Eligibility and Award Criteria:

• You must hold an offer of a study place and begin your postgraduate Taught Masters program in September 2015.
• You must be a national or permanently domiciled of Bangladesh.
• You must be self-funded and classified as overseas for fee purposes.
• The scholarships will be awarded automatically – no application is required.
• The scholarships will take the form of a tuition fee reduction only.
• The scholarships are for full-time and part-time students only. Students studying via Distance Learning are not eligible for the scholarships.
• Part-time students will receive the full value of a one year of scholarship split pro rata over the duration of an equivalent single full-time academic year.
• The scholarships will not be awarded where partial funding is applicable from an external body* and there is an agreement already in place between the external body and the University of Sheffield to offer a tuition fee discount to the student.
• The Scholarship is for each year of the Taught Masters Program, however it is not available for each year of a New Route PhD course. The scholarship is only available for the first year of study.

* Government or governmental organization – international, national or regional; Research council; Charity; private enterprise; or any similar organization.

Fully Funded PhD Studentship for Engineers and Mathematics Students at Cranfield University, UK

Institute: Cranfield University
Scholarship Type: Paid Tuition & Bursary Studentship
Supervisors:
Dr. Hrushikesh Abhyankar Research Fellow Lightweight Structures
Dr. James Brighton – Head of Centre for Automotive Technologies
Eligibility: UK, EU International
Duration of award: 3 years
Application Deadline: 31st May 2015
Start Date: ASAP   Ref: CRAN1059



Sponsor and Coverage:
Sponsored by Future Sky (EU), this studentship will provide a bursary of up to £16,000 - £ 19,000 p.a. (tax free) plus fees* for three years

Project name :
Developing a simulation methodology for tyre interaction with a contaminated runway that includes the dynamics of both tyre and liquids.

This project related to:
Advanced Composites, Rubber and Tyre Mechanics

The project:
The project is involve in testing, characterization and analysis of Tyre and ground, models that can be used for simulation of aircraft operations during ground roll under crosswind conditions. The main focus of the study (PhD topic) will be to develop a simulation methodology for tyre interaction with a contaminated runway that includes the dynamics of both tyre and liquids. This will involve developing models based on both empirical data developed from experiments and modelling (FEA). The study is part of a project sponsored by the European Union and Future Sky.

What the candidate will do: The candidate will participate in a fully-funded PhD program at the Centre of Automotive Technology (CAT) at Cranfield University, UK. The PhD will give the candidate  a unique hands-on Project which will include testing and analysis of rubber and tyre models and its interactions with various ground conditions. the main duty of the candidate is to  develop simulation models using LS DYNA (FEA + ALE). This experience will enable student to broaden and deepen your core engineering skills and explore those research areas that interest you most.
What you’ll get out of it: CAT has exceptional industrial links, with many projects offered by industrial partners. The centre is also involved in many EU and UK funded projects. Exposure to these projects will provide the candidate with valuable knowledge and insight into the world of Transport Systems. CAT is also involved in MSc Motorsports Engineering course.

On completion of the programme you will leave with far more than just a PhD qualification; you will have the skills, knowledge and acumen to become the future technical leader in advanced tyre mechanics and modelling, be it in academia or industry.
More about CAT: The Centre for Automotive Technology focuses on research, development, education and training through short course provision in relation to vehicles including motorcars, sports utility vehicles (SUVs), motorcycles, competition cars, racing motorcycles, low carbon vehicles (LCVs), agricultural machinery, industrial machinery, military vehicles, space vehicles, marine vessels, air and landing craft.

Entry requirements:
Applicants should have a first or second class UK honors degree or equivalent in a related discipline, such as mathematics, or engineering. The ideal candidate should have solid background to understand in the area of simulation, numerical modelling and industrial service delivery. The candidate should be self-motivated, have good communication skills for regular interaction with other stakeholders, with an interest for industrial research.

PhD Studentship Available for Aeronautical & Mechanical Engineers in UK

Institute: Cranfield University
Scholarship Type: Paid Bursary Studentship
Bursary Amount: £10,000 per
Supervisor: Dr Yiguang Li

Project name: Gas turbine gas path diagnostics and prognostics

Sponsored by: Yhis project is sponsored by Manx Utilities (MU), UK, this studentship will provide a bursary of up to £10,000p.a. (tax free)* for three years

This research is organized jointly with Manx Utilities and Isle of Man, UK. Applications are invited for a PhD studentship in the Centre for Propulsion Engineering, Cranfield University, in the area of gas path diagnostics and prognostics.

Cranfield has developed a unique methodology and software to analyze the health of gas path components of gas turbine engines. The research in this area at Cranfield will be a good starting point for the proposed project for MU, an industrial sponsor of the project. The objective of the proposed research is to further develop the methodology in the area of gas path diagnostics and prognostics and apply the technology to the health analysis and prediction of the LM2500+ industrial gas turbine engines operated in MU. The critical components for the diagnostic and prognostic analysis will be the compressors and turbines. This is to support the condition-based maintenance in MU with the objective to improve the availability and reduce the maintenance costs of the engines.

The developed engine diagnostic and prognostic modules will be implemented into Cranfield Pythia gas turbine performance, diagnostics and lifing software in order that the engine field data can be used directly for the analysis.
Close communication with the industrial sponsor is expected and regular visits to the company will be funded by the project to assist the student to get first-hand information and experience of gas turbine operation.

Eligibility:

• Applicants should have or expect to gain a UK 1st or upper 2nd class degree or equivalent in aeronautical or mechanical engineering. 
• applicaants will  get advantages who have an MSc or experience in numerical modelling, thermodynamics and gas turbine technology, and computer programming skills . 
• The PhD candidate is expected to start as soon as possible.
