提案编号：CTS-0339546提案类型：提案人发起主要提案人：Hiroshi Hiduguchi，雪城大学第三届先进流体信息国际研讨会2003（AFI-2003）锡拉丘兹将于2003年11月21-22日在纽约市与日本东北大学共同主办第三届先进流体信息国际研讨会。研讨会将侧重于适用于生物医学和环境质量问题的流体信息学。届时，一群来自世界各地的流体力学专家和学生将在一个亲密的环境中参加，以加强深入的讨论。在先进流体信息的旗帜下，将探索流体力学研究和应用的新范式。 重点将放在信息技术的整合，巨大的实时和后期数据处理能力和日益复杂的数值模拟，结合基础理论。 特别是，主流流体力学与生物医学研究和应用的新兴整合预计将推动基础研究，并直接影响人类医疗保健。 室内和室外环境中的传输现象对人类健康有影响，但工程和医学研究领域才刚刚开始整合他们的研究成果和知识。 这个小型研讨会的智力价值在于带来生物流体和环境传输现象的国际专业知识，并促进基础和应用流体力学研究的新协同作用。顾问委员会的成员提倡先进流体信息的概念，他们也将为今年的重点领域带来更广阔的视野。欢迎来自美国和日本的研究生参加并在一个特别的海报会议上展示他们的研究。 希望参加者向学生和同事传播他们的经验。专题讨论会的会议记录将予以出版并广泛提供。

PROPOSAL NO.: CTS-0339546PROPOSAL TYPE: INVESTIGATOR INITIATEDPRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS: HIROSHI HIGUCHI, SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY THIRD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ADVANCED FLUID INFORMATION 2003 (AFI-2003) Syracuse University will co-host the Third International Symposium on Advanced Fluid Information with Tohoku University, Japan in New York City on November 21-22, 2003. The symposium will focus on fluid informatics as applicable to biomedical and environmental quality issues. It will be attended by a group of world experts in the field as well as students in an intimate setting to enhance in-depth discussion.Under the banner of Advanced Fluid Information, new paradigms of fluid mechanics research and applications will be explored. Emphasis will be on integration of information technology, vast real-time and post data processing capability and increasingly sophisticated numerical simulations that incorporate fundamental theories. In particular, the emerging integration of mainstream fluid mechanics and biomedical research and applications is expected to drive the fundamental research as well as directly impact human health care. The transport phenomena in indoor and outdoor environments have impact on human health, but the engineering and medical research fields are just beginning to integrate their research efforts and knowledge. The intellectual merit of this mini-symposium lies in bringing international expertise in biofluids and environmental transport phenomena, and promoting new synergy in both basic and applied fluid mechanics research. The members of the advisory committee have advocated the concept of advanced fluid information and they will also bring in broader perspectives to this year's focal area.Graduate students from US and Japan are encouraged to attend and present their research at a special poster session. Participants are expected to disseminate their experiences among their students and colleagues. Proceedings of the symposium will be published and will be made widely available.
