ABOUT
This PhD studentship is funded by Network Rail, the owner and infrastructure manager of most of the railway network in Great Britain, and Furrer+Frey, presently an international leading and innovative, mid-size supplier of overhead contact lines. The project will aim at the environmental fatigue life investigation of Automated Fibre Placement Process (AFPP) for composites to be used in the overhead line supporting structures. The project will provide the opportunity to collaborate with industrial partners and develop testing methodology and simulation tools for the prediction of fatigue life in composites structures under complex environmental and mechanical loading conditions
Entry requirements
Applicants should have a first or second class UK honours degree or equivalent in a related discipline. This project would suit candidate with strong background in structures, materials and composites and experience in stress analysis, fatigue and damage mechanics in composites would be a desirable
