U.S.-France (INRIA) Cooperative Research: Mathematics and Computational Questions in Fluid Mechanics and Combustion

该奖项将支持美国和法国两组科学家在应用和计算数学方面的合作研究，这两组科学家分别位于印第安纳大学布卢明顿分校和法国国家信息科学与自动化研究所（INRIA）。美国小组将由大卫·霍夫教授领导；在法国方面，该项目将由Sophia-Antipolis INRIA的Bernard Larrouturou博士和巴黎南大学数字分析实验室的Roger Temam博士领导。研究将集中在一些有关反应和非反应流体流动的问题上。本项目主要分为以下几个方面：1.设计方案；Navier-Stokes方程和湍流2。反应扩散系统和燃烧问题的数值方法。反应和非反应可压缩流无碰撞等离子体流和弗拉索夫-麦克斯韦方程组这项研究联合了两组杰出的美国和法国应用数学家。INRIA因其在计算机研究、自动化、数学和科学计算方面的专业知识而得到广泛认可；它提供了这些领域的基础研究与工业合作的良好结合。这个奖项将允许在流体力学和燃烧理论的重要领域继续卓有成效的合作。

This award will support collaborative research in applied and computational mathematics between two groups of U.S. and French scientists, based at the University of Indiana at Bloomington and the French National Institute for Information Science and Automation (INRIA). The U.S. group will be led by Professor David Hoff; on the French side the project will be led by Dr. Bernard Larrouturou, INRIA, Sophia-Antipolis and Dr. Roger Temam, Laboratoire d'Analyse Numerique, University of Paris-South. The research will focus on a number of problems concerning reacting and nonreacting fluid flows. The project is subdivided into the following areas: 1. Navier-Stokes equations and turbulence 2. Numerical methods for reaction - diffusion systems and combustion problems 3. Reacting and nonreacting compressible flows 4. Flows of collisionless plasmas and the Vlasov-Maxwell Equations This research joins two groups of outstanding U.S. and French applied mathematicians. INRIA is widely recognized for its concentration of expertise in computer research, automation, mathematics and scientific computing; it provides an excellent combination of fundamental research with industrial collaboration in these areas. This award will allow fruitful collaboration to continue in the important area of fluid mechanics and combustion theory.
