Go with the Industrial Flow

This Mathematics Matters case study looks at how mathematicians can help industry to manage their use of fluids. Many industrial processes involve the complex movement of fluids, but predicting fluid behaviour can often be difficult. Mathematical models of fluid flow can help to improve manufacturing efficiency and reduce costs, whilst also enabling new applications of fluids within industry. The resource can be used by teachers to guide their students or shared directly with students to inform them about careers using mathematics.
