Fluid•DTU was created in 2006 as a collaboration between several departments at the Technical University of Denmark working with different aspects of fluid dynamics.
The creation of the center was made possible by the grant Fundamental Problems in Fluid Dynamics from the Danish National Research Foundation (Danmarks Grundforskningsfond). The grant included support for a Niels Bohr Visiting Professorship for the late Professor Hassan Aref as well as a visiting scientist program and summer schools. The main research themes for Fluid•DTU during the five years were:
Fall 2006: Instability, bifurcation and chaos in fluid dynamics
Fall 2007: Interfaces, bubbles and drops
Fall 2008: Vorticity dynamics
Fall 2009: Fluid dynamics at very small length scales
Fall 2010: Complex fluids and solutions
Fluid•DTU has arranged summer schools with the title “Complex Motion in Fluids” every second year. The last was in 2019.
