The Osborne Reynolds Oral and Poster PhD competitions offer
prestigious awards that celebrate the quality of students
and graduates who have been pursuing doctoral‐level research
across the broad domain of fluid mechanics including
turbulence, multi‐phase, stratified and free‐surface flows,
convective transport processes, combustion and acoustics.
Entry to both competitions is open to current and recent
PhD graduates from a UK university.

Further Details of Applications Process
Entrants should indicate whether they are candidates for the
Oral‐Presentation Competition, the Poster Competition, or
both – in order of preference (though no entrant will be
selected for both competitions).
- For the Oral Competition, up to seven finalists will
present their research at the event, the presentations being
judged by a panel of senior researchers. The winner will
receive the Osborne Reynolds Prize of £500 with the second‐
and third‐placed finalists receiving £200 and £100
respectively. Three of the finalists will be selected as the
UK entrants for the analogous Europe‐wide 2016 ERCOFTAC da
Vinci Award to be held later in the year.
- For the Poster Competition, up to 25 finalists will be
chosen who will prepare A0 posters that will be viewed by
those attending the event during the buffet‐lunch and
refreshment breaks. All attendees (except those presenting
posters) will receive stickers with their registration pack
to enable them to vote for the best posters. Those
presenting the best three posters will each receive £100.
Those chosen to present posters must attend the event in
person to respond to questions (a proxy display is not
accept‐ able)
- All finalists receive a certificate of participation in
Osborne Reynolds Day 2016.
- It Is expected that most presenters will through their PhD
project account or other sources be able to recover their
travel costs. Where this is not possible ERCOFTAC‐UK has
made a limited fund available to help with these expenses
for those whose participation necessitates a round‐trip
journey of more than 100 miles. Once the submission has been
accepted for inclusion in Osborne Reynolds Day, applications
may be made to Dr David Standingford briefly setting out the
case for travel support.
