About

We undertake world-class research in aerodynamics and mechanics of flight whereby technological advancements achieved in our group can benefit academia, industry and society.

天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载 interactive and collegial community includes experts in:

  • theoretical, computational and experimental fluid mechanics
  • data-driven modelling and control

Using world-class experimental facilities and in-house computer simulation and modelling codes, we explore the underlying physics of fluid flow and control mechanisms. 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载 aim is to improve the aerodynamics and flight mechanics of the next generation of aerospace applications.

We proud to host the Airbus Noise Technology Centre. We also work with 2 Rolls-Royce University technology centres which carry out research into:
