The Centre for Modelling and Simulation (CFMS) is an independent digital engineering consultancy, providing technical expertise to help organisations create better solutions in pioneering new product development. With a full portfolio of digital capabilities, including design and analysis services, consultancy and IT infrastructure, CFMS uses digital innovation to help develop more effective engineering solutions.

The National Composites Centre was created as the UK’s Centre of Excellence for Composites Research and Development following the inclusion of this disruptive technology into government industrial strategy. Their task: to be recognised as a world leader in composite technology, accelerating the development and uptake of digital technologies for sustainable composites and growing the market for composites by driving innovation through collaboration and partnerships.

Located on the Bristol Business Park, Thales Alenia Space UK Bristol is also home to the main design development capability for Thales Alenia Space in the UK, a leading actor in the design of satellite propulsion systems, satellite subsystems and system design studies.

The wind tunnel facilities at the University of the West of England are operated and developed by the department of Engineering, Design and Mathematics in the Faculty of Environment and Technology. The department has two production facilities namely the supersonic and subsonic wind tunnels. The supersonic facility has a 1” x 4” test section whilst the subsonic facility has two test sections of 5’ x 7’ and 12’ x 12’. For enquiries relating to the use of the facilities please email or phone the Department of Engineering, Design and Mathematics.
