Turbulence theory has its attractions. At its purest level, it offers a traditional theoretical physics project, in which one tackles the many-body problem (as posed in a particularly elegant form) by analytical methods. On the other hand, it also offers opportunities in computational physics, in a fascinating but relatively uncrowded field. Projects in between these extremes are also available, but in all cases students who wish to keep their options open should note that work in this area will be a good preparation; not only for any branch of many-body physics, but also for the general field of computational fluid dynamics, opening up opportunities in engineering research and even in industry. |
