This project sits in the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences and is based at the Advanced Composites Manufacturing Group of iDRaM , with access to world-class facilities in the School of Mechanical Engineering and the Bragg Centre for Materials Research . The research will develop the next generation of through-thickness reinforced composites , potentially combining materials manuf...

PhD Studentship at The University of Manchester in minewater geothermal systems and closed-loop geothermal technologies . This project, titled MINELOOP: Investigating MINEwater Systems using Closed-LOOP Geothermal Technologies , focuses on how borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) and suspended high-density polyethylene U-tube systems interact with flooded minewater voids. The research aims to develop low-risk, high-performance geothermal energy solutions that can support net zero targets and local en...

PhD opportunity at the University of Southampton in turbulence, drag, rough surfaces, and fluid mechanics . This project, based in the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, investigates how roughness geometry changes turbulent boundary layers and drag. The research combines advanced wind-tunnel experiments, 3D Particle Tracking Velocimetry (PTV), and direct drag measurements to build new geometry-dependent drag models and expand an internationally used roughness database. The work is hig...
