EVENTS: 

FROM: Radu Cimpeanu, University of Warwick, 17/10/2023
SUBJECT: Fluid dynamics meets synchrotron X-ray high-speed imaging
DATE & LOCATION: 21-22 March 2024, Grenoble, France
DETAILS: The primary goal of this workshop is to highlight the
capabilities of synchrotron X-ray imaging to investigate fast fluid
dynamic problems and to bring together both scientists who have
experience in using such techniques as well as those who would be
interested in considering using them. The workshop will be a unique
platform to foster discussions on which areas and specific problems in
fluid dynamics might benefit from fast X-ray imaging. The participants
will also learn how to apply for access to such a facility and how to
prepare and conduct a successful experimental campaign either using
environments available at the beamline as well as bringing their own
setups. Details of the event, the preliminary program and a list of
invited speakers can be found on the workshop website [10]. Registration
is open.

FROM: Christopher Ness, University of Edinburgh, 21/09/2023
SUBJECT: Dense suspensions of non-spheres at APS March Meeting 2024
DATE & LOCATION: 3-8 March 2024, Minneapolis
DETAILS: The physics of model non-Brownian suspensions has been
transformed in the last decade by the establishment of the
rate-independent rheology by Boyer et al. [PRL 107:188301 (2011)], and
the incorporation of rate-dependence through stress-controlled
microscopic constraints [PRL 121:128001 (2018)]. However, it is only now
that this insight is being applied to real world engineering and
geophysical suspensions, in which particles are angular, elongated,
fibrous, rod-like, and numerous other shapes. This session will gather
together researchers aiming to answer the question: To what extent does
our new understanding of the physics of spherical particles map to these
more complex systems? Links: March Meeting 2024 [20]; abstract
submissions [21]. The submission deadline is 20/10/2023. When submitting
your abstract, choose the DSOFT option, then category 02.01.04.
