maintains an experimental fluids lab for teaching and
research. Located on the 15th floor, it comprises several rotating tables together with
imaging and computing software for recording experiments.

Construction of the turntable was made possible by a grant
from the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) of the
National Science Foundation.
