Scholarship Details of 2022 University of Adelaide ARC Grant Scholarships:
The Discovery Project entitled “Multifunctional Structural Panels for Next-generation Infrastructure” is funded by Australian Research Council (ARC) to support a full-time PhD student who will be undertaking research in Numerical Modelling of Sandwich Panels by developing new Laminate Theories and Constitutive Models, and their implementation within an advance Finite Element code.
This project aims to develop a multifunctional prefabricated structural panel for current and future infrastructure applications for both land and offshore environments. Prefabrication enables enhanced product control as well as the ability to rapidly construct whole structures or their components. The panels utilise an inner lightweight foam and fibre-reinforced polymer
(FRP) composite core with strong outer panels made from FRP sheets and high-strength concrete. The expected outcomes include experimental and numerical validation of the system, that will give designers and asset owners the confidence to adopt this new panel.
Scholarship Requirements for 2022 University of Adelaide ARC Grant Scholarships:
To be considered for the ARC, you must:
- be Australian citizens or permanent residents of Australia/international students who are acceptable as candidates for a PhD degree at the University of Adelaide.
- Applicants with strong numerical modeling skills in solid and structural mechanics, particularly in the development of new plate theories for laminated composite panels and/or constitutive models (damage-plasticity based) for fibre reinforced composite materials
and/or concrete, and their implementation within an advanced finite element program
such as ABAQUS will be considered favourably. - Excellent students who hold a Bachelor/Master of Civil/Mechanical/Aerospace Engineering with experience and/or exposure in the above research area would be especially suitable and encouraged to apply.
