the Center for Fluid physics 
The University of New Hampshire’s Center for Fluid Physics (CFP) is a collaborative cross-disciplinary group of fluid dynamics researchers at UNH. The research represented by CFP researchers includes: analytical, modeling and experimental studies of atmospheric and oceanic waves and circulation processes, magnetohydrodynamic flows and plasma physics, turbulent mixing and combustion processes, the physics, measurement and scaling of turbulent wall-flows, vorticity dynamics, the behaviors and properties of non-Newtonian, biological and/or opaque fluids, and the development and application of the analytical experimental and numerical techniques required to explore complex fluid flows. The overarching philosophy of the CFP is that the best approach to applications associated with complex fluid dynamical problems is through fundamental understanding of the underlying processes. Over the long term, this engineering science/physics based approach is believed to provide the optimal basis from which practical engineering design and prediction methodologies may devised and reliably implemented.
