FOCUS & OBJECTIVES
The focus of the Conference
series is mesoscopic / kinetic methods (e.g. LBE, DVM,
GKS, and SPH) for
computational mechanics in its broadest sense. Specific areas
include,
but are not limited to, mesoscopic / kinetic methods applied
for:
- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), including Direct
Numerical
Simulations (DNS), Large-Eddy Simulations (LES), and
macroscopic as well as kinetic turbulence modelling;
- Rheology for complex fluids, such as suspensions,
multi-phase and
multi-component fluids, non-Newtonian fluids, electro-rheological
(ER)
and magneto-rheological (MR) fluids (smart fluids) and
bio-fluids;
- Nano-scale
phenomena involving non-continuum, surface-dominated,
low-Reynolds-number, non-Newtonian, multi-scale and multi-physics
effects;
- Computational mechanics of solids and structures;
- Computational
multi-physics dynamics, such as flow-structure
interactions;
- Algorithms for High Performance Computing (HPC) engineering
applications.
The objectives of the Conferences are:
- To bring together researchers and practitioners from
academia,
research institutions and industry to exchange experiences,
disseminate
up-to-date information, and explore new opportunities in
the field;
- To expose young or new researchers to the
state of the
art in the
field, by means of, in addition to the Conferences, short
courses and the
internet media;
- To play a leading role in reseach and development
in the field
AREAS OF INTERESTS
The conference will focus on computational methods for challenging
engineering problems based on mesoscopic methods, including
(but not limited to) the lattice Boltzmann equation (LBE),
lattice-gas cellular automata (LGCA), discrete velocity models
(DVM), gas-kinetic schemes (GKS), dissipative particle dynamics
(DPD), and smooth-particle hydrodynamics (SPH).
VENUE:
The second ICMMES will be held
at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong.
DATES:
Conference: July 26 - 29, 2005.
Courses: July 25, 2005
