Imperial College London is a world-leading university for science, technology, engineering, medicine and business (STEMB). Across our London campuses, and throughout our international network, we use science to tackle global challenges. We were founded in 1907 with a mission ‘To be useful’, but we know that before anyone can usefully change something, they first need to understand it. That’s what we do here: We use science to try to understand more of the universe, and improve the lives of more people in it.
Role in the Project
The team will integrate Imperial’s open-source code, uDALES, into the EU’s Destination Earth Digital Twin framework. uDALES simulates airflow around buildings and vegetation at metre-scale resolution, capturing turbulence to improve estimates of urban air pollution and thermal climate. The work will help link detailed city-scale simulations with broader weather models.
