About This Opportunity
This PhD scholarship is offered by the EPSRC CDT in Offshore Wind Energy Sustainability and Resilience, a partnership between Durham, Hull, Loughborough and Sheffield Universities. The project focuses on developing computational techniques to understand the behavior of suction caisson foundations for floating offshore wind turbines across various seabed conditions. The successful applicant will undertake a six-month training program at the University of Hull before continuing their PhD research at Durham University. The research will utilize the Material Point Method to tackle soil-structure interaction problems crucial for floating wind energy development. The program includes a comprehensive taught programme providing broad understanding of offshore wind sector needs, supplemented by Continuing Professional Development embedded throughout the 4-year research scholarship.
