Virtual Fluids
Zone C: Tempe campus

Fluid flows surround us and impact our lives in many ways. This makes the task of predicting fluid motion very crucial in engineering applications. Thanks to modern computing power, researchers can simulate fluid motion on computers for a variety of applications going from aeronautics to coastal engineering. Virtual Reality is used to sort through and visualize the massive amount of data generated from these simulations. Participants in this activity will be immersed in a virtual laboratory using a VR headset. Within this virtual space, they will be able to interact with their whole bodies with sample simulation data generated by Kasbaoui Research Group, specializing in high-fidelity and large-scale simulations of fluid flows.
