Yale is partnering with seven other U.S. research institutions to tackle one of the most frenetic phenomena in physics, and the universe - turbulence.
On Aug. 26, the National Science Foundation announced a $30 million grant to fund TEMPEST (Transformative Explorations in Multi-Physics and Engineering of Scientific Turbulence), a science and technology center focused on understanding and controlling turbulence.
TEMPEST, which will be based at Michigan State University, brings together physicists, mathematicians, engineers, and AI researchers - including Yale's Anna Gilbert, the John C. Malone Professor of Statistics and Data Science in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and Rajit Manohar, the John C. Malone Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Computer Science in Yale Engineering.
