Mechanical Engineering (wave) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 21 Mechanical Engineering (wave) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

On Analysis and Design of Submerged Wave Energy Devices

We invite applications for a Ph.D. position in Marine Hydrodynamics and Ocean Engineering at the University of Dundee, Scotland. The project aims in analyzing new generation of wave energy devices that are fully submerged, namely an Oscillating Submerged Disc, and a Wave Carpet. Read more

Hydrodynamics of wave powered ships

Supervisory Team.   Dr N.C. Townsend, Prof D.A. Hudson and Dr J.A. Bowker (industrial). Project description. Wave energy can be used to improve the performance of ships and boats. Read more

Effects of flexible vegetation on oscillatory flow hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics

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

Flame and Acoustic Wave Interactions

Thermoacoustic instability is an unresolved problem in combustion devices such as gas turbine and jet engine. When the acoustic pressure is coupled with the heat release fluctuation, very strong oscillation may occur, which may even damage the hardware component to cause high losses. Read more

Elastic wave propagation

We have built our world out of steel, concrete, and other stiff solids. How well these structures endure depends on the tension and strains they are under, which are closely related to the material’s elastic behaviour. Read more

Computational Fluid-Structure Interaction with Turbulent and Multiphase flows

Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems involving turbulent and multiphase flows and flexible structures find numerous applications in Science and Engineering, e.g., aeroelasticity of aircraft wings and wind turbine blades, wave-structure interactions of offshore structures, flexible wave energy converters, floating solar farms, and flight of birds and insects.

Dynamic Analysis of Power Cables in Floating Wind Turbines

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
