@uclmecheng @IMechE Well done !

In western cultures, Friday 13th is unlucky, but if you are Greek, its Tuesday 13th because it was the start of the sacking of Constantinople (Istanbul) in 1204, an act of such barbarism that the Pope still expressed sorrow for it 800 years later. So happy Tuesday 13th !

Critical layers and interfacial layers with turbulence play a central role in mixing, forces, sound generation and propagation. ERCOFTAC is running a conference on this topic in the wonderful Toulouse June 2023 with IMFT, UCL and University of Strasbourg.

@bayvel_p Many reasons and none good. UK talent pool shrank a decade back. Those willing to travel treated badly (pay 2k per dependent themselves for visa). Long term prospects poor : UCL now tells PhDs that chance of academic position less than 1%.

@vdiazucl a researcher creates a paper with a catchy and controversial title and stands back while the offended rant and rerant on twitter. everyone people get likes and comments, a few get angry. i'm just perplexed.

[Ian Eames @IanEames]

@a_vasylchenkova I guess you are referring to single author pubs? Try to have a few. Its a skill most academics lose and is what distinguishes ths best from the average in my mind.

[Ian Eames @IanEames]

@ProfRachelGaN Err no.

[Ian Eames @IanEames]

Our new paper on aerosols generated by dental procedures is out - I developed a new conceptual framework to understand the complexity of the fluid mechanical processes. https://t.co/1n4NhQCO7V

If you have time, try and get a copy of this months Mathematics Today - the monthly maths mag from the IMA. October issue has a some great articles from black mathematicians to coincide with Black History Month. IMA President Nira Chamberlain article on his journey is inspiring!

@mjb302 250 - unlikely

@CathNoakes @LeedsUniCivil @LeedsUniEng Lecture 14 looking pretty good. Well done on who ever invented the window. 2 terms of teaching left - almost there.

@bayvel_p @EU_Commission @coinproj @EPSRC @transnet_pgm @ucl @UCLEngineering @ucleeenews @MSFTResearch Thats an incredible number !

[Ian Eames @IanEames]

@linseymarr @CathNoakes Great paper and very interesting!

@jimmcquaid Sure its not just high tide? Photo doesnt support your comment but it does show a magnificent engineered structure that protects London.

Pipeline Guild - UCL are members - as always lots of interesting talks this term :
Webinar - Murphy Group : Global Pipeline Solutions in an Ever-Changing Landscape https://t.co/W4RohirabN

A joke from a former student: how to tell the difference between a mathematician and a computer scientist...you ask them both - what is the opposite of parallel? Mathematician says, 'perpendicular' - and computer scientist - 'serial'....

@owainkenway Its worth reading twitter but I would not advise joining in - its not real and reflects nothing.

Government message of dont panic has created a run on petrol. V. Long queues on all the fuel stations I passed. Also happened about 16 yrs ago. Implications dreadful.
