ESWIRP, via the « trans national access », will offer a unique occasion to research teams to have access to these facilities, and will allow them to realise some tests at new scales. The selection process will permit to new players to be associated with experiments in large facilities.

A first workshop has been organised 8-9 November 2010 at Cologne, Germany. The second one was on 22-23 March 2011, at Bardonecchia (close to Modane ONERA centre). The 3rd (at last) one is on 11-12 October  2011, at Zwölle. The call for proposal is now published (see the ESWIRP website, you can download this call from the home page). The deadline to submit your proposal is 16 January 2012. You are invited to present your project.
