International Conference on Fluid Mechanics and Industrial Applications (FMIA 2017)

Abstract

Preface2017 International Conference on Fluid Mechanics and Industrial Applications (FMIA 2017: http://www.icfmia.org) was held on October 21-22, 2017 in Taiyuan, China. This conference was sponsored by Asian Union of Information Technology, and was attended by academicians, researchers, entrepreneurs, government agencies and policy-makers, postgraduates from China and all over the world.FMIA 2017 is the annual international conference devoted to the discussion of recent developments and applications of parallel computing in the field of fluid mechanics, CFD, fluid power, fluid flow and related disciplines. The field of fluid mechanics is vast and covers numerous and diverse applications. The conference covered a wide range of topics, including basic formulations and their computer modelling as well as the relationship between experimental and analytical results. The meeting provided a forum for discussing new work on fluid mechanics and in particular for promoting the interchange of novel ideas and the presentations of the latest developments in this field. This conference will also provide an ideal environment to develop new collaborations and meet experts on the fundamentals, applications, and products of the mentioned fields.FMIA 2017 received 291 manuscripts, and 54 submissions have been accepted by our reviewers. By submitting a paper to FMIA 2017, the authors agreed to the review process and understood that papers would undergo a peer-review process. Manuscripts were reviewed by appropriately qualified experts in the field selected by the conference committee, who took detailed comments and-if the submission was accepted-the authors would submit a revised version that took into account this feedback. All papers were reviewed using a double-blind review process: authors declared their names and affiliations in the manuscript for the reviewers to see, but reviewers did not know each other’s identities, nor did the authors receive information about who had reviewed their manuscript. The committees of FMIA 2017 invested great efforts in reviewing the papers submitted to the conference and organizing the sessions to enable the participants to gain maximum benefit.With our warmest regards,Jun XiaoWuhan, China
