Proposal for Sponsoring in First International Conference in DNS/LES

摘要

This conference, sponsored by the US Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), was held in Louisiana Tech University, Ruston, Louisiana, USA on August 4-8. 1997. The conference attracted 93 participants from 16 countries all over the world including most leading scientists in the area of DNS and LES. Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) refers to accurate numerical solution of three dimensional, time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations for both flow transition arid turbulence. DNS is the only numerical approach dealing with the exact solution of 3-D time-dependent N-S equations without any ad hoc assumption and in which all time and space length scales are taken into account.
