1st Workshop on Computational Engineering: Fluid Dynamics

The workshop will cover several topics related to some of the applications of advanced computational fluid dynamics, including:

* Biological, biomedical and clinical flows
* Image processing and visualization of biomedical phenomena
* Non-Newtonian flows
* Environment and geophysical flows
* Noise generation, flow control and fluid-structure interactions
* Modeling and simulation of turbulent flows
* Transition and chaos in fluid flows
* Turbulence in reacting and multiphase flows

The UT Austin - Portugal Program (CoLab) is a long-term collaboration initiative between the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) and Portuguese research and higher education institutions. The Program, launched by the Ministry for Science, Technology and Higher Education, is focused on interdisciplinary research, advanced education and training activities in three major areas: Digital Media, Advanced Computing and Mathematics. All the activities of this collaborative program are funded by the Portuguese Science Foundation (FCT).

The CoLab Advanced Computing Program is focused on "methodologies and techniques in HPC, distributed/grid computing and large scale data analysis & management, to solve computational engineering and science problems".

The main goal of this CoLab workshop is to bring together PhD students and young researchers from the Portuguese institutions (universities or research centers), with internationally distinguished experts from UT Austin in advanced topics of computational fluid dynamics and their relevant applications.
