Flow over objects, heading to the US and a maths conference

In a joint effort between Oscar and our CTO Dr Michael Negus, embedded boundaries have been implemented, allowing us to simulate flow over an object inside the simulation domain. Below we show an example of a von Kármán vortex street emerging from flow over the 2D cross-section of NACA 4 airfoil in the Vanellus solver, with vorticity being plotted.

Vanellus is heading to the US ????

To better connect with the US engineering ecosystem, the Vanellus team is heading west! We are stopping for a week in New York the week of the 29th of April, then heading out to the Bay Area for May and June.

Who should we be speaking to who does a lot of physics simulations? We are keen to meet with automotive, aerospace, biotech and energy companies designing new products. Let us know!

Oscar Holroyd joins as a computational mathematician

Oscar Holroyd is joining the Vanellus team long-term as a computational mathematician, as he finishes his PhD research at Warwick on thin film fluid control problems.

Vanellus CTO speaks at The Royal Society and visits the BAMC

Dr Michael Negus spoke to PhD students at The Royal Society, advising them on how to start a business driving the application of their PhD research. This week he is up in Newcastle, at the British Applied Mathematics Colloquium, the largest applied maths conference in the UK scouting for future hires and staying up to date with the latest research on computational methods for physics simulations.

Laurence is heading to the London Defence Tech Hackathon (April 20th and 21st)

Our CEO Laurence is heading to the inaugural hackathon where he will work on prototyping solutions to try and help Ukrainian forces detect and counter Russian drones. Let us know if you are going to be there.
