Digital Hydraulics for Green Hydraulic Fluid Power Machines
Hydraulic fluid power is used in a variety of sectors that are important to the UK, including robotics, transportation, oil & gas, and machinery for industry, construction and agriculture. Read more
Pulsatile flows for particle and cell collection and sorting (FAC23/EE/MPEE/AGRAWAL)
Access to healthcare diagnostic technologies in resource limited and remote regions is a significant challenge in detecting and, subsequently, treating diseases. Read more
University of Bath URSA project: Hydrogen Combustion and its Application in Net Zero Propulsion Systems
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the. University of Bath URSA competition. Project. In the foreseeable future, hydrogen will play an increasingly significant role in the transition to green economies and sustainable societies. Read more
Ocean Mixing Parameterisation via Categorisation of Nonlinear Flow Structures - Project 2: Experimental Validation
One of the key challenges for large-scale climate models is to accurately parameterise the mixing which occurs in the oceans. Such mixing occurs at small-scales, well below the grid-resolution of the climate models, and consists of the turbulent exchange of heat and salt between neighbouring regions of fluid. Read more

Modelling blood motion in deformable vessels
This project aims to introduce a novel approach in studying blood flow in deformable vessels by simultaneously considering both the fluid (blood) and the structure (vessel) through analytical and numerical approaches. Read more
Development of a computational tool for design and analysis of floating offshore wind turbines
In recent years, significant attention has been given to the development of marine renewable energy. The offshore wind energy, in particular, has experienced remarkable growth and continues to expand world-wide. Read more
Computer modelling of fluid flow within supercoolers used in the continuous casting of metals
Aim. Develop computer model of engineering process for manufacturing. Supercoolers are a key component used in the solidification of liquid metal by cooling. Read more
Computational Studies of Haemodynamic Properties in Arteriovenous Fistula and Peripheral Arteries
Understanding the haemodynamic properties in coronary artery and renal dialysis venous access (DVA) in patients will help to improve the performance and longevity of renal DVA and coronary stent which underpins the life supporting haemodialysis techniques. Read more
Combining laser and ultrasound based molecular delivery strategies for enhanced drug delivery
Overview. This project addresses the critical area of delivering therapeutics to the skin. If successful, the approach will have direct and positive consequences for the treatment of a range of skin diseases, but may also be viewed as a more generic means of drug delivery for treating a much wider range of disease.

Aerostructural optimisation of ultra-high aspect ratio wings
Supervisory Team. Prof. Ali Elham. Project description. To meet the objectives of the Paris Climate Agreement, aviation (~3% of human global CO2 emissions) must do its share. Read more
Optical monitor for gas leaks in renewable energy transportation and storage PhD
Be part of the energy revolution by joining our PhD programme in optical sensors. As the market for renewable energy increases, energy storage and transport will make increasing use of a new generation of liquefied gases. Read more
Nonequilibrium two-phase flow in disordered media: Memory, hysteresis and energy dissipation
The displacement of a fluid by another in a disordered porous material, for example migration of water and gases in soils and rocks, is often out-of-equilibrium. Read more
Investigating the role of bulk cytoplasmic flow in germ granule transport during early zebrafish embryogenesis
A 3-year doctoral studentship is available for highly motivated candidates with a background in Mathematics, Engineering and/or Physics, to work on an interdisciplinary project applying active soft matter physics to cellular activity in embryos. Read more
