Dear all,
I would like to share with you a couple of our recent papers that I think may be of interest for the wider community:

3D inverse design helps military OEM develop unique cooling fan
A U.S.-based defence contractor, an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of life support systems (LSS) for military applications, had a requirement for a custom fan to be integrated into its product line. With TURBOdesign1, the company was able to bring the fan design process in-house and reduce design time as well as production cost.
I would like to point you to the
