(03) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Application of laser imaging techniques to thermal synthesis of carbon materials

Nanostructured carbon materials are the subject of intense research interest due to their many applications, such as energy storage, electrochemical devices, catalysis and water purification. Synthesis of such bespoke materials in flames has advantages including avoiding the use of solvents and favourable product purity.

Research in this area is nevertheless still characterised by a gap between research disciplines. In materials science, carbons are often prepared in simple or uncontrolled flames, such as by igniting a sample of precursor powder. On the other hand, research on thermal reacting flows has led to the adoption of standard laboratory burners whose characterisation has been advanced by the development of custom laser imaging methods for in situ spatial mapping of temperature, concentration of major and minor species, and volume fraction and size of particulates.

(04) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Multiscale modelling & optimisation of renewable plastic films

The project will build on previous work at the University of Strathclyde to model the development of microstructure in renewable and compostable semi-crystalline plastic films. The plastic’s microstructure, that is how its crystalline domains are spatially arranged to leave amorphous polymer pathways throughout the material, dominates its material properties. These include its strength, flexibility, and optical transparency, as well as the essential gas barrier properties required, for example, in food packaging applications. Understanding how the microstructure evolves in plastics, and how it is influenced by processing conditions and additives such as filler particles, is essential to its control and therefore for the design of manufacturing routes to optimise application-specific properties.

To improve the properties of plastic films, and to make them processable, a blend of plasticisers and fillers are usually added to the polymer melt. This means that there are many competing interactions to understand across a range of length and timescales. In this project, we will explore how to make the filler particles act as nucleants for the polymer crystals, using both coarse-grained and atomistic models. The work will focus on polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), a renewable and compostable polymer created by bacteria and a potential competitor for traditional oil-based plastic films used in food applications [1].

(06) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Recycling wind turbine blades into composite materials

The project takes advantage of state-of-the-art recycling technology already developed by the Advanced Composites Group (ACG) to further explore novel ideas for the next generation of recycling techniques as well as post-recycling options for using recycled materials to produce more cost-effective and sustainable composites.

The project involves carrying out feasibility studies into new recycling techniques scalable with the characteristics of low energy consumption, emission, environmental impact, and costs. An artificial intelligence (AI) driven approach coupled with life-cycle analysis (LCA) will be developed to guide the design of recycling processes. This will be extended to encompass the scope for post-recycling methods in terms of reuse of recycled materials.

In parallel with this digital framework is the physical development of lab-scale processes for blades recycling and remanufacturing. ACG labs and facilities relevant to these areas will be leveraged to accelerate progress during this stage. The project will also involve a significant amount of material development using recycled materials from wind turbine blades to formulate and process intermediate and final composite materials for different industrial applications.

(10) PhD Degree – Fully Funded

PhD position summary/title: Uncertainty quantification in CO2 calculations

Global warming is one of the biggest threats humanity faces today. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels are warming our planet in a dangerous and irreversible way. Quantitative scientists must be able to quantify exactly and robustly the amount of CO2 emitted by humans to inform and support effective climate action. Although such an exact CO2 account seems obvious and necessary, it is currently done using approaches that lack scientific rigour and fail to properly account for uncertainties.

This PhD research will explore the challenges associated with the reliable quantification of CO2 emissions using the latest cutting-edge uncertainty quantification methods combined with modern digital and generative tools. These methods will take explicit and quantitative account of the randomness, vagueness and limited quality of CO2 data. Current methods for CO2 calculations are deterministic and entirely based on coarse grid conversion factors with little–if at all–mention of the uncertainty that such calculations can incur. This research seeks to bridge this gap, providing a more rigorous framework for CO2 emissions assessment.
