About the project
This project will explore how Multiphysics aspects, including heat transfer, fluid flow, structural mechanics and acoustics, can be effectively modelled, understood and integrated into the design of advanced acoustic control technologies that are required across automotive, maritime, aerospace and built environment applications.
Are you looking for an exciting opportunity to work at the forefront of cross-disciplinary engineering research with a focus on acoustic control technologies and the Multiphysics challenges associated with their real-world design and application?
Are you interested in developing cutting-edge technologies that offer high-performance and lightweight acoustic control solutions that directly support sustainability, whilst considering competing engineering challenges associated their real-world deployment?
Would you like to develop your skills as a researcher and kick-start a career in engineering innovation within a dynamic, supportive and collaborative team?
We are offering a fully-funded PhD studentship, with enhanced financial support from a large industrial partner, to pursue doctoral research exploring the Multiphysics challenges associated with advanced acoustic control technologies as part of a large project jointly funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering. The project will be carried out using a range of numerical and experimental techniques and provide the successful candidate with significant opportunities to develop a variety of research and engineering skills relevant to careers in both academia and industry. You will also benefit from inclusion in the new MOD/EPSRC CDT in Complex Integrated Systems for Defence & Security, which offers significant opportunities for interdisciplinary working, collaboration and networking.
