Abstract
The 3rd meeting on “Viscoplastic Fluids: From Theory to Application” was held in the lovely coastal city of Limassol, Cyprus. It was organized by the Hellenic Society of Rheology, under the auspices of ESR, with the help and encouragement of Neil Balmforth and Ian Frigaard, who organized the 1st meeting held in Banff, Canada (22–27 October 2005). The 2nd meeting took place in Monte Verita, Switzerland (14–18 October 2007). The goal of these workshops is to promote interactions between people from different communities working on viscoplastic fluids. With 50 registered participants from 13 countries (see Table 1 and Fig. 1), the workshop was really an international event. The scientific program consisted of 28 oral communications, five poster contributions, and three invited talks. The workshop spanned different topics, such as physical processes involved in yielding, fluid mechanics, and industrial and other applications. All aspects were studied through experiments, numerical simulation, and mathematical modelling. A brief summary of the different presentations follows.
