PhD Materials and Fluid Flow Modelling

Sheffield Hallam University

This course allows you to undertake research into a specific area of materials and fluid flow modelling. This varied subject encompasses everything from liquid crystals and polymers to thermodynamics. Your work will join extremely well-regarded MERI publications – a high proportion of which are considered 'world leading' or 'internationally excellent'. All our courses are designed around a set of key principles based on engaging you with the world, collaborating with others, challenging you to think in new ways, and providing you with a supportive environment in which you can thrive.As this is a research course, most of your work will be carried out independently. You’ll benefit from the support and expertise of your supervisory team – including a Director of Studies and a second supervisor who have specific interest in your chosen subject area. Indicative topic areas include liquid crystals, self-assembled structures and foods. ou’ll also be able to use wide-ranging simulation methods for your work – molecular dynamics or Monte Carlo, for example.
