Prof. Peter Minev (Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, University of Alberta)

Prof. Oleg Vasilyev (Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Colorado)

Overview:

The study of fluid dynamics has driven the development of a multitude of numerical methods for scientific computation. As the sophistication of applications and associated physical models expands, the impetus for further developments is as great as ever. This workshop brings together researchers who make use of a wide array of numerical methods, adapted to a broad range of flows. It will provide opportunity to share in the latest developments, foster new collaborations and avenues of research. Each of the invitees will present a mini-course designed to familiarize participants with the fundamental ideas and challenges in their area.

Students and other researchers are also invited to present contributed talks.

Specific topics include:

- Finite Volume Methods
- Finite Element Methods
- Spectral Methods
- Wavelets

with applications in:
- Magneto Hydrodynamic flows
- Turbulence
- Ocean Waves
