9. Fully Funded PhD Position in Biomaterials for carbon anode in aluminum production

Summary of PhD Program:

Aluminum is one of the world’s most widely used and recycled metals. Commercial primary aluminum manufacture involves reducing alumina to aluminium in a reduction/electrolysis cell. This process is achieved by running electricity between a negative cathode and a positive anode, both made of fossil carbon. The process is highly energy intensive, requiring 13,500-15,000 kWh per ton of aluminium. For the gas-powdered aluminum smelters of Europe, the corresponding carbon emission intensity is estimated to be 4-10 tons of CO2 per ton of aluminium. The secure supply of carbon anodes and the associated emissions from carbon anode consumption serve as the remaining major challenge for aluminium production.

17. Fully Funded PhD Position in Liquid-infused surface in flowing fluids

Summary of PhD Program:

A lubricant-infused surface (LIS) is a structured surface infused with a viscous liquid layer. These slippery surfaces are partially inspired by the carnivorous Nepenthes pitcher plant.

12. Fully Funded PhD Position in filtering techniques

Summary of PhD Program:

Filtering is a powerful tool in computational fluid dynamics that can aid in accurately and efficiently predicting the governing physics in simulations, leading to improved designs. Filters can enable data compression, damping unphysical oscillations, and revealing multi-scale physics such as in turbulence modelling. Smoothness-Increasing Accuracy-Conserving (SIAC) post-processing filters, are typically used to extract hidden information in certain numerical simulations, creating even more accurate representations of the data. They are flexible enough to incorporate information from experimental data. In the past, SIAC filtering has relied on B-splines and often has a tensor-product structure in multi-dimensions.

This PhD project will focus on developing a multi-variate filtering framework for applications to general multi-dimensional geometries. The main application will be to data compression. The project will entail aspects from approximation theory, error estimation of simulation data, and contribution to the SIAC Magic ToolBox. The project will span theory, algorithms, and applications. No pre-requite knowledge in filtering is required.
