Past hosts have included the U.S. Air Force Research Lab and NASA. Speakers and workshops focused on a wide range of topics, all touching upon overset grid technologies, including unsteady and moving body problems, and emerging hybrid strategies.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0022I\u0027ve already met with some researchers who are doing work in Naval laboratories and in the biomedical field,\u0022 said Smith, a noted expert in advanced numerical methods and engineering analysis associated with unsteady fluid mechanics, applied to the interdisciplinary problems involving aeroelasticity or fluid-structure interaction.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0022It sounds very different, but the work they are doing is very complementary to mine.
