PhD in Physics

The projects offered span from fast, empirical tools for aero-engine noise prediction, based on high-fidelity CFD or experiments, to full-aircraft and fleet-level noise modelling. These projects will be conducted within the Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre in Propulsion Systems Noise. This provides a unique opportunity to contribute to real-world challenges and make a tangible impact on the future of quieter, more sustainable aviation. Projects span a wide range of topics, with the primary focus on commercial aircraft with conventional turbofan and novel propulsion types. You will benefit from a dynamic, interdisciplinary research environment at ISVR, with access to state-of-the-art facilities and a vibrant postgraduate community.
