The Turbulence and Interactions 2006 (TI2006) conference was held on the island of Porquerolles, France, May 29-June 2, 2006. The scientific sponsors of the conference were Association Francaise de Mecanique, CD-adapco, DGA Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), ERCOFTAC: European Research Community on Flow, Turbulence and Combustion, FLUENT, The French Ministery of Foreign Affairs, Laboratoire de Modelisation en Mecanique, Paris 6, ONERA. The conference was a unique event. Never before have so many organisations concerned with turbulence works come together in one conference. As...

The Turbulence and Interactions 2009 (TI2009) conference was held in Saint- Luce on the island of La Martinique, France, on May 31-June 5, 2009. The sci- tific sponsors of the conference were DGA Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), ERCOFTAC: European Research Community on Flow, Turbulence and Combustion, Institut Jean Le Rond d Alembert, Paris, ONERA. This second TI conference was very successful as it attracted 65 researchers from 17 countries. The magnificent venue and the beautiful weather helped the participants to discuss freely and casually, share ideas and projects, and...

The GAMM-Commi ttee for Numerical Methods in Fluid Mechanics (GAMM-Fachausschuss fur Numerische Methoden in der Stromungsmechanik) has sponsored the organization of a GAMM Workshop dedicated to the numerical simulation of three dimensional incompressible unsteady viscous laminar flows to test Navier-Stokes solvers. The Workshop was held in Paris from June 12th to June 14th, 1991 at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts et Metiers. Two test problems were set up. The first one is the flow in a driven-lid parallelepipedic cavity at Re = 3200 . The second problem is a flow around a prolate...
