PhD in Circular Lifecycle Knowledge for Aerospace Titanium University of Southampton in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Leicester in the Alloy Design & Phase Transformations Research Group with Dr Gebril El-Fallah . This project focuses on austenitic steels , thermal expansion , high-temperature strength , metallurgy , solid state physics , and machine learning . The research asks whether magnetic behaviour can be engineered to reduce thermal expansion in steels while preserving strength and stability for structural service in advanced energy systems. You will study how alloy ...

PhD opportunity at Loughborough University in additive manufacturing of titanium alloys , hosted at AMPLab@Loughborough and supervised by Professor Moataz Attallah . The project is delivered in collaboration with a major aerospace manufacturer and sits at the interface of academic research and industry. The research will focus on improving the performance of additively manufactured titanium alloys, with emphasis on microstructure control , mechanical performance , and process optimisation . This...

Dr Tony Murmu at the University of the West of Scotland is sharing PhD opportunities linked to the Aerospace-H2 Hydrogen Group and research on hydrogen aviation , liquid-hydrogen storage , composite structures , cryogenic materials , structural integrity , finite-element modelling , and AI-enabled aerospace design . The post highlights a new publication on the thermal-structural design and assessment of a composite liquid-hydrogen tank for regional aircraft applications , with the ATR 72-212A us...

PhD Studentship: Development of a Digital Twin for Smart Sustainable Steel Section Production This PhD studentship is based at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom , within the Advanced Steel Research Centre at WMG . The project sits with the Digital Twins team and focuses on building a digital twin for steel section production , combining empirical modelling, finite element analysis, and machine learning to predict microstructural evolution and mechanical properties across the steelm...

The University of Warwick is offering a PhD studentship on NSF Swarf: A Novel Forging Process for Closed-Loop Recycling of Metallic Swarf . This project sits within the Advanced Steel Research Team and explores how machining waste can be transformed back into valuable material through a patented near-solidus forging approach. Machining can remove 60–90% of a component’s material, creating large amounts of swarf that are often discarded and mixed with lower-grade waste. The Warwick process propos...
