  • International Symposium of Cavitation and Multiphase Flow (ISCM 2014) Tsinghua University, Beijing, China October 18Th – 21Th
    Second Announcement Beijing, the Capital of China Purpose International Symposium of Cavitation and Cavitation and multiphase flow is one of paramount topics of fluid mechanics with many applications in engineering covering a broad Multiphase Flow range of topics, e.g., hydraulic machinery, biomedical engineering, (ISCM 2014) chemical and process industry. In order to improve the performances of engineering facilities (e.g. hydraulic turbines) and to accelerate the development of techniques for medical treatment of serious diseases (e.g. tumours), it is essential to improve our understanding of multiphase and cavitation flows. For example, the present development towards the erosion control, and higher efficiency and stability of the hydrodynamic systems (e.g. space engine, propeller, hydraulic machinery system) often requires that the systems run in cavitating conditions, and that the risk of cavitation erosion needs to be controlled. Tsinghua University, Beijing, China October 18th – 21th, 2014 Beijing has served as the capital of China for more than 800 years. The purpose of the ISCM 2014 is to discuss the state-of-the-art The city is full of places of historic interest and scenic beauty, e.g. Qinghua Garden, 100084, Beijing, China cavitation and multiphase flow research and their up-to-date the Forbidden City (the largest and best-preserved ancient applications, and to foster discussion and exchange of knowledge, and architectural complex in the world), the Temple of Heaven (the to provide an opportunity for the researchers, engineers and graduate place for emperors of Ming and Qing dynasty performing solemn students to report their latest outputs in these fields.
