We have 88 composite PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Tailoring the Thermomechanical Properties of High Performance Aerospace & Automotive Composite Materials

Interested in high performance, lightweight composite materials? Take advantage of the fact that companies in the aerospace and automotive sectors are currently looking for good materials scientists and engineers with a composites PhD!. Read more

Additive Manufacturing of High-Performance Composite Materials

This research project offers an exciting opportunity for individuals interested in advancing the field of materials processing science, specifically in the realm of additive manufacturing (AM) of high-performance composite materials. Read more

Optimal Design of Fibre Reinforced Composite Pipes and Umbilicals

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

Monitoring and evaluation of composite pipes using structural waves

Supervisory Team.   Dr Michal Kalkowski, Prof Michele Meo. Project description. We invite applications for a PhD position in the field of non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of composite pipes. Read more

Composite Structures

Composite structures are extraordinarily versatile. They have been used across mechanical, aerospace, civil engineering sectors in a range of applications (airframes, new car configurations, etc). Read more

Through-thickness reinforcement compatible conductive polymer filaments PhD

Composite through-thickness reinforcement techniques are typically used to bolster through-thickness behaviour, composite’s primary weakness, but the integration of through-thickness elements for embedding electrical and thermal functionality is a fast-growing area of research. Read more

Enhancement of electrical conductivity of carbon fibre composite for resisting lightening strike on aircrafts

In the structure of new advanced civil aircrafts the main fuselage structures are being redesigned to use carbon fibre-reinforced composites (CFRP) mainly due to their lightweight, high specific stiffness and strength. Read more

4D printed composite morphing structures

4D printed actuators transform energy into mechanical motion in response to specific stimuli. They are employed to conduct a range of unique tasks such as self-assembling, and conceive compact systems with a low manufacturing and maintenance costs. Read more

Three-dimensional hybrid composites for repair and recycling PhD

This PhD research opportunity focuses on the development of self-healing three-dimensional metal-composite hybrid materials. These will use through-thickness reinforcement to embed metallic elements, acting as a means of targeted heat introduction, to activate re-processable matrices like thermoplastics or vitrimers. Read more

Soft & Crystalline Composite Materials: Developing Total Scattering Workflows for the Interrogation of Structure.

An exciting interdisciplinary project for an enthusiastic student to develop a broad range of expertise, combining the experimental and computationally-based characterisation of advanced composite materials. Read more

Computational Mechanics of Fracture on Advanced Composite Aerospace Structures

Over the last decade there has been a significant increase in the use of composite laminates in the aerospace industry in a drive to reduce weight and as a result to reduce emissions. Read more
