Applications are invited for PhD research studentships in the field of manufacturing and structural design for lightweight vehicles leading to the award of a PhD degree. The posts will be supported by a bursary and fees provided by Imperial College London.

The research work will focus on the development of innovative technologies in metal/composite forming, joining, and structural design, in terms of providing disruptive solutions to vehicle lightweighting. Through the PhD research, you will integrate the fundamental scientific understanding of materials with manufacturing processes relating to materials processing, thus developing microstructural-controlled, cost-effective techniques; or, you will integrate the advanced manufacturing techniques with structural design, combining physically based and data driven modelling with machining learning empowered optimisation, to fully explore the potential of structural performance. The research is funded by industrial partners and tackle the industrial challenges.

If you are interested, please send your CV (including GPA score) to Dr Nan Li at nan.li@imperial.ac.uk.
