Second Conference

Objective

Fluid Mechanics is one of the most important subjects of human interest. To be more specific, it encompasses aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, vortex dynamics, gas dynamics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), convection heat transfer, flows of turbomechinary, acoustics, biofluids, oceanography, meteorology, glaciology, geomagnetism, continental drift, mantel convection, atmospheric dynamics, wind engineering and the dynamics of multi-phase flows. It is now well-known that modern design of aircraft, spacecraft, automobiles, ships, land and marine structures, power and propulsion systems etc is not possible without a knowledge of relevant fluid mechanics.

The conference provides a forum to advance the frontiers of knowledge, cross fertilization of ideas and removes the isolation among the scientists. It helps the researchers in exchanging the ideas for the diverse disciplines and in consolidation of research collaboration with the leading foreign investigators. This conference seeks diversity by being concerned with a variety of disciplines including mathematical, engineering, biological, medical, environmental, industrial, geophysical and other sciences. The influential topics will cover a wide spectrum of subjects including peristalsis, blood flow, gliding motility of bacteria, mathematical modeling, mathematical methods, industrial and environmental heat and mass transfer, deformable porous media, MHD, rheology and the mechanics of the porous substrate. Emphasis will be given to the original research contribution on mathematical modeling, analytical approaches and numerical techniques, simulations for more accurate descriptions, predictions, experimental observations and applications of nonlinear phenomena in science and engineering. The conference will provide a place to researchers for the rapid exchange of ideas and techniques in nonlinear science and complexity. It will be a source of motivation for young scientist and research students to interact with leading authorities in the subject. The conference will provide a bridge between R & D scientists and the university teachers for a better and homogenous growth of the subject in the country.
