PhD Studentship: AI-Enhanced Fluid-Structure Modelling to Aid Maritime Decarbonization
5 months ago
Supervisory Team: Dr Kang Ren, Professor Stephen Turnock, Professor Dominic Hudson
PhD Supervisor: Kang Ren
Project description:
The marine and maritime sectors face an urgent need for green energy solutions and effective decarbonization strategies. Our project focuses on the development of AI-enhanced numerical tools to help address these challenges. Specifically, we will study the viscous flow dynamics associated with both rigid and flexible structures commonly found in various devices that harvest energy from the environment. These structures include wave energy devices, offshore wind turbine blades and support structures, fixed or floating, and wind-assisted propulsion systems. The research outcomes will contribute to optimizing device design, enhancing the understanding of flow behaviour, and improving the overall performance of these critical technologies.
This project centres on innovative numerical schemes based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). By going beyond the conventional Navier-Stokes framework, the LBM shows its strengths in adeptly managing complex boundary conditions and leverages the power of parallel computing. It provides a powerful platform for addressing the fluid-structure modelling challenges within this field. In addition, AI technology will play a crucial role as a supportive tool, contributing to more efficient and accurate turbulence modelling.
We are actively searching for a highly motivated candidate with the following qualifications:
- Background in relevant engineering, mathematics, physics or computer sciences is highly desirable.
- Proficiency in at least one of MATLAB, Python, and C++.
- Enthusiasm for exploring AI algorithms and interdisciplinary research.
- Demonstrated capability to research independently and collaboratively.
If you are passionate about mathematical and computational modelling in fluid mechanics, eager to tackle cross-disciplinary challenges, and driven to create significant advancements through the development of AI-aided numerical schemes, this opportunity is for you.
Under the guidance of experienced supervisors, you will have the opportunity to:
- Develop mathematical and computational models that unravel fluid-structure complexities;
- Bridge the gap between theory and practical applications, conveying the richness of interdisciplinary research;
- Collaborate closely with experts in our maritime group, where we are at the forefront of cutting-edge numerical simulations and experimental studies, revolutionizing wind-assisted propulsion systems and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of sustainable maritime solutions.
If you wish to discuss any details of the project informally, please contact Dr Kang Ren, Maritime Engineering Group, Email: k.ren@soton.ac.uk
Entry Requirements
A very good undergraduate degree (at least a UK 2:1 honours degree, or its international equivalent).
Closing date: 16 December 2024.
Applications will be considered in the order that they are received, the position will be considered filled when a suitable candidate has been identified.
Funding
We offer a range of funding opportunities for both UK and international students, including Bursaries and Scholarships.
