Welcome to Issue 3 of the UK Fluids Network newsletter, a regular summary of the Network's activities and news from the UK Fluids community.



1. Call for Short Research Visit proposals

· There is a revised call for SRVs: https://ukfluids.net/srv.

· Proposals will now be reviewed in batches every 4 months.

· The next deadline for submission is 31 January 2017.



2. Second call for Special Interest Group proposals (Repeat)

· A new call for SIGs has been launched: https://ukfluids.net/sig.

· Before preparing your proposal, please see the results from the first call on https://ukfluids.net/sig, in particular the list of activities and outputs compiled from the proposals.

· The closing date is 31 January 2017.



3. Registration (Repeat)

· The Registration page https://ukfluids.net/register is now live.

· If you are a UK-based fluids researcher, please enter details about your research interests and application areas. You can change or add to them at any stage.

· This data will build into a searchable UK directory of fluid mechanics researchers, users, and SIGs (as explained in the UKFN Case for Support: https://ukfluids.net/admin).
