fWe are engaged in leading-edge research in fundamental fluid dynamics, as applied particularly to computational aeroacoustics, applied aerodynamics, and environmental flow and dispersion. We enjoy close connections to the aerospace industry, and have Defence and Aerospace Research Partnership (DARP) status in Rotorcraft Aeromechanics, and in Modelling and Simulation of Turbulence and Transition for Aerospace. We host the UK Turbulence Consortium, exploiting national high-performance computing resources for simulation of turbulent flows.
