PhD Scholarship - Three-Dimensional Solids

Scholarship Description

Research aims: Manufacture three-dimensional solids that exhibit an inhomogeneous, designed architecture; Create patterns of sub-solids that are contained within the whole free-form; Define the minimum dimension of phase resolution that is needed for component functionality; Establish how porosity can be controlled during the manufacturing process; especially with regard to maximizing porosity yet still retaining mechanical integrity. The need revolves around applications that use (i) surfacing, joining and mating technologies to fabricate components (coatings for mining equipment; thermal /electrical materials applied to load bearing structures; re-building/repair of engineering components); and (ii) combinorial technologies that are used to measure and sense operational conditions (embedded sensors for thermal, electrical, and chemical environments; materials that can respond to species-selective, catalytic environments in an active, self-regulating and responsive fashion).
