Course summary
Newcastle University are developing internationally competitive research in advanced computational solid and applied analytical structural mechanics.
Overview
By pursuing structural civil engineering research you'll join a successful research group. Our mission is to foster, promote and conduct research of international quality. We attract high quality graduates and researchers and train them to international standards.
You'll have enthusiasm for research in the field of structural engineering. Our current research includes:
non-linear structural optimisation
non-linear analysis of conventional and non-conventional structures and materials
structural integrity assessment
seismic design and analysis
resilience of complex infrastructure networks
Examples of MPhil and PhD supervision in our research areas include:
analysis of concrete at elevated temperatures
structural optimisation and reliability
structural textiles and polymeric composites
seismic engineering and extreme loadings
the effects of transient loads on structures
numerical methods
computational mechanics
analysis of lightweight fabric and pneumatic structures
resilience of complex infrastructure networks
Placement opportunities
We have extensive UK and international contacts. This enables research to be carried out in collaboration with industry and government agencies. Research projects are supervised by staff with a wide range of industrial and academic experience.
