A symposium in the U.S. National Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, June 25-30, 2006

organized by Ben R. Hodges

Free Surface Flows

Free surfaces are both a boundary condition and a subject of interest in themselves for a variety of naturally-occuring and engineering flows. The deformability of a free surface creates difficulties for models, laboratory and field studies. This session solicits contributions discussing the latest advances in understanding and studying fluid flows where a free surface plays a dynamic role.t.

In McMat 2005, this session had 14 excellent presentations with 7 accompanying papers. A list of authors is <here>. I hope we can keep both the quantity and quality in Boulder!

USNCTAM 2006

US National Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics

at University of Colorado, Boulder, June 25-30, 2006

Conference web site:
http://usnctam06.colorado.edu/

Form of contributions:
This has yet to be officially announced (as of July 2005). However, in keeping with past experience, it is likely that contributions may either be an abstract (1 page) or a paper (6 pages). Conference proceedings are (most likely) a printed volume of abstracts and a CD-ROM of abstracts and papers. Copyrights on papers remain with the authors. Papers will be selected based on review of short abstracts (due Nov 30 - submit on conference web site)

This conference is also the annual conference of the ASCE Engineering Mechanics Division
