Flow Control and Aeroacoustics (FlowConAc) Workshop
July 10, 2023
The Flow Control and Aeroacoustics (FlowConAc) Workshop will be held on July 10, 2023, at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies in Toronto, Ontario.
The workshop aims to bring together industrial and government researchers with the academicians and MASc and PhD students at the University of Toronto and create a platform where the attendees can exchange their experiences and research results on all aspects of Flow Control and Aeroacoustics and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, needs and challenges related to the area.
Participation in the workshop is by invitation only.
