The objective of this 3-day lecture series is to provide a state of the art of High Performance Computing strategy applied in Computational Fluid Dynamics.
High Performance Computing (HPC) can be obtained either by increasing the computing power or by means of very efficient algorithms. Therefore, methodology and performance of intensive calculation related to recent progresses in parallel CFD and sequencing techniques as well as new HPC technologies will be pointing out.
Experts coming from the scientific, industrial and technological communities will discus their day-to-day experience in generating and handling Mega-Cell-Mesh, in Peta Flops Simulation as well as in processing and visualization of Tera Data.
Lectures will be devoted to complex situations involving massive DNS-LES simulation, unsteady 3D turbulent reacting flows for turbomachinery and aerodynamic applications. Moreover, field of aero engines and aircraft design, atmospheric re entry vehicles, industrial processes and structural mechanics problems will be also covered.
The course should appeal not only CFD experts but also newcomers to this domain.
The Lecture Series co-directors are Jean-Marie Buchlin, Philippe Planquart and Patrick Rambaud from the von Karman Institute of Fluid Dynamics.

FEE
The fee for the lecture series is 975 euro, applicable to citizens of NATO countries contributing to the financing of the VKI (Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Luxemburg, Norway, Portugal, Spain and Turkey). For citizens of other NATO countries and of NATO
partner countries, the fee is 1275 euro. For non-NATO citizens the fee is of 1390 euro. These prices include 21% VAT.
To encourage greater participation in our Lecture Series programme by university members, the Institute has established a limited number of VKI Lecture Series fellowships for citizens of NATO countries contributing to the financing of the VKI, as well as for citizens of other NATO countries coming from a university in a VKI financing country. The recipient of such fellowship is entitled to attend the Lecture Series at a reduced fee, which will be of 490 euro (VAT included) for assistants not having a Ph.D. degree and for Ph.D. candidates, or 225 euro (VAT included) for undergraduate students. The request to be considered for an award must accompany the application to attend the Lecture Series, and the applicant must provide a recommendation letter from his or her professor; if not done so, the request will not be taken into consideration. All possible alternative sources of funding should be investigated before aid is requested under this scheme, so that those most in need will benefit.
Location : von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, Rhode-St-Genèse, Belgium
From 5.05.2009 to 7.05.2009
