensing, actuation and control to realise novel and improved performance over conventional or passive materials [1]. Read more
Modelling of machining induced damage in Additively Manufactured aerospace parts
Additive Manufacturing techniques have attracted many attentions in the aerospace and automotive industries. This is due to the provided flexibility to generate complex geometrical features in the manufactured components. Read more
Integrating uncertainty about environmental impacts into design of future transport systems using life cycle assessment
Transportation is in transition, with new technologies such as electric vehicles, fuel cells, and hydrogen. Read more
Alkali Metal Halide Supported Alkali Metals as Gas Purification Agents
Gas purification gives access to gas feedstocks for uses such as industrial processes, transportation fuels, and cryogenics. Perhaps of greater daily impact is the importance of gas purification in the remediation of waste gases from e.g., internal combustion or semiconductor manufacture. Read more
Innovation in Ultrathin Layer Manufacturing: Electrospraying for SOFC Electrolyte/Electrode Energy Converters
Thin ceramic films are hard to manufacture, but very important in energy conversion. Electrospraying (ES) is a versatile technique which has been used to dry, crystallize, and fabricate ultrathin layers of various materials. Read more
