FPI 2023 PhD STUDENTSHIPS @ LIFE group

Submitted by fhuera on

The Laboratory for Fluid-Structure Interaction (LIFE) (http://labfsi.com/) of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) (www.urv.cat) in Tarragona (Spain), is looking for an enthusiastic research student with a strong interest in fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interactions. Successful candidates will join a small but very active multidisciplinary team, working in several fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems.

PhD Studentships in Novel Modelling Methodologies for Hybrid and Titanium Alloys Systems Subjected to Impact Loading

Submitted by Gustavo Quino on

3.5-year D.Phil. studentship

Supervisor: Prof Nik Petrinic

 

We are seeking to recruit students for two doctoral projects arising as part of a long-term collaboration with Rolls-Royce. In particular, the projects will support future design of large gas turbine engines for civil aviation. The students will be members of the Impact Engineering Team, a large and vibrant team whose industrial sponsors are the largest global engineering organisations (see iel.eng.ox.ac.uk).

PhD Studentship: "Advanced Virtual Prototyping for Sustainable Energy Generation"

Submitted by Lee Margetts on

I have an EPSRC CASE PhD Studentship on offer that is co-funded by Alstom PLC.

There are three aims: (i) to couple ParaFEM with OpenFOAM for massively parallel fluid-structure interaction; (ii) to release that code into the community and (iii) to use the new capability to study the performance of "whole" wind farms, insilico. 

I'd appreciate it if you could forward this opportunity to colleagues who may know of good potential candidates. Apologies that the eligibility requirements for this studentship restrict it to UK/EU candidates only.

PhD position at the University of Glasgow on “Modelling of geo-engineered barriers for underground nuclear waste storage”



This project will take place at the School of Engineering of the
University of Glasgow in the UK and will be jointly supervised by Dr
Domenico Gallipoli and Dr Peter Grassl. The project will develop the
simulation tools for predicting the long-term behaviour of
geo-engineered barriers used in the geological (underground) storage of
nuclear waste. A typical geological storage scheme for nuclear waste
