Advances in Computational Fluid-structure Interaction and Flow Simulation ― New Methods and Challenging Computations

This contributed volume pays tribute to the life and work of Tayfun E. Tezduyar on the occasion of his 60th birthday. The articles it contains were born out of the Advances in Computational Fluid-Structure Interaction and Flow Simulation conference, also dedicated to Prof. Tezduyar and held at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan from March 19-21, 2014. The contributing authors represent a group of international experts in the field who discuss recent trends and new directions in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Organized into seven distinct parts arranged by thematic topics, the papers included cover basic methods and applications of CFD, flows with moving boundaries and interfaces, phase-field modeling, computer science and high-performance computing (HPC) aspects of flow simulation, mathematical methods, biomedical applications, and fluid-structure interaction. Researchers, practitioners, and advanced graduate students working on computational methods for fluid mechanics, fluid-structure interaction, and related topics will find this collection to be an authoritative and valuable resource.

Yuri Bazilevs is a Professor in the Department of Structural Engineering at the University of California, San Diego, USA. His research interests include: computational mechanics, fluid-structure interaction, isogeometric analysis, and multiscale/stabilized finite element methods.?
