INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON NUMERICAL METHODS AND APPLICATIONS IN FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTIONS
November 24-25, 2014, Grenoble, France

The workshop will focus on new research trends in fluid-structure interaction and is intended to provide an up-to-date view of recent results based on different modeling and computational aspects (ALE, Fully Eulerian, Lagrangian, fitted/unfitted meshes, coupling schemes, etc.)

Invited speakers:
E. Burman (University College London, UK)
L. Gastaldi (Università degli Studi di Brescia, Italy)
A. Iollo (Université de Bordeaux, France)
A. Lozinski (Université de Franche-Comté, France)
B. Maury (Université Paris-Sud XI, France)
T. Richter (Universität Heidelberg, Germany)
C. Vergara (Università degli Studi di Bergamo, Italy)
W. van Rees (ETH Zürich, Switzerland)
W. Wall (Technische Universität München, Germany)
