1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Application of Expanding Alloys for Plugging of Wells
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD Fellow will be affiliated with a research project where we will study the suitability of easily fusible alloys as a material to achieve zonal isolation in wells. Relevant alloys for well applications typically consist of bismuth and tin, with advantageous properties such as a relatively low melting point, as well as measurable volumetric expansion when transitioning from the liquid phase to the solid state. This allows the alloy to be melted in the well by adding heat either electrically or chemically (e.g. using thermite); in liquid form, the material will flow almost like water and can penetrate small leakage channels or fill the cross-section of the well, before it cools over time and solidifies again.
Application Deadline: 24th October 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Wind loading on long-span bridges
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD Fellow will be affiliated with the project “Wind loading and response modelling of long-span bridges based on field observations”. The project aims to increase knowledge of wind loading and wind-induced response of structures. The objective is to improve the modelling of the natural wind and its interaction with structures, in order to contribute to a more cost efficient and sustainable design.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Industrial asset management
Summary of PhD Program:
This research project covers R&D work towards Data-assisted decision-making processes for robust operation and maintenance of offshore wind energy assets. It will explore context-dependent business and operating models, and scenarios with regard to complex dynamics in the industrial value chain and its inherent uncertainties, for the development of data-integrated decision-making bases.
Application Deadline: 11th October 2024
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computational Engineering
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD Fellow will be affiliated with the following project “Machine learning and computational physics for sustainable energy solutions”. Sustainable energy sources and treatments are already and will further be one of the main priorities for forthcoming technological development to limit human contribution to climate change. Improving energy storage in batteries could contribute to reducing current climate dynamics by increasing the reliability of renewable power sources.
Application Deadline: 6th October 2024
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Sport Science
Summary of PhD Program:
The PhD Fellow will be affiliated with the following project Intervention development for physically active individuals with symptoms of muscle dysmorphia. Muscle dysmorphia is a mental disorder characterized by a pathological belief of being insufficiently muscular and is currently classified as a specifier for Body Dysmorphic Disorder. Symptoms of muscle dysmorphia are mainly prevalent among young men and women engaged in strength training (e.g., university students), and the literature has shown that common symptoms of the disorder include a distorted body perception, obsession with muscle mass, size, and shape, anxiety and stress, as well as excessive and compulsive exercise.
Application Deadline: 27th September 2024
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in English language teaching methodology
Summary of PhD Program:
The curriculum for English highlights the importance of learner participation, and thus assumes that the pupils should be able to influence the subjects’ content and methods. This aligns with the values and principles of the Core Curriculum, which emphasizes that ‘democratic values shall be promoted through active participation throughout the entire learning path’. The use of varied methodologies that actively involve learners in the learning process (learner-active methodologies) is further emphasized, particularly in the early years of education, where play, exploration and use of senses are prioritized
