About the Centre for Fluid and Complex Systems
The flow of complex fluids and mixtures of fluids is at the heart of many industries. Our research focuses on novel measurement techniques for complex and multi-component flows, improving uncertainty through sensor diagnostics and close-coupling of modelling and measurement to allow end users to optimise their processes.

Showcasing FCS's funders and partners
The Centre for Postdigital Cultures (CPC), located within the College of the Arts and Society, explores how innovations in postdigital cultures can help us to rethink our ways of being and doing in the 21st century.
Studying opportunities within the Centre for Agroecology, Water & Resilience.
By using a drying technique, factories are able to turn virtually all plant waste into products such as mango flour and mango tea. This frees up dumpsites of hazardous material and has the added effect of generating more business for communities. The team at Coventry has now helped to streamline and automate this drying process by introducing a full end-to-end environmental monitoring system based on wireless sensor networks.
InoCardia Simulated Hearts for Testing Drugs
When drugs are developed to treat a particular disease or for human use purposes they sometimes have side effects that cause damage to the heart. Pioneering work by experts in our Centre for Applied Biological and Exercise Sciences is creating a revolutionary solution to this problem.
The Wholodance project’s innovative use of state-of-the-art technology aims to develop a range of new tools to help dancers investigate movement content in greater depth, to invent and preserve new dance compositions digitally and to widen access to dance.
Protecting the security and freedoms of citizens and of those most in need in society – whether they’re here in the UK or overseas – remains one of the foremost challenges we face. It’s a challenge Coventry University is tackling through research which not only reaches deep into communities across continents, but also explores and combats threats posed by technologies that have become integral to our way of life.
Intelligent products and processes
Harnessing the latest science and technology to pioneer new and more intelligent ways of doing things is a cornerstone of university research. Coventry University, much like the city of Coventry itself, has a successful history of innovating solutions and techniques that add value to our economy – whether through knowledge transfer or commercialisation of a new idea – and we remain at the forefront of intelligent thinking with our cutting-edge research across a variety of fields.
Experts from our Centre for Technology-Enabled Health Research, many of whom have decades of experience in social work, are using their insight to shed light and offer new perspectives on the aspects of our child protection system – particularly those related to equality – that are most in need of attention and reform.
Lion Conservation and the Human Lion Conflict
Our Centre for Psychology, Behaviour and Achievement is working with African communities, and the lions with whom they share a back yard, to promote the conservation that benefits local people and wildlife populations.
Working with a team of international partners, Coventry’s researchers led the first ever large-scale study into the backgrounds, experiences and aspirations of refugees and migrants entering Italy, Greece, Malta and Turkey.
Engineers and researchers have been coming up with a number of ways to tackle increasingly tough emissions targets and reducing vehicles’ body mass is one area they have been exploring. Coventry University’s Centre for Manufacturing and Materials Engineering worked with Unipart Powertrain Applications and the Institute for Advance Manufacturing and Engineering to look into this issue.
Master Gardeners Offenders' Intervention
Experts in our Centre for Agroecology, Water and Resilience are working with partners in HMP Rye Hill to encourage these same changes and benefits among prisoners in an effort to create a long term intervention for substance misuse offenders, and to help promote new ways of developing skills and actions.
National Transport Design Centre
Coventry University, over 40 years after launching the UK’s first degree in automotive desig, is giving budding transport stylists and industry professionals a boost to map out their future careers and drive growth. The university, through its Centre for Mobility and Transport, has created the state-of-the-art National Transport Design Centre (NTDC) to teach and inspire the next generation of vehicle designers.
