ABOUT
Studying PhD of modal responses of mechanical structures under thermo-mechanical loads at Cranfield University in the United Kingdom:
The aim of this course is to examine the relation between strain energy and the change in structural modal responses under thermo-mechanical loads. In this program, an induction heating mechanism or a small cartridge and a modal exciter are used to develop an experimental setup and to provide thermal and dynamic loading on a mechanical structure at the same time. The modal response along with the lost strain energy can be measured by precision instruments including acoustic sensors, accelerometers, and data acquisition. Experimental testing plans are followed under a predetermined boundary condition and are likely to be fixed in a free mode. The obtained data are used to correlate the strain energy and structural modal response when exposed to subsurface fatigue.
Students will enjoy a professional, focused, and dynamic environment and become part of the Cranfield Doctoral Network. The network is made up of research staff and students and provides a platform for researchers to collaborate in a multidisciplinary environment and share their ideas. The purpose of forming this network is to encourage a dynamic and effective research culture based on knowledge and diversity of activities. The transferable skills curriculum, along with a dedicated program of events and seminars, provides students with the opportunity to network and gain social opportunities.
Students will be based at the TES center. The center is among the global leaders in through-life approaches for asset management, damage tolerance, condition monitoring, and high value systems. TES has received a grant of £ 11 million from the EPSRC in order to address the research problems and to develop the excellence of research.
As an exclusively postgraduate University, Cranfield takes learning to new heights in technology and management with the goal of creating world-class leaders. It awards over 5% of the UK’s Engineering and Technology PhDs every year. 81% of its research is classed as world-leading. Manufacturing is one of Cronfield University’s eight core disciplines, combining a multidisciplinary approach that includes design, technology, and management expertise. Basic materials research is linked to manufacturing to improve the scientific basis of manufacturing research and develop new technologies.
Admission requirements of doctoral degree in modal responses of mechanical structures under thermo-mechanical loads:
To study this field, you must have at least a 2:1 first degree in a relevant discipline or subject area. You need to have great reporting, programming, analytical, and communication skills, as well as motivation. You are also expected to be willing to publish your research findings in international journal.
Language requirements of doctoral degree in modal responses of mechanical structures under thermo-mechanical loads:
To study the course, students must demonstrate their ability to communicate in English. They can apply for one of the Cranfield’s EAP courses, if they do not meet expectations of the English language arrival. The expiration date for the exams is only two years of the course start date. Combination of scores in two or more tests is not accepted, all elements of test results must be shown in one test. All test scores are checked with test providers. Applicants must have at least IELTS 6.5 (5.5 in all skill components), TOEFL IBT 92 (reading at least 18, listening at least 17, writing at least 17, speaking at least 20), Pearson PTE 65 (59 in all skill components), Cambridge Assessment English 180 (160 in all skill components), pass in Trinity College London, or high pass in Language Cert (33 in all skill components).
