AERO 2024 Welcome
The Conference Preliminary Programme is now available 
Online registrations are open - more information HERE
The 3AF International Conference on Applied Aerodynamics is an annual event organised by the French Aeronautics and Aerospace Society (3AF) at French venues between researchers of all nations leading an activity in aeronautics or aerospace.
It is an excellent opportunity for scientific exchanges between researchers from industry, research institutions and academia. Researchers from other fields are also welcome as the current theme englobes the whole transport and energy sector.
The 3AF Applied Aerodynamics Conference addresses each year a burning topic in the field of aerodynamics. It is organized on the basis of five sessions, each introduced by a keynote speaker in the field covered by the session.
In 2024, the conference will focus on emerging approaches in aerodynamics, taking advantage of massive data being collected from high-fidelity numerical simulations, highly instrumented wind-tunnel testing and innovative flight tests measurements.
The conference will cover both external and internal aerodynamics. The experimental, theoretical and numerical aspects, ranging from fundamental research to industrial applications will be addressed. This conference will consider problems encountered in the aerospace domain (both military and civilian) and in the transportation domain including electric air taxis and in energy production, such as wind turbines for instance.
This 58th Edition, hosted by the Department Fluid, Energy, Combustion, Propulsion (FECP) at the PRISME Laboratory of Orléans University, intends to gather experts in diverse fields to share their perspectives on Emerging Approaches in Aerodynamics.
