That is a very cool animation! Looking forward to the to all the new submissions to FLOW!

Interested in effects of particle shape on settling? There are plenty of applications from ocean plastics to glass recycling… Our work in collab with Physics of Fluids @ UTwente in Journal of Fluid Mechanics looked at settling of thin curved particles in quiescent/turbulent background. cup.org/2VNNc6o

Amazing PhD opportunity in Christina Vanderwel’s group to work on urban pollution in our very cool facilities!

We are hiring! A lecturer (Assistant Prof) or Associate Professor in Control and Robotics! ⁦UoSEngineering⁩ jobs.soton.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?r…

Looking forward to this!

Can’t believe it has been over 4 years, but, has been a great fun to work with Andhini.

Cool opportunity in our lab! Facility development, laser-based measurements, data analysis and possibly modelling!

Our new wind tunnel is now equipped with an active grid and a 3-axis traverse system!

Does particle shape affect mass transfer in turbulent flows? Find out in Our new Journal of Fluid Mechanics paper on Mass transfer from small spheroids suspended in a turbulent fluid cup.org/3m4cd86

We are looking for cheap 4-5MP resolution cameras that operate at 100-200ish Hz for PIV use with LED light source. Any suggestions from fluids folks out there??

New colleague in the new year!

⁦⁦Congratulations to ⁦Stefano Gambuzza who completed his PhD viva today! His work examined the effects of turbulence on performance of lab-scale turbines. Thanks to Majid Bastankhah and Davide Lasagna for examining his thesis. ⁦He is the 24th PhD completion from the lab!

Exciting PhD opportunities in our group!

Our work on generating homogenous turbulence using a randomly actuated impeller array is published in Exp. Fluids! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Boundary layer measurements over porous and rough surfaces by @prateek_aero and Dea Wangsawijaya in our new wind tunnel. This is a challenging problem on decoupling the effects of permeability and roughness on wall-turbulence. Hopefully, we can make some progress...

How does a dense cluster of obstacles affect flow and scalar transport? Experiments done by Claudia Nicolai and analysis by Dea Daniella Wangsawijaya now published in Flow Journal. cup.org/3tArscF

It was great to work on this. Thanks to Stefano Gambuzza for his work with Magnus!

Flight simulators, how wings work, paper planes and wooden gliders!! #SOTSEF

Stall-cells are 3D separated flows on wings that appear under certain conditions and affect the wing performance. In this paper by Francis De Voogt in ⁦Flow Journal⁩, we explore how a trailing edge flap affects the appearance of these stall cells. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

A sudden change in surface topography/roughness is frequently encountered by flows in engineering and environment. In this paper, Melika carried out systematic wind tunnel experiments and used the data to understand this type of flows..bit.ly/3c8NcXf
