TOPICS
The focus of the Conference series is mesoscopic
/ kinetic methods (e.g. LBE, DVM, GKS, and SPH) for computational
mechanics in its broadest sense. Specific areas include, but
are not limited to, mesoscopic / kinetic methods applied for:
- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), including Direct
Numerical Simulations (DNS), Large-Eddy Simulations (LES),
and macroscopic as well as kinetic turbulence modelling;
- Rheology for complex fluids, such as suspensions, multi-phase
and multi-component fluids, non-Newtonian fluids, electro-rheological
(ER) and magneto-rheological (MR) fluids (smart fluids)
and bio-fluids;
- Nano-scale phenomena involving non-continuum, surface-dominated,
low-Reynolds-number, non-Newtonian, multi-scale and multi-physics
effects;
- Computational mechanics of solids and structures;
- Computational multi-physics dynamics, such as flow-structure
interactions;
- Algorithms for High Performance Computing (HPC) engineering
applications.
The objectives of the Conferences are:
- To bring together researchers and practitioners from
academia, research institutions and industry to exchange
experiences, disseminate up-to-date information, and explore
new opportunities in the field;
- To expose young or new researchers to the state of the
art in the field, by means of, in addition to the Conferences,
short courses and the internet media;
- To play a leading role in reseach and development in
the field.
