International Symposium on
Modern Perspectives of Fluid Mechanics



Date : June 26-27, 2009
Venue : Venture Business Laboratory, 3F, Nagoya University, Japan (Building No. 51 on the map)

Organizers
Takashi Ishihara (Nagoya University),
Katsunori Yoshimatsu (Nagoya University),
Naoya Okamoto (Nagoya University)

 

Prof. Y. Kaneda has played a unique role in the fields of statistical theory of turbulence, computational science of turbulence, Stokes flow and vortex dynamics.
He has stimulated and fostered all of these areas by his sustained scientific leadership.
The symposium aims to cover wide range of these fields and to celebrate the many achievement of Y. Kaneda in his career so far.
