The year 1945 represented also a caesura for aerodynamics. Teaching and research, as far as not prohibited by the occupation forces, commenced slowly again at the end of the forties/beginning of the fifties. Many of the leading scientists and engineers were no longer working in Germany or had not yet returned, test facilities were dismantled or brutally destroyed like the wind tunnels in Brunswick in 1948 and institutes had been dissolved.
