Symposium: Fluid Science and Turbulence

建议编号：CBET-0732580 PRINCIPAL研究员：梅内沃，查尔斯V.机构：约翰霍普金斯大学“研讨会：流体科学和湍流”该建议为部分资金，主要用于旅行和参加为期两天的研讨会是为了评估在非线性物理，流体动力学和湍流之间的广泛交叉的当前研究的最新水平，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。资深科学家将介绍权威的评估和最新进展。初级科学家将参与广泛的讨论，并将在一系列特定主题的海报会议上展示他们自己的研究。内容包括复杂系统的非线性物理和统计力学的发展，高雷诺数湍流的标度动力学，流体力学中的多尺度方法，壁面边界湍流，以及高瑞利数对流和低温湍流。拟议的研讨会题为流体科学和湍流，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区举行。计划在同行评估的《物理学D》杂志上出版一期特刊，专题讨论会的与会者将被邀请为这期特刊提交论文。第一天结束时的研讨会晚宴将包括向K.R.斯雷尼瓦桑教授致敬的演讲，斯雷尼瓦桑教授是非线性物理、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.
