May has been quite a busy month, traveling around US for meetings and conferences:
- On May 4 – 6, I’ve been at the NETL 2010 Workshop on Multiphase Flow Science where I gave a talk on the progress made with quadrature-based moment methods for gas-particle flows in Prof. Fox research group.
- On May 24 – 26, I’ve been at a very interesting conference on Computational and Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering, in the Mathematics Department of the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where I’ve been kindly invited by Prof. Shi Jin to give a talk on quadrature-based moment methods for gas-particle flows.
- On May 31 – June 4 I’ve been at the International Conference of Multiphase Flow, in Tampa, Florida. If you’re interested in the paper I presented at ICMF, you can find it here, while the paper presented by Varun Vikas is here. Tampa is a wonderful place, with a very nice sun! I met some colleague from Europe I only knew by email before, and it has been a pleasure to meet in person and discuss of our work. I also had the opportunity to talk with some friend I did not see for a while, and to exchange interesting ideas with other researchers, which is always go.
Now, back to work
