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