Force Balances and Dynamical Scaling of Rotating Convection in the Earth's Core
Convection within the Earth’s fluid core generates the planetary magnetic field; spatial and temporal variations of the geomagnetic field can thus be used to gain...
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 Earth’s liquid core is a very remote place indeed – we know relatively very little about its structure and dynamics because direct observation is...
The technical challenges associated with droplets depositing and spreading on oily-soft surfaces is of significant interest to many industries including printing, paint and agriculture. However,...
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...
Wastewater treatment processes have high energy-costs and are challenging to optimise due to the complex coupled processes occurring. In England and Wales over 10 billion...
Phase change problems occur in a large number of practical applications and processes from the food industry through to heavy engineering. In particular, many industrial...
A proper understanding of how the geomagnetic field is generated in Earth’s liquid core, by the so-called geodynamo, remains one of the greatest outstanding problems...
