1540495(KUNZ)该提案寻求资金用于支付学生与会者的部分出版费用和旅费，该会议将于2015年6月15-17日在宾夕法尼亚州立大学举行，主题为“复杂湍流模拟中不同尺度的模型集成国际会议”。这次专门的研讨会将由多尺度湍流模拟领域的世界领导人参加。研讨会的重点将是新的研究思路、方法和方向。它还将促进研究人员之间的思想交流和这些领域的合作。将在本次研讨会上介绍的研究将有助于更好地理解一些影响能源、生物医学、国防和环境科学的问题，这些问题已经依赖于复杂的湍流现象。会议的主题包括：1)模拟壁面湍流中表面粘性层和外部湍流区之间的界面；2)“RANS类”、“URANS类”和“LES类”模型之间的基本区别；3)强迫非定常非平衡高雷诺数边界层流动的物理；4)地球物理湍流中中微尺度耦合的模拟；5)表面通量模型(动量、热量等)。当表面粘性层(S)由于粗糙而不能分辨或不存在时，6)大尺度非定常空间变化湍流环境与小尺度高雷诺数边界之间的相互作用的模拟，7)海面与内波的相互作用，8)高度各向异性分层湍流中的输送和混合，9)生物地球化学组分的湍流通量，10)复杂非平稳不同湍流尺度之间的耦合的野外和实验室实验。

1540495(Kunz)The proposal seeks funds to partially cover publication costs and travel expenses for student participants to the conference entitled, "International Conference on Model Integration across Disparate Scales in Complex Turbulent Flow Simulation (ICMIDS)", to be held at The Pennsylvania State University, June 15-17, 2015. This specialized symposium will be attended by world leaders in the area of multi-scale turbulence simulation. The symposium emphasis will be on new research ideas, methods, and directions. It will also foster cross-fertilization of ideas among researchers and collaboration in these areas. The research to be presented in this Symposium can lead to improved understanding of a number of problems affecting the energy, biomedical, defense, and environmental sciences that have come to depend on complex turbulent flow phenomena. The meeting topics include 1) Modeling the interfaces between surface viscous layers and outer turbulent flow regions in wall-bounded turbulent flows, 2) Fundamental distinctions among "RANS-like," "URANS-like," and "LES-like" models, 3) The physics of forced non-stationary nonequilibrium high Reynolds number boundary layer flows, 4) Simulation of meso-micro scale couplings in geophysical turbulent flows, 5) Surface flux models (momentum, heat, etc.) when the surface viscous layer(s) cannot be resolved or do not exist due to roughness, 6) Modeling the interactions between large-scale unsteady spatially varying turbulent environments and small-scale high Reynolds number boundaries, 7) Interactions between the ocean surface and internal waves, 8) Transport and mixing in highly anisotropic stratified turbulence, 9) Turbulent fluxes of biogeochemical constituents, 10) Field and laboratory experiments on the couplings among complex nonstationary disparate turbulence scales.
