Overview
Chair of Group: Professor AJ Keane
The CED Group carries out multi-disciplinary research using a range of analytical, computational, and experimental techniques and its strength lies in this sophisticated mix of engineering methods coupled to industrial applications.
The group hosts the Southampton Regional e-Science Centre, the Rolls Royce University Technology Centre for Computational Engineering and the Microsoft Institute for High Performance Computing. It is housed in a recently refurbished and dedicated building that is equipped with numerous workstations, video conferencing facilities and high speed parallel and clustered processor systems. Activities include the use of computational methods for studying design and related problems in fluids, structures, control systems and biomechanics, evolutionary optimisation, construction of advanced cost prediction systems, optimisation of meta-modelled, approximate or noisy systems and analysis of robustness.
We seek to recruit high calibre research students into our research group each year, to find out which PhD projects are currently being offered please view our Postgraduate Admissions page.
