EPSRC FIBE3 CDT MRes/PhD Studentship in Rainfall-Induced Slope Failure Risk University of Cambridge in United Kingdom

Imperial College London is advertising a PhD project on coastal cliff instability due to extreme weather conditions , based in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering in London, United Kingdom. The project investigates how climate change , extreme drying , and heatwaves may trigger coastal cliff failure, with a focus on the hydromechanical response of unsaturated coastal geomaterials (especially the Mercia Mudstone Group). The research combines advanced laboratory element testing wit...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in Climate Resilience of Infrastructure to Rainfall (PGR-P-1395), supervised by Professor David Connolly in the School of Civil Engineering . This project focuses on how climate change-driven rainfall affects transport, geotechnical, and structural infrastructure. Research themes include rainfall-induced slope collapse, geotechnical instability, soil shrink-swell cycles, water ponding on roofs and bridge decks, structural overloading, drainage, and adap...

National University of Singapore is inviting applications for a Research Fellow position in Geotechnical Engineering , focused on an innovative underground reservoir and coastal protection project in Singapore . The research addresses freshwater scarcity, land limitation, seawater intrusion, and erosion risks in reclaimed coastal areas. The project explores the use of seepage cut-off walls to create underground reservoirs in reclaimed sand layers while also protecting coastal land from seawater ...
