MSc opening in applied aerodynamics and constrained wing design for small remotely piloted aircraft University of Calgary in Canada

This PhD position, titled "Aerodynamic study of a fixed-wing UAS using boundary layer control techniques," is offered jointly by the Mechatronics Group (M-Group) of KU Leuven and the Royal Military Academy in Brussels. The research is embedded within a European Defence Agency (EDA) Category B project, providing a collaborative and interdisciplinary environment that bridges fundamental research and applied engineering. The M-Group is renowned for its expertise in drone propulsion, structural desi...

Mohammed VI Polytechnic University is offering a 12-month post-doctoral position in Design, Fabrication & Testing of Bio-Inspired Drones within the GSMI/GEP research environment in Morocco. The project is centered on the design, prototyping, and experimental validation of bio-inspired UAVs , drawing ideas from the aerodynamics and adaptability of birds and bats. The successful candidate will contribute to the development of morphing-wing drone prototypes through a combination of CAD/CAE modeling...

PhD opportunity mentioned for the Bazylak group at the University of Toronto and the Higgins group at McMaster University in Canada. This post appears to be a research opportunity announcement rather than a scholarship call. The content does not specify the exact project topic, funding package, eligibility criteria, or deadline, but it clearly indicates a PhD opening connected to two Canadian research groups. Research areas/keywords: engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, mat...

York University is inviting applications for fully funded MASc and PhD positions in Mechanical Engineering, focusing on the development of structural batteries for Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (UAVs) using advanced composite materials. The project, supervised by Associate Professor Garrett Melenka and Sergii Kravchenko, aims to enhance UAV performance by integrating high-strength, lightweight composite materials such as carbon fibre and epoxy into their structures, enabling greater capacity and ...
