Join our OpenFOAM Workshop Series (Spring 2025), a hands-on training program taking you from basic usage to advanced programming in open-source CFD! It will be organised by Dr Chandan Bose under the umbrella of the Birmingham Environment for Academic Research (BEAR) OpenFOAM SIG and the EPSRC IAA-funded Community of Practice – Open-Source Codes and Software Impact. This series is perfect for students, researchers, and engineers keen to harness the full power of OpenFOAM. Starting with case setup and simulation fundamentals, we’ll progress to solver customisation and advanced programming techniques. Let’s build a strong open science community together at the University of Birmingham!
