Background and Scope

FEF07 Conference Objectives

The Finite Elements in Flow Problems (FEF) Conference is the principal forum for the exchange of research results in all aspects of flow modeling via the finite element method. This conference has an extensive history that closely parallels the development and maturation of finite element methods as applied to computational fluid dynamics. The purpose of this 14th conference in the series continues to be the gathering of mathematicians, engineers, computer scientists and students for the exchange of the latest information on all aspects of flow modeling and simulation. The scope of the conference is very broad with coverage of theory, implementation, assessment and application in all of the major and emerging areas of fluid dynamics and flow related phenomena.

FEF07 Conference Topics

FEF07 Conference Format

The conference format will be a combination of invited lectures, organized minisymposia and contributed papers. Several plenary lectures are planned as well as some parallel keynote lectures. Organized minisymposia in four to five parallel sessions will form the backbone of the conference. Several minisymposia sessions for contributed papers are also planned.
