• Dr Prashant Valluri is leading "Multiphase flows and transport phenomena" (co-led by UCL)
• Prof Jason Reese is leading "Multi-scale and non-continuum flows" (co-led by Warwick University)
• Dr Dong-hyuk Shin is leading "Turbulent free shear flows" (co-led by Leicester University)

These three SIGs bring together leading experts from more than 30 UK universities and over 15 companies to help define the future research agenda, influence policy-makers, train young researchers, promote scientific advances, and accelerate technological impact.

Also, the following Schools in the College of Science and Engineering have been selected to co-lead:

• Dr Eliza Calder (Geosciences) co-leads the SIG on "Granular flows in the environment and industry"
• Dr Alexander Morozov (Physics) co-leads the SIG on "Non-Newtonian fluid mechanics"

The UK Fluids Network is funded by EPSRC to create a national collaborative network of academic and industrial groups, focused on innovation in flow systems research and development.

Dr Ton van den Bremer is Edinburgh's representative and a member of the UK Fluid Networks Advisory Board.
