Environmental Engineering (simulation) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 25 Environmental Engineering (simulation) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Simulation and optimization of the anaerobic digestion process for the production of renewable energy and valuable compounds from biodegradable wastes

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

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for Urban Air Quality Simulation and Management

This research project offers an exciting opportunity for individuals passionate about addressing the critical issue of urban air quality through cutting-edge computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques. Read more

Native tree reinforcement of slope stability during establishment at the A83 Rest and Be Thankful

This 4-year project, funded through Forest Research, aims to evaluate mechanical and hydrological mechanisms of slope stabilisation during the ongoing establishment of native tree species at A83 Rest and Be Thankful, an area prone to extensive and disruptive debris flows that are widely reported in the media. Read more

Development of a Wireless Sensor for Measuring Water Storage in Glaciers

PROJECT OVERVIEW. An exciting opportunity to develop a new instrument to study water storage in glaciers. You should have either a background in engineering or environmental science, but with a keen enthusiasm to design, build and field-test an instrument that will need to work in a harsh environment. Read more

Advanced Maintenance Management of Offshore Renewable Energy Systems

  Research Group: Communication and Networks
Renewable energy plays an importance role in the road to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, limiting the global temperature increase by up to 1.5°C by 2050. 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

Ignition and fire spread processes in the Wildland Urban Interface

This PhD project in fire science interlinks prevention and protection from wildfire risk, by focusing on providing a clearer understanding of uncontrolled fires and the conditions that cause them to arise in the wildland urban interface. Read more

Generative AI for the Next Generation of Manufacturing Automation Systems PhD

The application of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, digital twin, blockchain, and the internet of things are growing fast, and their integration with complex manufacturing systems enables effective digitalisation and automation transition. Read more

Study of turbulence in fusion technology using high fidelity simulations

A fully-funded PhD Studentship with an enhanced stipend of £2,500 for 3.5 years is available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Sheffield to study turbulence in fusion technology using advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Read more

Development of novel materials for acoustic, thermal and vibration applications

  Research Group: Centre For Sustainable Environments
One of the main environmental problems of our time is elastomeric waste pollution. Due to mismanagement or inadequate recycling practices, up to 300 million tons of elastomeric waste ends up annually in landfill, or are discharged into ecosystems, posing potential threats to aquatic and terrestrial life.
