  • PhD Scholarship: Rowing Simulation

    Australian Postgraduate Award (Industry) on Rowing Simulation

    This scholarship is funded by an ARC Linkage-Projects grant and will
    provide support for 3 years on a full-time basis for a research project
    leading to a PhD. The research undertaken will produce a "specification" of
    on-water rowing by characterising the magnitude and timing of the forces
    and moments experienced on-water. Simulator rowing will be
    computer-modelled. Rowing simulator agreement with this specification will
    be tested and modifications suggested for their improvement. The simulator
    will be modified and retested. The potential for injury using the simulator
    will also be assessed.

    Applicants should have an Honours 1 or 2A degree in biomechanics or related
    discipline. Experience/background in biomechanical testing and/or computer
    modelling would be an advantage. Applicants must be Australian citizens,
    Australian permanent residents or New Zealand citizens. The scholarship
    stipend is $23,294 in 2003 (tax exempt).

    For further information, contact

    Applications, including a curriculum vitae, academic record, proof of
    citizenship or permanent residency, the names and contact details of at
    least two referees should be sent to A/Professor Richard Smith, School of
    Exercise and Sport Science, The University of Sydney NSW 2006. Closing
    Date: 23 December, 2003.
