Job Description: Researchers in the University of Leicester’s Department of Engineering have an international reputation and collaborate with other researchers throughout the world, making it an exciting environment for both research and teaching.
The Department is delighted to offer a funded PhD studentship – supporting a highly-qualified graduate to join its vibrant research community. This studentship is jointly funded by the EPSRC and Corus and is open to applicants from the UK and European Union. The successful applicant will benefit from a full waiver of tuition fees and a stipend for the 3.5 year duration of the project (UK applicants only – applicants from elsewhere in the EU will receive the fee waiver only). We are unable to accept applications from students from outside the EU.
Project Description
The demand for deep-sea oil and gas supply is increasing due to the higher demand on energy and security of energy supply. The pipelines for transporting oil and gas are constructed by joining high strength steel linepipes via welding. How to achieve defect-free welding joints with favourable microstructure and properties in linepipe production is of vital importance to the pipelines especially to be laid at deep and ultra-deep waters. The current project is designed to address these issues in terms of microstructure evolution and defect formation and avoidance during linepipe welding.
The PhD student will be based in the Engineering Department and will benefit from opportunities to work closely with a research consortium on a major European seventh framework programme (FP7), MintWeld, on modeling, characterization and testing of welds.
Application Deadline 31July2010
