The AETHER project is a collaborative research and training network funded by the 6th Framework Programme of the European Commission in the frame of the Marie Curie actions. The project represents an initiative to strengthen the fundamental scientific work in the multi-disciplinary engineering field of aero- and thermo-acoustical coupling in energy conversion processes.

The network is composed of 6 universities, 3 research centres and 5 industries, which are all linked through their excellence in engineering energy conversion processes. The common denominator of the network partners is their long-standing expertise with combustion systems.
