Collins Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney and Delft University of Technology, have signed a master research agreement (MRA) enabling bilateral collaboration across a range of sustainable aviation research opportunities, including advanced materials, hydrogen propulsion, advanced manufacturing and industrial design.

The European Research Council (ERC) has announced that Anh Khoa Doan, Assistant Professor in AI for Fluid Mechanics, will receive an ERC Starting Grant for his research on predicting and controlling extreme events in turbulent flows, such as the atmosphere or the oceans, with scientific machine learning.

The American Meteorological Society has elected Remko Uijlenhoet as Fellow for his outstanding contributions to the hydrometeorological sciences over a substantial period of years. In particular, his research on the development of remote sensing techniques for measuring the variation of precipitation in space and time, among other things crucial for the understanding and prediction of hydrological processes in river catchments, led AMS to appoint Remko as Fellow. One of the innovations Remko has worked on with students, PhD candidates and colleagues over the past 20 years is the use of microwave links from cellular communication networks to measure precipitation, particularly important in areas where little to no rain gauges or weather radars can be found, such as in the Global South.
