提案编号： CBET-0732580主要制造商：MENEVEAU，CHARLES V.机构： 约翰霍普金斯大学“研讨会：流体科学和湍流”该提案是部分资金，主要用于旅行和出席为期两天的研讨会是要评估当前的国家的最先进的研究在非线性物理学，流体动力学和湍流之间的广泛交叉，并讨论和规划未来的方向。拟议的研讨会将汇集领导过去几十年发展的资深科学家和代表该领域未来的有才华的初级科学家。资深科学家将提出权威评估和最新进展。初级科学家将参加广泛的讨论，并将在一组特定主题的海报会议上展示自己的研究。将涵盖的主题包括非线性物理和复杂系统的统计力学，高雷诺数湍流的缩放动力学，流体力学，壁边界湍流，高瑞利数对流和低温湍流的多尺度方法的发展。拟议的专题讨论会题为“流体科学与湍流”，将于2008年5月底在巴尔的摩约翰霍普金斯大学的霍姆伍德校园举行。同行评审期刊《物理学D》计划发行一期特刊。将邀请专题讨论会与会者向特刊提交论文。第一天结束时的研讨会宴会将包括向K.R.教授致敬的演讲。他是非线性物理、流体力学和湍流领域最有影响力的人物。

PROPOSAL NO.: CBET- 0732580PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: MENEVEAU, CHARLES V. INSTITUTION: JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY"SYMPOSIUM: FLUID SCIENCE AND TURBULENCE"The proposal is for partial funding, primarily for the travel and attendance at a two-day symposium are to take stock of the current state-of-the-art of research at the broad intersection between nonlinear physics, fluid dynamics and turbulence, and to discuss and map out future directions. The proposed symposium will bring together the senior scientists who led the developments of the last decades, and talented junior scientists who represent the future of the field. The senior scientists will present authoritative evaluates and the latest developments. The junior scientists will participate in extensive discussion periods and will present their own research in a set of subject-specific poster sessions. Topics to be covered include developments in nonlinear physics and statistical mechanics of complex systems, scaling dynamics of high-Reynolds number turbulence, multiscale approaches in fluid mechanics, wall-bounded turbulence, and high Rayleigh number convection and cryogenic turbulence. The proposed symposium is entitled FLUID SCIENCE AND TURBULENCE, and will be held on the Homewood campus of the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore at the end of May 2008. A special issue is planned in the peer-evaluateded journal Physica D. Participants of the symposium will be invited to submit papers to the special issue. The symposium banquet at the end of the first day will include presentations honoring Prof. K.R. Sreenivasan, a most influential figure in nonlinear physics, fluid mechanics and turbulence.
