PhD Studentship in Civil Engineering Department of Civil and Offshore Engineering, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh The research project will entail the numerical modelling of two-phase flow, in particular, the generation, and mechanisms of migration, of gas (carbon dioxide and methane) and leachate from a landfill site. An understanding of the finite element method or the control volume numerical solution technique would be an advantage. In order to attract the very best candidates, the department will make maintenance payments of £7000 per annum (EPSRC studentships are currently £5455 per annum). Potential applicants should be of a high calibre with a first class or upper second class honours degree in engineering, applied science, mathematics or a related field. Further details are available at: http://www.civ.hw.ac.uk/millennium.html Application forms can be obtained from: The Postgraduate Secretary, Department of Civil and Offshore Engineering, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, EH14 4AS For more information, or an informal discussion of the research project, potential applicants can contact me at the following address: Dr. William Ferguson, Department of Civil and Offshore Engineering, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh EH14 4AS Tel: 0131 - 449 - 5111 Ext. 4408 Fax: 0131 - 451 - 5078 Email: [log in to unmask] ----------------------------------------- Dr. William Ferguson Dept. of Civil and Offshore Engineering, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh EH14 4AS Tel: 0131-449-5111 Ext. 4408 Fax: 0131-451-5078 Email: [log in to unmask] ----------------------------------------- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
