CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE IN COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

Objective

The mission of the Centre for CFD is to conduct academic research in CFD in engineering and environment and computing practice, and to bring the emergent, cutting-edge simulation capability to focus in assisting industry to do a better job of environmental , engineering and medical design optimisation. All the Marie Curie Fellows, MSc and PhD students and research fellows in the Centre for CFD, plus participating industrial scientists and engineers, conduct leading-edge research into the fundamentals and app lications of CFD in this world-class environment and thus promote rapid conversion of theory into practice. A simulation of computer-based software systems, using high performance computing has the potential to supplant the concept and practice of isolated commercial code installations, with their use restrictions, costs, upkeep and legacy numerical methods. As a broker of new and innovative technologies, the CFD Centre¿s academic members perform technology surveys and reviews. One-on-one technical assistan ce ensures the successful transition of new technologies to the public and private sectors. The CFD Centre also conducts, hosts and supports training, technical conferences and workshops designed to transfer new and innovative ideas in CFD engineering and environment, and high performance computing concepts and applications across industry, including small, medium and large sized enterprises. Members of the CFD Centre also furnish technical assistance to the shared resource centre staff to ensure the succes sful transition of new technologies to operating and programming environments. All of the Marie Curie Fellows attached to the CFD Centre will partake in this innovative research and most of them will be involved in assisting in the transfer of knowledge to industry and the environment.
