GEODISE is one of a new breed of EPSRC funded research programmes involving multi disciplinary teams working to build a state of the art design tool demonstrator.

The GEODISE demonstrator is intended to carry out engineering design search and optimisation involving fluid dynamics, and is bringing together the collective skills of engineers and computer scientists.

With potential applications in Aerospace the industrial partners on this project include BAE Systems and Rolls Royce. Fluent, one of the world's leading developers of computational fluid dynamics software are also involved in the project, as are a number of leading information technology suppliers, Intel (hardware), Microsoft (software), Compusys (systems integration), Epistemics (knowledge technologies), and Condor (grid-middleware). The academic partners on the project bring together some renowned academics from the Universities of Southampton, Oxford and Manchester in a range of specialisms.
