CBC Workshop on Aerosols: Dispersion, Transport and Effects - May 4-5, 2009

— filed under:

This workshop concerned simulation of flows with small droplets or solid particles (aerosols), a topic of great relevance to, e.g., drug inhalation, spreading of the swine flu, bioterror attacks, and effects of pollution. The first day, at Simula, featured technical in-depth talks on mathematical modeling, numerical methods, and discussion of results from case studies. The second day, at FFI, contained presentations of the main results to the advisory committee for this project. The advisory committee has members from the Norwegian Armed Forces, the Norwegian Ministry of Defense, Ullevål University Hospital, CBC, University of Oslo, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and the University of Cyprus.
