Overview
Within the Civil Engineering (Structural) MPhil programme from Newcastle University you will join an extremely successful research group focussing on structural civil engineering. Our mission is to foster, promote and conduct research of international quality. This means that we attract high quality graduates and researchers and train them to international standards.
You should have an enthusiasm for research in the field of structures, civil 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
