PC Iberia
Purpose and focus of the Pilot Centre
The Iberian Pilot Centre (PC Iberia) brings together research groups from several Spanish universities and institutes, including CIMNE, UPC, UPM, BSC, UC3M, URV and UJaén. Its members are active in areas such as turbulence, computational and experimental fluid dynamics, and their applications in aeronautics, energy and engineering.
PC Iberia maintains close links with ERCOFTAC Special Interest Groups, in particular SIG1, SIG20, SIG33, SIG47, SIG48, SIG54 and SIG55 and contributes to the organisation of workshops, training events, and collaborative research activities, with a particular emphasis on supporting young researchers.
