Various academic and research institutes in India have been doing R&D work in meshfree methods applied to fluid flow for past 20 years. Some research laboratories (notably DRDL, NAL and IISc) have developed their own meshfree method based corporate code for solving design and analysis problems in Aerodynamics. It was felt that institutions such as IISc, DRDL, NAL, ADA, JNCASR and TIFR-CAM where active research on meshfree methods is being carried out should hold Meshfree-2011 Conference for sharing their R&D work. This would also serve the purpose of encouraging young scientists and students to take up further work in this promising field. About 15 invited lectures of 45 minutes duration are planned.
Venue & Date: STC Seminar Hall, Department of Aerospace Engineering, IISc, Bangalore, January 10-11, 2011.
