About the project

Project: Nonlinear vibration in vehicular structures

It is an increasingly common practice to employ numerical simulations to quantify the noise and vibration performance of complex mechanical structures, such as road vehicles, aircraft and ships. However, nonlinearities inherent in the different components of a structure are often excluded from the mathematical models used to predict noise and vibration response. Hitherto, structural models of these complex structures were often overly simplified, partly to allow for acceptable simulation times but also a systematic means for manipulating and optimising features of nonlinear resonant response in mechanical structures is still lacking.

This project will be carried out in collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover. The research will explore innovative methods (through a combination of nonlinear dynamics, computational mechanics and optimisation) to incorporate the effects of nonlinearity in noise and vibration response of vehicular structures, at an acceptable computational cost. It is envisaged that the work will be useful to the automotive industry for making improved predictions of natural frequencies, vibration and noise in new vehicle designs.

Closing Date and Start Date:

All enquiries must be received by 9th Dec 2022 (closing date). If successful, the start date of the PhD will be in Sept/Oct 2023.

Value of award:

Full tuition fees and stipends (living expenses) for the duration of the doctoral research.

Person specification

A background in Mechanical, Automotive or Aeronautical Engineering, or an equivalent discipline with a high technical content, of any nationality. Aptitude for computational modelling and/or experimental work is essential. Applicants should be from a top-ranked university and are expected to graduate at the top of their cohort. A research track record, demonstrated by publications in international journals, will greatly enhance the chances of success.

Application procedure

Applicants should write to both A/Prof(Teaching) Ali Abolfathi (a.abolfathi@ucl.ac.uk) and Prof PJ Tan (pj.tan@ucl.ac.uk) with a recent CV, area of interests and a full transcript of exam results. Individuals who have yet to graduate must list all the modules (and corresponding grades) for which the results are known. Qualified candidates will go through an interview, followed by a preliminary round of departmental pre-selection; and, if successful, will be entered for university-level competition for the scholarships.
