Electronics and computer science Next generation machine learning for data analysis The project focuses on the theory, algorithms and applications for Machine Learning (ML) based on generalised nonconvex low-rank models. The goals include designing faster algorithm, understanding the working principle behind ML, applying ML to solve application problems. Photonics and optoelectronics | Physics and astronomy Programming photonic quantum chips using phase change materials In this project, the student will develop new technologies for integrated quantum optical chips allowing programming and tuning of devices under different operating conditions and in particular for operation in a cryogenic environment. Engineering CFD and data-driven modelling for Accurate Force and Acoustic Predictions This project is dedicated to the creation of a comprehensive numerical framework, with the primary objective of comprehending and simulating unsteady boundary layers on dynamic geometries. Photonics and optoelectronics Generation after next fibre lasers for defence and security applications This project will contribute to a major Ministry of Defence (MoD) research programme intended to develop generation after next technologies for applications in defence and security. Photonics and optoelectronics Next generation high power fibre lasers in the visible and ultraviolet wavelength bands This project will investigate novel concepts for high power lasers operating in the visible and ultraviolet (UV) wavelength bands. Photonics and optoelectronics High Energy Laser Beam Combination and Propagation of Tailored Beams This project will contribute to a major Ministry of Defence (MoD) research programme intended to develop generation after next technologies for applications in defence and security. Chemistry | Biological sciences Disrupting oral biofilm formation & maturation: Covalently inhibiting glucan sucrases from Streptococci This research will focus on oral biofilms and their effects on oral health. The project is highly multidisciplinary and will pioneer a novel approach to control the formation and maturation of biofilm within the oral microbiome, combining the latest chemical biology technique with microbiological methods. Chemistry High precision time-resolved thrust measurement and Two-dimensional plasma plume diagnostics This project offers a unique opportunity to develop a high precision time-resolved thrust balance and optical diagnostics to characterise the spatial distribution of plasma plume generated by a plasma thruster. Chemistry Covalent inhibition of streptococcal glucan sucrases to disrupt oral biofilm development This project will pioneer a novel chemical strategy to control the formation and maturation of biofilm in the oral microbiome using small molecules.
