Applications are invited for a 3 year funded PhD studentship in Earthquake Engineering within the UCL EPICentre research group (www.epicentreonline.com). The aim of the studentship is to better understand the effectiveness of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) as a strengthening method for existing reinforced concrete structures under earthquakes, fires and combined seismic and fire actions. The study will involve the numerical modelling of reinforced concrete elements, strengthened (and not) with Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP), and subjected to cyclic and fire loading. The research will support, and be informed by, a programme of large-scale experiments to be undertaken by EPICentre and the BRE Centre for Fire Safety Engineering in Edinburgh as part of an Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), UK funded project “Challenging Risk”.
