The master thesis on the subject of the DNS analysis of warm cloud microphysics and related mixing dynamics at the cloud-clear air interface has been finalized by Davide Codoni.A simplified cloud-clear air interface is studied through a direct numerical simulation on a grid of 512...
The collision of water droplets in a turbulent cloud-clear air environment has been investigated in the master thesis by Mattia Tomatis. In this work, they emphasize the numerical measurements of collision kernels in homogeneous, isotropic, cloud turbulent environments but also in very anisotropic environments as...
The paper is about quantifying the amount of turbulence in the atmosphere. Turbulence contributes to many atmospheric phenomena, including atmospheric convection and clouds. Several methods have been proposed in the literature but they give over or under-estimated results especially when the atmosphere is inhomogeneous. The...
Another remarkable Master’s thesis has emerged from the European H2020 MSCA ITN ETN COMPLETE project, supervised by Prof. Daniela Tordella at Politecnico di Torino, within the Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria Aerospaziale (2020). The thesis focuses on the development of biodegradable mini-radiosondes designed to...
ENVISENS and Politecnico groups, especially our ESRs 12 and 15, Miryam Paredes and Shahbozbek Abduabiev, together with their supervisors Prof. Perona and Prof. Tordella, were finally able to carry out an experiment that was planned for a very long time. We should also acknowledge the...
The scientific community celebrates the remarkable achievement of Emmanuel O. Akinlabi, ESR10 of the COMPLETE Project, who successfully finalized his PhD at the Institute of Geophysics, Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw, in July 2020.Under the expert guidance of Professor Dr. Szymon P. Malinowski and...
ESR12, Miryam Paredes and ESR13, Mina Golshan, together with partners from Regione Piemonte and Prof. Tordella, visited Arpa Piemonte, Agenzia Regionale per la Protezione Ambientale. They discusses their secondment and future collaborations. Arpa Piemonte carries out measurements with radiosondes, in 30 km of altitude and...
Last week, our ESR12, Miryam Paredes and Mina Golshan participated in a poster session at Politecnico di Torino, organised by OSA Student Chapter Torino as part of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science #ThinkBeyondPink. She presented her work on the development of ultra-light radio probes...
The 4th Workshop and Training School on Data and Model Integration in Fluid Mechanics was held at Imperial College London from 16th to 19th December 2019, where all our ESRs presented their research work and attended classes dedicated to the field of fluid mechanics. It...
The ETC17 conference (17th European Turbulent Conference) was organized at Politecnico di Torino in collaboration with Università di Torino and was held from 3rd to 6th September 2019. The chairs of ETC17 were Prof. Daniela Tordella, Coordinator of MSCA ITN – ETN COMPLETE, and Guido Boffetta...
