Assistant Professor (Postdoc) in Adaptive Accelerated Fatigue Testing of Thermoplastic Composites Silesian University of Technology in Poland

PhD opportunity at the University of Southampton in Mechanical Engineering , focused on enhancing power capture of tidal turbines using novel blade designs . This postgraduate research project sits within the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences and explores how tidal turbine blades can be redesigned to improve energy extraction and reduce the cost of energy from marine renewables. The topic draws inspiration from nature, wind energy, and aviation, and will build on existing Southampton ...

Western University is offering a fully funded master's research opportunity in experimental fluid mechanics and turbulence , beginning in May 2027. The project investigates the fundamental physics of turbulent shear flows, flow separation and reattachment, and bluff-body aerodynamics. The student will use experimental and analytical methods including particle image velocimetry (PIV) , force measurements, and spectral analysis to study complex flow behavior. This work is situated within the Depar...

PhD opportunity at the University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney) in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering with the Sydney Vascular Modelling Group (SVMG). This project focuses on optimising coronary stent design through computational and benchtop testing . The research combines computational fluid dynamics , patient-specific modelling , experimental biomechanics , and cardiovascular engineering to study how stent geometry affects blood flow, vessel mechanics, restenosis, thrombosis, and ves...
