Manchester Metropolitan University is a forward-looking university.

At MMU we are proud of the exceptional breadth of choice we can offer our students and of the University’s links with business, industry, the professions and local communities that contribute to the learning experience.

The University has a varied population, attracting students from a broad range of backgrounds and countries, which contributes to its lively and dynamic atmosphere.

We are based at seven campuses, five in the Manchester area and two at Alsager and Crewe - MMU Cheshire. The central Manchester campuses form part of the largest higher education campus in the UK and one of the most extensive education centres in Europe.



Centre for Mathematical Modelling and Flow Analysis

The Centre for Mathematical Modelling and Flow Analysis (CMMFA) was formed in 1993 and is based in the Department of Computing and Mathematics at Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU). The CMMFA undertakes research in the area of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and specialises in the development and application of computational hydraulics. Current projects include simulation of scour at the base of offshore wind turbine mounts and simulation of novel wave energy devices in extreme waves. The centre currently has 4 staff, 6 post doctoral research fellows and 5 PhD students.
