Assessing the Commercial Feasibility and Efficacy of Autonomous Vehicles in Logistics: A Human Factors Comparative Analysis

This PhD project aims to investigate the impact of future autonomous vehicles (AVs) in the logistics industry. The goal is to reduce the challenges faced by companies in logistics operations for example, how to optimise hub-and-spoke networks to reduce lead time.

Stigmatisation and discrimination in transport towards individuals with disabilities: understanding how the effect on mobility and mitigating deleterious consequences with design

Research shows that poor transport design, whether public or private, can create challenges for disabled people and their ability to make door to door journeys.

Hierarchical federated learning framework for safe and secure connected and autonomous vehicles

This PhD project is part of the Cotutelle arrangement between Coventry University, UK and Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.

Numerical Investigation of Liquid Metal Magneto-Coriolis-Centrifugal Convection

This PhD project will focus on the modelling of electro-magnetic effects, in particular, clarify the possible role of Alfvén waves in planetary core convection.

Tailoring diabetes prevention for menopause

Increasing during midlife years, women are at heightened risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Adapting an existing diabetes prevention programme to address the menopause is one pathway worth exploring for giving support at scale.

Anelastic Coriolis-Centrifugal Convection: A More Realistic Local Model for Planetary Interior Processes

PhD position in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics within the project MAGNADO - The Magnetohydrodynamics of Liquid Metal Tornadoes.

Building strength in the menopause

This PhD will explore the ‘sitting less and moving more’ strategy with an emphasis on the incorporation of strength development for midlife women at risk of type 2 diabetes.

Distributed Multilateral Trust Model in 5G/6G Mobile Communication Networks

This PhD project is part of the Cotutelle arrangement between Coventry University, UK and Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.

Knowledge-Guided Machine Learning for Optimization Problems

Explainable AI for Computational Algebra

Multi-Modal Unreliable Information Detection through the Synergy of Natural Language Processing and Complex Network Analysis

Unreliable information, e.g., conspiracy, rumour, misinformation or disinformation, may (unintentionally or intentionally) mislead and misconceptualize the public against certain entities or events.

3D Generative AI Model for Industrial Discriminative Predictions

The objective of this project is to push the state of the art in specific areas of computer vision related to 3D point cloud processing in order to develop the building blocks of an online clothing recommendation system.
