PhD

PhD Studentships – Behavioural Research

Two fully funded PhD projects co-designed with industry partners, focusing on (1) driver behaviour under acute stress in collaboration with the UK Department for Transport, and (2) post-Games wellbeing and support for Invictus Games competitors with international veteran support organisations.

Fully Funded PhD – Human Performance Modeling for Safe Vehicle Automation

A fully funded PhD focused on modeling human driving behavior and performance limits to improve the safety and design of automated driving systems, using data-driven and computational methods in collaboration with industry.

PhD – Aerodynamic Design and Optimisation of High-Speed Air Induction Systems

A fully funded PhD focused on improving aerodynamic design and propulsion–airframe integration for high-speed aircraft, using advanced modelling and optimization techniques to reduce drag, enhance engine efficiency, and support sustainable aviation.

PhD – Interaction of Cryogenic Fuel Storage and Distribution System for LH2 Aircraft

A fully funded PhD focused on liquid hydrogen (LH2) fuel systems for aircraft, developing integrated models to optimize storage and distribution, reduce vapor ingestion, and support net-zero aviation technologies in collaboration with industry.

Fully Funded PhD Studentship – Net Zero Aviation CDT

A doctoral training program focused on decarbonising aviation through systems engineering, innovation, and industry collaboration, equipping researchers with skills to develop and scale net-zero aviation solutions.

PhD Digital Twin Framework for Behaviourally Responsive Integrated Passenger–Freight Transport with Crowd Shipping
