Join us at CWE2010.
Check out the abstracts that have been selected here
The Fifth International Symposium on Computational Wind Engineering (CWE2010) is seeking abstracts for presentations on all computational wind engineering topics. CWE2010 will provide a platform for discussing and exchanging the latest information associated with the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to wind engineering problems and the tremendous advances in CFD technology in the past several years. Each international symposium on computational wind engineering (CWE) reflects the scientific advances in the developing CWE sciences linked to rapid advances in high performance computing hardware and software. CWE does not necessarily mean CFD, but can include various techniques using computers. Presentations are also invited on full-scale field and wind-tunnel data aiming to support CWE developments, applications, and validation.
Both oral platform presentations and poster presentations are being solicited. Each oral platform presentation will include time for questions. Poster presentations will be set up in the atrium outside the meeting rooms for easy viewing during all break periods. There will be dedicated technical sessions where poster presenters will be given a few minutes to introduce orally their poster, followed by a viewing period. Presenting a poster can provide a very effective way to display your research and engage attendees. Awards for best student poster presentations are being planned.
CWE Applications for Homeland/Societal Security including natural and human-caused hazards and disasters is the theme for CWE2010. We are interested in all presentations on present and future applications linked to CWE models. We are interested in presentations that will explore and respond to the global need to integrate multiscale computational models with endpoints for human health and property effects.
We are interested in oral platform and poster presentations for technical sessions related to the plenary session topics. Four plenary sessions are being planned on special topics linked to CWE (cwe2010.org/program.html):
- Applying Computational Wind Engineering to Practice: Perspectives from the Political, Academic, Corporate, and Public Sector Community
- Trends in High Performance Computing for Wind Engineering
- Development, Validation, and Application of Atmospheric Boundary Layer Models and Turbulence Models for CWE
- Coupling Computational Wind Engineering and Mesoscale Meteorological Models
Topics
Presentations are desired for all topics related to computational wind engineering application including, but not limited to:
- Homeland Security (societal) needs for CWE
- Linking human health effects and property damage with CWE
