ParCFD 2001, the thirteenth international conference on Parallel Computational Fluid Dynamics took place in Egmond aan Zee, the Netherlands, from May 21-23, 2001. The specialized, high-level ParCFD conferences are organized yearly on traveling locations all over the world. A strong back-up is given by the central organization located in the USA http: //www.parcfd.org.

These proceedings of ParCFD 2001 represent 70% of the oral lectures presented at the meeting. All published papers were subjected to a refereeing process, which resulted in a uniformly high quality.

These lecture notes by very authoritative scientists survey recent advances of mathematics driven by industrial application showing not only how mathematics is applied to industry but also how mathematics has drawn benefit from interaction with real-word problems.
The famous David Report underlines that innovative high technology depends crucially for its development on innovation in mathematics. The speakers include three recent presidents of ECMI, one of ECCOMAS (in Europe) and the president of SIAM.

Proceedings of the Second and Third Joint US/Europe Short Course in Hypersonics which took place in Colorado Springs, Colorado in January 1989 and in Aachen, Germany in October 1990. These courses presented to chemists, computer scientists, engineers, experimentalists, mathematicians, and physicists

Edited on the occasion of Prof. Olgierd C. Zienkiewicz' 70th birthday, this book contains original contributions from eminent scientists dealing with a wide range of theoretical aspects of the Finite Element Method and its application to a variety of engineering problems. The book provides an overview of the state-of-the-art of finite element technology in the last decade of the 20th century.
