This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 815044
SLOWD partner University of Bristol has just released an impressive video:
Water sloshing experiment on a single degree of freedom system for sloshing-induced damping investigations
This test has been carried out at the Airbus Protospace facilities in Filton. It aimed at investigating the effect of fuel sloshing on the dynamic behaviour of wing-like structures.
Two new fascinating animation videos have just been released by SLOWD partner University of Cape Town!

On the 11th and 12th of February 2020 the SLOWD Consortium successfully conducted its M6 Progress Meeting in Rome, Italy!
SLOWD has just launched its public website, which will be the main source of information about the SLOWD progress, activities, news and significant results. In addition, the project objectives, the solution proposed in order to achieve them as well as descriptions of the SLOWD Consortium partners are presented. It will also be updated with all SLOWD relevant documents, news, events and other resources on a regular basis.
The website is constructed in a simple and user-friendly manner, enabling the users to navigate easily and have quick access to the information.
The European Aeronautics Science Network publishes on a regular basis an electronic newsletter which is distributed to several thousands of researchers and scientists throughout Europe.
A SLOWD related article has been published in the December 2019 issue, presenting briefly the project, its objectives and moves towards their accomplishments.
