The nine participating professors and their research groups have been working for years in the fields relevant for the different aspects of the “Windy Cities” main topics simulation / visualization, wind energy and energy storage. In the Joint Graduate Research Training Group they work together for the first time, enabling a holistic consideration of relevant research questions.
