Call for volunteers: Needed: LIFD and CDT Fluid Dynamics PhD student volunteers for the ‘future climate engineers’ outreach project. Funding: LIFD have invested a good amount of funding, and it is being supported by a number of industry partners (Arup, Environment Agency, JBA Consulting). Your time will be paid for by the funding we have been awarded...
Congratulations to CDT student Luke Driver who was awarded Editor's Pick for his recent publication "Developing a Predictive Model for Low Temperature Laval Nozzles with Applications in Chemical Kinetics" in AIP Physics of Fluids.
The annual CDT Fluid Dynamics Symposium took place on Thursday 13 June 2024. The symposium was a great success, facilitating cross-disciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange within the fluid dynamics community, spanning both academic and industrial sectors. Mostafa Soroor was awarded first prize for his poster and Jo Kershaw was awarded the runner up prize. To...
Our first year CDT Fluid Dynamics students took part in this year's Be Curious outreach festival, alongside the CDT's Be Curious Associates Yatin Darbar and Luke Barratt. Their stand explored "how nature makes a raincoat". CDT Be Curious Associates, Atif and Luke, at Be Curious 2024. Photo credit: Dustin Smith, Skywall Photography.
CDT supervisors have been involved in the creation of a new cutting-edge facility at the University of Leeds, named as the UK’s leading experimental nuclear institution in the field of multiphase fluid flow. The only one of its kind in the country, it will help train the next generation of scientists and engineers in their...
A collaboration between University of Leeds, Durham University and Northwestern University, USA, has led to a discovery that may have solved a long-standing mystery about decaying planetary orbits around stars like our Sun. The study involved one of our CDT alumni, Craig Duguid (now at Durham) and Prof Adrian Barker in the School of Mathematics....
The University of Leeds offers a range of paid research experience placements and internships across its seven Faculties each year to support the progression of underrepresented students to postgraduate research. This year’s internships are funded by the Yorkshire Consortium for Equity in Doctoral Education (YCEDE). This partnerships aims to address underrepresentation in postgraduate research, open to...
The University of Leeds’ fluid dynamics expertise has been recognised in the UK’s biggest-ever investment into Centres for Doctoral Training (CDTs), receiving millions of pounds from a new fund. Leeds’ EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Future Fluid Dynamics, led by Dr Oliver Harlen, is among 65 Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) CDTs that will...
