    Teddington, United Kingdom NPL Full time

    Scientific background Identifying sources of atmospheric particulate pollution is essential to inform effective mitigation strategies. Trace metal isotope ratios have the potential to fingerprint the source of particulates emitted by industrial processes but require high-precision analyses of small amounts of sample material to extract this information....

PhD Vacancy

2 months ago

Teddington, United Kingdom NPL Full time
We are looking for up to 5 fully funded PhD candidates across a range of disciplines to carry out advanced research in building security and resilience in a digitalised world, as part of a partnership led academically by the Universities of Surrey and Strathclyde and supported by the Surrey-Strathclyde-NPL strategic partnership and a number of industry partners. The world is becoming increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. At the same time, our Critical Infrastructure is becoming increasingly dependent on digital technologies, introducing new strengths and vulnerabilities as advances in communications, networking, robotics, sensing, data processing, AI and edge and cloud computing are made. All this rapid change gives rise to unforeseen disruptions that are increasingly difficult to predict, in part because they cascade through the digitally interconnected fabric of our society. Research will be driven by the major challenges associated with achieving resilience in critical infrastructure systems, maintaining their ability to function across digital, physical and human aspects in the face of change, disruption and attack.  This is a multi-faceted agenda covering many aspects of resilience-building, including: resilience-by-design; understanding, modelling and managing complexity; planning for uncertainty and risk; cyber resilience; trustworthiness and measurement; and the use of data, digital tools and AI. Students will join a multidisciplinary cohort of up to 10 students across the Universities of Surrey and Strathclyde. Students will develop their PhD projects in conjunction with the supervisory team and industry partners as part of their initial foundational training, which includes training in resilience-building as well as multi-disciplinary team challenge projects, with the aim of establishing a “resilience mindset” in students – the ability to be self-directed, generate questions, solve complex problems, collaborate across traditional `silos’ and continuously learn and adapt. Our industry stakeholders will also provide access to facilities across a range of sectors, including communication, timing, power and transport.
