Our latest publication, working with colleagues in @swanseauni.bsky.social #CompSci on human-AI collaborative approaches for design is now available: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...

Had a great time at a "Back to the Future" edition of @quantum-sauce.bsky.social delivering a talk "Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads!" exploring my work in designing land speed record cars and spaceplanes using AI and the principles of evolution. Science + Art + Beer = Mind Expansion

Great Scott! A time-travelling trilogy of talks at @oldwoollen.bsky.social for #BackToTheFuture night! Kudos to @cern.bsky.social scientist Dr Kristin Lohwasser, aerodynamics ace @profbenevans.bsky.social & steampunk sensei Dr Robbie MacAllister! & thanks to our #Farsley crowd Next up: Christmas!

Our brilliant team working in Mechanical Engineering at @swanseauni.bsky.social on the “50% for the Future” project have created this super helpful video explaining why females are underrepresented in #Engineering and what we can all do to help turn this around youtu.be/LkD1xOeITfg

Was great to welcome so many keen and enthusiastic #FutureEngineers to @swanseauni.bsky.social #BayCampus at the weekend to learn about our range of degree programme offerings

Today, Dr Walton and I caught up with ex-PhD student Dr David Naumann at Airbus in Manching, Germany to talk #CFD, optimisation and high speed intakes

Celebrating the 1st birthday of the @swanseauni.bsky.social #ZienkiewiczInstitute #Data #AI #Modelling

Was great to celebrate Dr Igor Sazonov's retirement, after 23 years of service at Swansea University with colleagues from the Aerospace Department and beyond.

Leadership team of @swanseauni.bsky.social School of Aerospace, Civil, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering 2021 - 2025

Just under a fortnight to go until our annual 'Swansea University Space Research Symposium'. Tickets are free (but limited in number) and can be claimed at: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/swansea-un...

Still, even months on after the dust has settled, I find it desperately sad that #ReactionEngines ran out of money. What they were working on, and so close to achieving, was so impressive... www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Some gliders flew better than others... #LoopTheLoop

Well done to our brilliant team of #Aerospace academics and technical staff who have delivered out year 1 rocket propelled glider design project this week

We have the brilliant Dr Wei Tan from @qmul.ac.uk with us at @swanseauni.bsky.social #ZienkiewiczInst this afternoon sharing his work on mechanics modelling and #AI

Fully funded (UK student) PhD scholarship available to come and work in my group with Dr Xi Zou, exploring how we can exploit data-driven machine learning techniques for #CFD approaches based on the Boltzmann equation to be applied to rarefied, hypersonic flows. www.swansea.ac.uk/postgraduate...

This is my view for today, which means I must be teaching… boundary layer theory #EGH303

The Swansea University Space Research Symposium is back for 2025! Open to all... it will be a great opportunity to learn about the space related research going on across the University and with our industry partners. To book your place: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/swansea-un...

We're currently advertising a fully funded PhD scholarship (UK students only) to work in AI methods for solution of the Boltzmann equation for rarefied and hypersonic gas flows. If interested: www.swansea.ac.uk/postgraduate...

Great to see our year 2 @swanseauni.bsky.social #Aerospace students out having such a great time on the flight dynamics laboratory exercise this week in partnership with @cranfielduni.bsky.social

Back on the rails today… heading up north to talk fast cars, #CFD, and record breaking…

Great to be working with AntyCip at #Aerospace @swanseauni.bsky.social as we expand and improve our flight simulation capabilities www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JOM...

This is the final lecture after a 50 year career at @swanseauni.bsky.social for Prof Ken Morgan #EGM90 #AdvancedAerodynamics

Final accepted version of paper that demonstrates the results from a direct Boltzmann-BGK solution of the hypersonic, rarefied gas flows around a cube satellite: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

We have Dr Neil Taylor with us this afternoon on #EGM90 introducing students to the principles of hypersonic spaceplane design

Some amazing work is going on across the #Zienkiewicz Institute for Data, AI & Modelling @swanseauni.bsky.social - our annual report is now available to the public: zienkiewicz.institute/website_8b05...

Our latest work, using a kinetic theory approach to model the drag on a low earth orbit cube sat, is now published in the 'Advances in Space Research' www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

So pleased to be hosting the #EESW 6th form awards day at @swanseauni.bsky.social today. Inspiring to see so many amazing #FutureEngineers showcasing their work. #EngineersDoAmazingThings

Prof Haddad-Khodaparast joins us this morning on the Sustainable Aviation technologies module #EGM330 with a research seminar on his group’s work on aeroelastic systems for gust load alleviation

My colleague Dr Zoran Jelic representing #Aerospace @swanseauni.bsky.social at the Space-Comm conference in London

This morning in our Sustainable Aviation module we’re with Dr Spencer Jeffs learning about the work we do with @rollsroycegroup.bsky.social in materials technology to improve the efficiency of gas turbines for aerospace

We have Dr Anji Munnangi with us this morning delivering a research seminar on future battery technologies and how this might impact a route to sustainable aviation

Really pleased that Dr James Courtney from our Chemical Engineering department has joined us in #Aerospace this morning to talk to our Sustainable Aviation students about the hydrogen economy

This year, we launched a brand new MSc in Space Engineering @swanseauni.bsky.social We can accept students from a range of backgrounds including engineering, physics and mathematics. For more info: www.swansea.ac.uk/postgraduate...

Finally, a useful, honest and pragmatic definition of what a #DigitalTwin actually is (and the various forms) courtesy of Prof Farhat at #DTE-AICOMAS2025

Some lovely little spots to relax and reflect during the breaks in the conference here at @artsetmetiers.bsky.social Paris #DTE-AICOMAS2025

Some more excellent work being presented by one of our PhD students in the @swanseauni.bsky.social Zienkiewicz Institute at #DTE-AICOMAS2025

And we’re off at the #DTE-AICOMAS2025 conference. Over 1000 delegates gathered in Paris to discuss the latest developments in digital twins and AI in computational mechanics.

Let’s go… en route to Paris for #AICOMAS2025 where I’ll be sharing our group’s work on Bayesian and Evolutionary computational aerodynamic optimisation

We are honoured to have Dr Wing Chung Tsoi with us this morning sharing his research activities in development of next generation solar cells for our Sustainable Aviation MSc students

Our brilliant @swanseauni.bsky.social Race Engineering team #SURE have been out on the road sharing the engineering and design that goes into their #FStudent race car. Great job everyone!

First lecture of the new semester #EGM330 Next Generation Sustainable Aircraft Technologies

Good morning everyone… beautiful start to the day here at @swanseauni.bsky.social #BayCampus

Relaunch of #EGA302A aerospace design as we head into semester 2 and the detailed design phase of the projects.

And were all set and ready to go for another live session talking #CFD and #aerodynamics with the brilliant team from ExpertEd

#Aerospace meeting… we’re exploring and mapping the research landscape of the department

Here I am, attempting to say something intelligent about high speed aerodynamics: youtu.be/Y5NdiTssF5g?...

Reallly great to catch up with the team at #EESW yesterday. They are doing an amazing job promoting the opportunities within #STEM to children and young people across Wales: youtu.be/vhVqB4n02nQ?...

Happy Thursday sunrise from my office at @swanseauni.bsky.social #BayCampus

There’s something very magical about an empty aircraft hangar. Great to be up here at Snowdonia Space Centre exploring future collaboration opportunities with #Aerospace @swanseauni.bsky.social

We have a fully funded PhD position open in our group at #Aerospace @swanseauni.bsky.social to work on a project which will use data-driven AI/ML approaches to advance our capabilities in modelling of rarefied, hypersonic gas flows. For more details: www.swansea.ac.uk/postgraduate...
