The Center for Environmental and Applied Fluid Mechanics (CEAFM) fosters research and teaching involving fluid mechanics by bringing together students, faculty, and researchers from the Whiting School of Engineering, the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, and the Applied Physics Laboratory. Research areas of the CEAFM faculty and students include fluid flow phenomena in engineering and science covering a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. This includes fluid flows that occur in industrial, transportation, and manufacturing applications, in ocean and coastal engineering, in the treatment of aquatic and air-borne contaminants, in planetary atmospheres and oceans, rivers, subsurface waters, and fluids deep in the earth's interior, in biological systems, and in the microscopic environments relevant to micro-fluidic engineering applications and to aquatic and atmospheric chemistry and biology.
CEAFM is proud to have co-sponsored the 64th Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid Dynamics (DFD). CEAFM personnel led the organization of the meeting with Professor Andrea Prosperetti serving as organizing committee chair, and graduate students and postdocs providing technical service and support to the many parallel sessions. This year's meeting had a record-setting number of (>2,400) participants, with up to 26 parallel sessions.
