The Conference will focus on the application of modelling and simulation in
the aerodynamic design process and cover both current state-of-the-art
and future prospects. It is intended to cover applications across a broad
spectrum ranging from civil and military aircraft to automotive aerodynamics.
The Conference is targeted at aerodynamics researchers and programme
managers from academia; industry and research establishments worldwide
with the aim of bringing together aerodynamics professionals across a range
of industrial sectors for a balanced perspective of fundamental science
issues, and technological challenges identifying areas needing additional
research and development
This is in addition to presenting new ideas, research results, and technology
integration and validation, providing a forum for the presentation and
discussion of results and experiences with a view to the future enhancement
of capabilities.
