Overview

AFM 2016 is the 11th International Conference on Advances in 
Fluid Mechanics. The meeting is reconvened following the 
success of all previous conferences in the series, the first 
of which took place in New Orleans (1996), followed by Udine 
(1998); Montreal (2000); Ghent (2002); Lisboa (2004); 
Skiathos (2006); the New Forest, UK home of the Wessex 
Institute (2008); The Algarve (2010); Split (2012) and A 
Coruña (2014).

The success of the conference continues to attract high 
quality contributions presenting original results. The 
evolution of the meeting is reflected in the variety of 
topics and applications published in the conference book 
series since its beginnings in 1996. The field of fluid 
mechanics is vast and has numerous and diverse applications. 
The conference covers a wide range of topics, including 
basic formulations and their computer modelling as well as 
the relationship between experimental and analytical 
results. The emphasis is on new applications and research 
currently in progress. 

The papers  presented at Wessex Institute conferences are 
part of the WIT Transactions in Engineering Sciences series 
and are archived online in the WIT eLibrary 
(www.witpress.com/elibrary), where they are immediately and 
permanently available to the international scientific 
community.

The object of the meeting is to provide a forum for 
discussing new work in fluid mechanics and, in particular, 
for promoting the interchange of new ideas and the 
presentation on the latest applications in the field.
