Impact of impurity elements on the corrosion performance of high strength 6xxx aluminium alloys
Applications are invited for a full time EPSRC Industrial CASE PhD studentship in research on the impact of impurity elements on the corrosion performance of high strength 6xxx aluminium alloys at the Department of Materials, The University of Manchester and in collaboration with Constellium. Read more
GREENCDT Structural damage assessment using infrared detectors in fusion environments
Plasma facing components in planned fusion powerplants will experience significant structural and functional degradation in service. Read more
GREENCDT Exploration of Neutron Counting Techniques Applied to Nuclear Reactivity Measurements
When sufficient nuclear material, such as plutonium, is in close proximity, chains of fission reactions can arise. Neutrons from one fission event can induce more fissions and so on. Read more
PhD in Engineering - Semiconductor Detector Based In-situ Beta Detection at Nuclear Decommissioning Sites
James Watt School of Engineering of the University of Glasgow is seeking a highly motivated graduate to undertake an exciting 3.5-year PhD project entitled ‘Semiconductor Detector Based In-situ Beta Detection at Nuclear Decommissioning Sites’ within the Systems, Power and Energy research group. Read more
GREENCDT Development of a new solid tritium breeder blanket
Nuclear fusion offers the prospect of delivering large quantities of sustainable, low carbon energy and could play a key role in the fight against climate change. Read more
Distributed wireless remote sensing in special nuclear material storage facilities
There is a requirement to remotely monitor the condition of Special Nuclear Material (SNM) packages in multiple storage facilities across the United Kingdom. Read more
Development of Understanding of the effects of Laser Cladding on Novel Iron- Based Hardfacing Materials
Nuclear power plants are complex engineering structures with a multitude of different components required to make them operate. One area that rarely hits the headlines, but it fundamental to the operation of the plant, is tribological components such as valves and pumps. Read more
Automatic Digital Twin for Critical Nuclear Island Components Through Novel Machining Data Acquisition
In this project, you will work on a new technique to create digital twin data during machining. You will develop the technique further and work with multinational companies to apply it to critical components in the nuclear sector. Read more
Understanding the factors limiting proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers using in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM)
Background. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis is a key route to production of green hydrogen from renewable electricity. Read more
GREENCDT Hydro-geochemical evolution of bentonite buffer during infiltration of saline groundwater in a generic LSSR repository
Engineered barrier system (EBS) plays a critical role in the safety of geological disposal concepts. Bentonite is a candidate buffer/backfill material, which provides key functions within EBS. Read more
