Computational Fluid Dynamics for the 21st Century

This volume contains new trends of Computational Fluid Dynamics for the 21st century. It consists of papers presented at a symposium honoring Prof. Nobuyuki Satofuka on the occasion of his 60th birthday, which are especially useful to the younger generation of scientists and engineers in this field. Examples of topics covered in this volume are cartesian, gridless and higher-order schemes, optimization techniques, parallel computations, incompressible and compressible flows, multi-phase flows and solid/fluid interactions, magneto-hydrodynamics, and flow-visualization techniques.
