Attempting to understand the fluid mechanics of complex environmental systems (University of Western Australia)

[UWA Research @UWAresearch]

A group of cricket-mad engineering students at The University of Western Australia has determined how pace and spin bowlers can maximise the amount of lateral movement (“swing” or “drift”) they get in the air.

🏏🔥 Just in time for the 2nd #Ashes Test, UWA’s cricket-mad engineering students have uncovered how to maximise swing and drift — giving bowlers a science-backed edge on the field! https://t.co/iHyV85yaUk @UWAresearch @UWAEMS @enviro_fluids

Join us in IOMRC @uwanews on Nov. 9 (12:30 PM) to see the outstanding work of OCEN1001 students. There'll be documentaries, popcorn & chat of the highest calibre. And learn more about multidisciplinary study of the oceans at UWA. @uwaoceans @UWA_students

Fantastic recognition (kickstarted by @i_schalko) for a truly exceptional researcher, mentor & teacher (for me, and thousands of others!)

The first week of OCEN1001 Global Oceans Challenges 2023 is done and dusted: Scott Draper introducing the ocean, Marco Ghisalberti hosting the famous OCEN1001 Pub Quiz, Jurgen Valckenaere discussing how to best use AI tools and Arnold van Rooijen running the Family Feud quiz!

Peak alpha stuff from Punter here that @gradecricketer would be proud of:

✅ speaks only in sidemouth while looking disinterested
✅ Shuts down some waffle in one sentence
✅ Rounds down the oppositions score

RTP still terrorising England.

@DrSallyET @CWSS_UWA @IOA_UWA @UWAresearch If only! Would have to feed the whole thing through Google Translate, I'm afraid. @AndrewGuzzomi would be the go-to here.

Congratulations to @MichaelCuttler and Arnold van Rooijen from UWA Oceans Graduate School for receiving @arc_gov_au Early Career Industry Fellowships! Their projects will enhance marine park management and develop nature-based shoreline protection strategies!
