The 19th International Conference on the Discrete
Simulation of Fluid Dynamics (DSFD 2010) will be held in
Rome, Italy, on July 5-9, 2010. The DSFD series of
conferences originated with the historic 1986 Los Alamos
conference organized by Gary D. Doolen. Since that time,
the DSFD conferences have emerged as the premiere forum for
researchers in the field, and many exciting new discoveries
in lattice models of fluid dynamics have been first
announced at DSFD conferences.
Topics emphasized at the DSFD series of meetings include
lattice gas automata (LGA), the lattice Boltzmann equation
(LBE), discrete velocity methods (DVM), dissipative
particle dynamics (DPD), smoothed-particle hydrodynamics
(SPH), direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC), stochastic
rotation dynamics (SRD), molecular dynamics (MD), and
hybrid methods. There will be sessions on advances in both
theory and computation, on engineering applications of
discrete fluid algorithms, and on fundamental issues in
statistical mechanics, kinetic theory and hydrodynamics and
their applications in Micro, Nano and Multiscale Physics
for emerging technologies. Other topics of interest also
include theoretical and experimental work on interfacial
phenomena, droplets, free-surface flow, and micro and
nanofluidics. The DSFD 2010 program includes a series of
tutorial lectures on some of the main themes of the
conference. We wish to encourage participation from
researchers at all stages of their career, from students to
senior researchers.
Proceedings will be published as a special issue of
Philosophical Transactions A (Royal Society, London).
