AFMS
International Workshop on the Mathematics of Sea Ice and Ice Sheets 2021
The International Workshop on the Mathematics of Sea Ice and Ice Sheets 2021 will be held at the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) on 9-12 November 2021. This workshop supported by the AFMS aims to bring together researchers who are experts in this field.
Pawsey launched CFD community of practice
The Community of Practice, which aims to give CFD practitioners using supercomputers the opportunity to share their knowledge and experiences while remaining connected around High Performance Computing topics.
Australasian Fluid Mechanics Seminar Series
The AFMS has introduced an online Fluid Mechanics research-seminar series to allow our community to benefit from participation in research seminars during a time of social distancing and travel restrictions.
AFMS Photo and Video Competition 2020
The 2020 competition's winning photos and videos are now available in the Gallery of the Australasian Fluid Mechanics Society.
Australasian Fluid Mechanics Conference
The 22nd Australasian Fluid Mechanics Conference was hosted by Queensland University of Technology and The University of Queensland on 7-10 December 2020 in Brisbane, Australia.
Fluid mechanics is the analysis of fluid flows. The air flowing in our lungs, the blood flowing in our veins, the lava erupting from a volcano, the air flowing over an aircraft wing, water flooding from a dam and the chemicals mixing in a pharmaceuticals plant are all examples of flowing fluids. Fluid mechanicians aim to understand fluid flows, predicting, adapting and harnessing flows for practical applications.
Members of the Australasian Fluid Mechanics Society provide service to aerospace, automotive, biological, chemicals, defence, energy, environmental, food, maritime, medical, mining, pharmaceuticals, sports, and water industries. We teach biomedical, civil, chemical, environmental, and mechanical engineers, applied mathematicians, meteorologists and oceanographers, continuing a 50-year-old tradition of excellence in Australian and New Zealand fluid mechanics.
Our 350-plus members are taking on the greatest challenges of our time in water, food security, energy, health, transportation, weather prediction and climate change, under the overarching imperative of sustainability.
