(03) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Abnormal Combustion of Hydrogen in Prosperous Net-Zero Engine

New energy technologies are vital in decarbonising heavy goods vehicles. Hydrogen is a carbon free fuel that helps with net-zero transition but hydrogen faces several challenges in the field of combustion due to its auto-ignition characteristics. This project aims at developing mechanisms to understand hydrogen combustion that will account explicitly for the chemical and residual gas effects under a wide range of pressures and temperatures. Software such as CHEMKIN, CONVERGE, FOAM and in-house developed MATLAB codes will be used in this research to understand Hydrogen combustion in Heavy Duty Engines.

Deadline : 30 August 2024

(04) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: AI-Enabled Subsystem-Level Condition Monitoring in Fusion Remote Maintenance – Studentship

The reliability and safety of fusion powerplants heavily depend on the proper functioning of the Fusion Remote Maintenance Systems (FRMS) and their constituent subsystems. This project aims to develop an advanced sub-system level condition monitoring (CM) approach, leveraging AI and machine learning techniques, and integrating fault tree analysis (FTA), real-time FMECA (Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis), and maintenance scheduling. The implementation of AI techniques will enhance the capability to detect, diagnose, and mitigate anomalies at the sub system-level, improving the overall reliability and safety of the FRMS. Potential techniques that can be used include but not limited to LSTM, Transformer models, etc.

The student will join the Research Centre on AI: Social and Digital Transformation and Electronic and Computer Engineering PhD program at Brunel University London, much research of which focuses on development of environmentally green responsible AI models applied to real-world applications. The student will also benefit from support from an industrial mentor.

This project is partially funded by RACE (Remote Applications in Challenging Environments) RACE was founded in 2014 as part of the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA)’s fusion research and development programme – to create robots for operating in some of the most challenging environments imaginable.

Deadline : 03/09/2024

(05) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Fully funded Ph.D. Studentship in the Department of Health Sciences, Brunel University London to co-design and test an intervention to increase referral and uptake rates for pulmonary rehabilitation amongst people living with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Pulmonary rehabilitation, an exercise and education programme for people with a lung disease called COPD, improves breathlessness and decreases the frequency of hospitalisations. National data report that pulmonary rehabilitation referral and uptake rates are low, with ethnic minority groups, those living in deprived areas, women and older people less likely to be referred. Increasing the number of people receiving pulmonary rehabilitation is an urgent research priority.

Very Brief Advice, which is widely used in the NHS, is an evidence-based behavioural change approach that increases the referral rate to smoking cessation services and uptake of smoking cessation. It involves an online training programme for healthcare professionals that provides training in Very Brief Advice. As referral and uptake are behavioural issues, adapting Very Brief Advice, a behavioural change approach, to enable healthcare workers to discuss pulmonary rehabilitation with patients may be a plausible way to increase referral and uptake rates.

The PhD project will involve intervention co-design and investigation of the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a full-scale cluster-randomised controlled trial of a very brief behaviour change approach, for healthcare professionals to assist conversations on pulmonary rehabilitation with people with COPD. The doctoral researcher will undertake both qualitative and quantitative research, including focus groups, co-design workshops, and mixed-method feasibility cohort study. With the support of Dr Claire Nolan, they will lead on patient and public involvement engagement activities and be a member of the study’s independent advisory group and trial steering committee.

Deadline : 8 September 2024.

(06) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Sustainable management of community sport organisations

The PhD studentship will involve systematically reviewing relevant literature and practices in the field, working with a local community football club and developing an innovative model of sustainability management of community football clubs.

This model is concerned with understanding and shaping the interactions between complex adaptive natural systems and sports organisations at individual, organisational and societal levels.

A key feature that distinguishes sustainability sport management from its current mainstream understanding and practices as a business is its explicit prioritisation of all types of sports participants as citizens as opposed to treating them as consumers.

The successful candidate will be supervised by an expert interdisciplinary team of researchers who will provide full training for the research.

Deadline : 30 September 2024
