Please note that the PhD projects listed are examples of projects offered to current CDT students and as such are not generally available to prospective students.
The discovery and partial characterisation of several thousand planets orbiting stars other than the Sun is probably the most exciting development in modern astrophysics. Observations indicate...
This project aims to investigate the effectiveness of a novel flow control device to treat single ventricle heart defects, using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations...
This project will understand how extreme rainfall over the United Kingdom may change under future climate change and assess the impact on future flood episodes....
Ocean floor channels on slopes are the main conduits for particulate transfer from continents to oceans. Modern erosionally-confined systems form complicated geomorphologies, but their erosional...
Motivated by the Boxing Day 2015 floods, we aim to improve flood mitigation using active flood control given rainfall and river level data as well...
The origin of magnetism within planets and stars is of fundamental importance in the natural sciences. Magnetic fields of astrophysical bodies reveal a wealth of...
Artificial ventilation of patients is part of routine clinical care during anaesthesia, and in patients with respiratory failure. Most of these patients require an artificial...
High pressure gas atomization (HPGA) is a commercial process for the manufacture of metal powders in which supersonic gas jets are used to disrupt a...
The fluid dynamics of moist convection and its representation in models is a ‘grand challenge’ for atmospheric science, and is key to improved weather and...
The recent discovery of particles erupted from seafloor volcanoes (see video link below) in marine sediment samples presents an exciting new approach to investigate the...
