The GAMM Committee for Efficient Numerical Methods for Par- tial Differential Equations (GAMM-FachausschuB "Effiziente numerische Verfahren fUr partielle Differenzialgleichungen") organizes conferences and seminars on subjects concerning the algorithmic treatment of partial differential equation prob- lems. The first seminar "Efficient Solution of Elliptic Systems" was followed by a second one held at the University of Kiel from January 17th to January 19th, 1986. The title was "Efficient Numerical Methods in Continuum Mechanics." The equations arising in continuum mechanics have many con-...

This book is the closing report of the national priority program Nature-Inspired Fluid Mechanics (Schwerpunktprogramm SPP 1207: Stromungsbeeinflussung in der Natur und Technik). Nature-inspired fluid mechanics is one subset of biomimetics, a discipline which has received increased attention over the last decade, with numerous faculties and degree courses devoted solely to exploring 'nature as a model' for engineering applications. To save locomotion energy, evolution has optimized the design of animals such that friction loss is minimized. In addition to many morphological...

The book presents a snapshot of the state-of-art in the field of turbulence modeling and covers the latest developments concerning direct numerical simulations, large eddy simulations, compressible turbulence, coherent structures, two-phase flow simulation and other related topics. It provides readers with a comprehensive review of both theory and applications, describing in detail the authors' own experimental results. The book is based on the proceedings of the third Turbulence and Interactions Conference (TI 2012), which was held on June 11-14 in La Saline-les-Bains, La Reunion, France...

This volume contains the proceedings of the Ninth GAMM-Conference on Numerical Methods in Fluid Mechanics, held at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Switzerland, on September 25-27, 1991. This conference, as weil as the preceding eight ones, was organized by the GAMM Committee on Numerical Methods in Fluid Dynamics. 1t was probably also the last one in this successful series of conferences, since in the future, a bi-annual European meeting on Computational Fluid Dynamics will be organized by ECCOMAS, a new organization, representing all existing European professional societies...
