PhD in Soundscapes, Environmental or Neighbour Noise
Research Group:
Acoustics Research Centre
Noise is the second most harmful environmental pollutant according to the World Health Organisation. It is also “neglected” and in need of more research according to a 2023 House of Lords Report. Read more

PhD in Psychoacoustic modelling for complex soundscapes
Description of specific topics. You will focus on one of the following. 1. Development of psychoacoustic models (basic psychoacoustic research). Read more
Developing optical beamshaping approaches for optical trapping and optical tweezering of aerosols
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Optimising Air Source Heat Pump Placement to Minimise Community Noise and Vibration Impact
Research Group:
Acoustics Research Centre
Background. Read more
3D imaging of brain blood flow using ultrasound
Imaging blood flow in the brain is crucial to diagnose neurological disorders such as strokes and aneurysms, understand their root causes, and develop better treatments. Read more
Audio for Virtual and Augmented Reality
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
Recent developments in low cost VR displays have led to a resurgence of research into binaural 3-D audio. Whilst a good 3-D audio experience can be given using the state of the art technologies, there are still many problems to be solved. Read more
Real-time Networked based Musical Interaction in virtual immersive environments
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
There is a high demand for making and consuming live music over networked based systems. Virtual recording studios, performance venues and rehearsal spaces are within our technological grasp, bridging gaming technologies, low latency networking and immersive audio strategies. Read more
Sonars for precise underwater autonomous vehicle (AUV) navigation.
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
There is a great interest in underwater autonomous vehicles (AUVs) and currently many companies develop AUVs for multiple applications. Read more
Machine learning in underwater acoustic communication modems
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
Machine learning is an approach that is useful when a practical optimisation problem is difficult to describe precisely. This approach has found multiple applications. Read more
Influence of listener movement on tonality and spatial quality in adaptive immersive surround sound systems
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
Whilst there is a significant body of work that focuses on the spatial quality and tonality of immersive surround sound systems for a sweet spot position, these qualities under a dynamic listening scenario (i.e. Read more
Improvements in headphone based 3-D audio using adaptive binaural signal processing and robust head-tracking
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
Design of immersive binaural surround systems requires an understanding of the perceptual cues for sound source localisation. Any source at a given angle of incidence to the head will create subtle time and level difference cues at the ears and is subject to spectral shaping due to the pinnae. Read more
High-frequency underwater acoustic communication for image transmission.
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
Communication using acoustic waves is the main underwater communication technology, since electro-magnetic waves quickly attenuate underwater. Read more
High data rate adaptive underwater acoustic networks
Research Group:
Communication Technologies
The ocean plays a key role in supporting all living organisms on our planet, yet the vast majority of the ocean remains unmapped and unobserved. Read more
