A CSC studentship (2021) is available now:

Project Title: "Integrated Airport Airside Simulation, Control & Decision-making"

A CSC studentship for one Chinese student is available in areas of Operational Research, Machine Learning and Combinatorial Optimisation at the Division of Aerospace Engineering, School of Engineering and Material Sciences (SEMS), Queen Mary University of London (QMUL).
The Active Routing framework has been developed within the on-going EPSRC project (TRANSIT: Towards a robust airport decision support system for intelligent taxiing, www.transitproject.co.uk) led by Dr Jun Chen[1-5]. TRANSIT has led to three ongoing EPSRC Impact Acceleration Account (IAA) projects to develop a simulation platform to support Trajectory-based Taxi operations.

The proposed research will be set within this well-structured UK research environment and run initially in conjunction with TRANSIT and two EPSRC IAA projects. The project will capitalise on the real-world problem instances through the TRANSIT and IAA projects to integrate the simulation platform for ground movement with en-route air traffic control and employ artificial intelligence techniques (e.g. machine learning and fuzzy logic) for strategic and tactical decision making. The integrated environment and artificial intelligence methods will leverage the simulation platform capabilities to provide simulated performance indicators for intelligent airport decision making and enable the search for the best air traffic control strategies. Two major challenges will be addressed. (1) Modelling of air traffic controller strategies in air and on ground for current and future trajectory based operational concepts[6,7]. (2) Prediction and resolution of ground movement conflicts[8,9].
•        CSC will provide living expenses (up to 4 years) and one return flight ticket and QMUL will provide a full tuition fee;

•        Successful applicants will join the multi-disciplinary research team of TRANSIT and has chances to interact with world-renowned industrial partners e.g. BAE Systems, AVISU Ltd, Air France KLM, Rolls Royce, Manchester Airport, Zurich Airport and Simio;

•        The student will have the opportunity to join the Alan Turing Institute (https://www.turing.ac.uk/) for up to 12 months to boost their skills, grow their network and work alongside other Turing researchers;

•        Additional funding will be available to cover site visits and dissemination of the results at international conferences, workshops and collaborative universities (e.g. NUAA, BUAA and NJFU in China) and industrial partners.

About the university:

•        110th in the world and 12th in the UK (Times Higher Education World Rankings) and 126th in the World (QS World University Rankings)

•        9th in the last UK Research Excellence Framework (REF-2014)

•        A member of the Russell Group of leading UK universities

•        Top 10 in the UK for highest graduate starting salaries

•        9 Nobel Prize winners

About the applicants:

•        A top Master or undergraduate student (top 5%) in at least two of the following areas: Operational Research, Machine Learning, Combinatorial Optimisation, transportation engineering and control Engineering.

•        English minimum requirement: IELTS 6.5 or equivalent English tests.

•        Preferably from a top Chinese university (211 and 985).

•        Preferably with some decent publications.

The deadline for submitting your application to QMUL is 27 January 2021. If you are interested in this studentship, please contact Dr Jun Chen as soon as possible by email: jun.chen@qmul.ac.uk.
