Fifth International Workshop on Wall-Bounded Turbulent Flows

Fifth International Workshop on Wall-Bounded Turbulent Flows

Baltimore, Maryland USA, June 1 - June 3, 2008


Latest program is now available

Previous Workshops

Interactions amongst several members of our group over the last few years motivated us to meet for workshops at Princeton University in October of 2003 (Workshop 1), The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) Trieste, Italy in November of 2004 (Workshop 2), Chicago Illinois in November of 2005 (Workshop 3), and Erice, Italy in September of 2005 (Workshop 4).

The proceedings of the Chicago meeting are available as two documents: a Summary by Ivan Marusic, and Notes on Session 1 by Sreeni. The proceedings of the Erice meeting will be available shortly.

Fifth Workshop

The Fifth Workshop will be held in Baltimore Maryland, USA, June 1 - June 3, 2008. The meeting will be held immediately following the Symposium on Fluid Science and Turbulence held in honor of Sreeni's 60th birthday.

If you have received an invitation to attend, please register HERE.

The latest program is now available HERE.

The focus of the workshop will be discussion and positive participation from all delegates. The workshop aims to lead to a better understanding of high Reynolds number wall bounded flows, and a clearer sense of where, as a community, our future efforts should lie.

We will have four sessions, corresponding approximately to the topics of pipe flows (including the proposed CICLoPE project), roughness, organized motions and scaling issues. Following the spirit of the previous three workshops in Princeton, Trieste, Chicago, and Erice, some things we would like to emphasize are:

  • This is a workshop, not a symposium.
  • More time will be devoted to discussion than presentations, and the two need not be sequential.
  • Short prepared comments are encouraged, but please let the speaker know ahead of time if possible.
  • Preparing summaries of the session will be the responsibility of the Chair and Co-Chair.
  • You are encouraged to organize smaller discussion groups during coffee breaks, lunch, or after hours.
  • You are especially encouraged to explore future cooperative ventures.
  • More details of the workshop will follow as they are finalized.

    Looking forward to seeing you all in Baltimore, with best regards from the Organizing Committee.
