The conference covers all relevant subjects with practical and industrial issues as one of the traditional highlights. Keywords are: industrial applications, turbulence, reactive flow, multiphase flow, multiphysics flow, environmental flow, parallel unstructured solvers, parallel mesh generation, parallel flow visualization, parallel software tools, parallel performance monitoring and parallel linear solvers for implicit fluid problems (domain decomposition, multigrid, Krylov methods). In 2001 special attention will be paid to multidisciplinary questions using parallel computers for their solution and the use of parallel flow solvers as a building block therein (optimal design, parameter sensitivity, parameter estimation, reliability analysis).

Industrial day:

At Tuesday May 22. ParCFD 2001 will host a MACSInet Industrial Day, jointly organized with the working group 'Affordable Computing' of MACSInet. The program is mainly plenary, involves top experts from industry and scientific institutions, and will present the state of the art in relation with present and future needs for both hardware, software and target problems. The program includes a round-table, an exhibition and promotional activities. The preliminary program of this day is available below. A reduced fee is offered for attending May 22 only.

    - On site at the conference. 

The registration fee is Dfl 1000 with a surcharge of Dfl 150 for registrations made after April 15, 2001. This includes admission to all technical sessions and social events, including the conference dinner on Tuesday, the buffet dinner on Monday, the welcome reception at Sunday and three lunches, as well as a book of abstracts and the proceedings of the conference. For attendance of May 22 only, we can offer a reduced fee of Dfl 450, including admission on May 22, one lunch and conference dinner, the book of abstracts and the conference proceedings.

Rooms are available at the conference hotel at a daily rate of Dfl 150 for a single room and Dfl 210 for a double room (including breakfast, excluding tourist tax). Reservations should be made via the conference secretariat. Rooms are guaranteed for reservations made before April 15, 2001. Reservations after that date can only be taken into account if rooms are still available.

Delft University and AMIF-ESF have decided to support junior researchers, contributing actively to the meeting.Junior researchers are researchers that do not yet have a permanent position. Written applications must be submitted to the conference secretariat with an accompanying letter from the institute/supervisor confirming the junior researcher status. Deadline of submission is April 01, 2001. A grant, covering the registration fee and lodging expenses for three nights at Hotel Zuiderduin, is offered. Support will be given as long as resources permit. Applications will be treated on a first-come,first-served basis.

Transport to Hotel Zuiderduin

By train/taxi: From Schiphol Airport to train station Amsterdam Sloterdijk (approx. 10 min., four trains each hour). At train station Amsterdam Sloterdijk, take a train to Alkmaar/Den Helder, and exit at train station Heiloo (approx. 30 min., three trains each hour). Take a taxi to Egmond aan Zee (10 min.). Details on how to obtain cheap tickets for the taxi (below Euro 5) will be presented in due course. Details on the train schedule can be found here.

By car: Leave Schiphol via A4 in the direction Amsterdam. Switch directly to A9 in the direction Haarlem/Alkmaar. At roundabout Alkmaar take direction Heiloo/Den Helder. After third traffic ligth turn left to Egmond. Follow signs Egmond aan Zee. In Egmond aan Zee drive straigth onto the Y-junction. Follow sign "centrum'. Follow sign "Strand-Zuid" to the "Admiraal de Ruyterweg" which moves straight onto the "Zeeweg".
