Understanding and forecasting airflow in enclosed/indoor environments is of great interest due to its close relationship to occupant’s safety, thermal comfort, and energy efficiency. Optimally...
a) Understanding the motion of Floating Production Storage and Offloading or FPSO units in high sea states is important for safe operations in the oil...
Modelling fluid-solid multiphase flows in environmental systems are complicated by the range of scales between those controlling turbulent suspension of particulate material and the size...
Spraying is ubiquitous and finds application within delivery of materials (e.g. paints, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, personal-care products) to surfaces (e.g. crops, fabrics, skin). The spraying process...
Particles present in liquid dispersions may agglomerate to form larger fractal structures under various conditions. Such ‘flocs’ are ubiquitous in many industries and the natural...
CFD Simulations of large scale meteorology are increasingly important in understanding weather phenomena, but the scale of the simulations often makes manual interpretation difficult. Recently,...
Liquid jets are widely encountered from printing to ‘big industry’ which use jets for a range of applications including decontaminating surfaces (buildings, reactors etc.). In...
The design of hydraulic infrastructure such as reservoir spillways, weirs and other critical structures is an area of significant importance from a safety and cost...
The turbulent behaviour of clouds is responsible for many of the uncertainties regarding the timing and intensity of precipitation in weather and climate models. One...
We propose an exciting PhD opportunity to develop the research foundation for this PhD to make sure all objectives can be achieved. The PhD project...
