10D08 Novel Numerical Methods in Fluid Mechanics
OverviewThe availability of faster computers, user friendly software, internet, and the increasing need to explore flows in nano- and micro-scales, bioenvironments, complicated geometries, and multiple time and space scales has required the development of novel algorithms and methods in Fluid Mechanics. We solicit academic and industrial contributions that highlight this development in areas including (but not limited to) biofluid mechanics, multiscale flows, multiphase flows, microfluidics, etc. using new algorithms, models, simulation concepts, or high performance computing, Grid infrastructures, etc.
