Notre Dame Creates Center for Flow Physics and Control Building on a tradition of achievement in aerodynamics that dates back to 1882, the University of Notre Dame has formed the Center for Flow Physics and Control. The mission of the center is to foster the efforts of individual investigators, as well as multidisciplinary research teams, in the fields of flow diagnostics, prediction, and control. Research within the center will address five main areas: aero-optics, aero-acoustics, fluid-structure interactions, multiphase flows, and flow control. Facilities of the center are located in the Hessert Center for Aerospace Research, a 40,000-sq.-ft. building that houses numerous specialized laboratories and equipment, including high-quality subsonic, transonic, and supersonic wind tunnels; a high-speed heated anechoic jet facility; an anechoic open-jet wind tunnel; and an atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel. The center is comprised of faculty from five departments across the University -- aerospace and mechanical engineering, civil engineering and geological sciences, computer science and engineering, electrical engineering, and physics. Thomas C. Corke, Clark Equipment Professor of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering, serves as center director.
