Preface
Turbulenceremainsoneofthemostchallengingproblemsinclassicalphysics.
The papers collected in this volume are the proceedings of an IUTAM Sym-
posium on turbulence, entitled Computational Physics and New Perspectives
in Turbulence. The symposium was held in September 2006, at Nagoya Uni-
versity in Japan.
The last few years have witnessed a rapid and dramatic rise in our ability
to compute highly complex physical systems. As in other fields, this has had
a major impact on the way in which we approach the problem of turbulence,
opening up a new phase of research by providing an opportunity to study the
natureoffully-developedturbulenceinunprecedenteddetail.Leadingexperts
in turbulence were brought together at this Symposium to exchange ideas
and discuss, in the light of the recent progress in computational methods,
new perspectives in our understanding of turbulence. The Symposium also
fostered a vigorous interaction between those who pursue computations, and
those concerned with developments in experiment and theory.
There were 104 participants representing 13 countries, and the presenta-
tionsandconsequentdebateextendedoveraperiodoffourdays.Throughout,
emphasis was placed on the fundamental physical interpretation of turbulent
phenomenon. The topics covered included: (i) computational physics and the
theoryofcanonicalturbulentflows;(ii)experimentalapproachestofundamen-
tal problems in turbulence; (iii) turbulence modeling and numerical methods;
and (iv) geophysical and astrophysical turbulence.
We are grateful to all of the participants, to the authors of written contri-
butionstothisvolume,andtothereviewersofthosecontributionswhohelped
improvethequalityoftheseproceedings.ThesuccessoftheSymposiumwould
not have been possible without the valuable advice of the members of Scien-
tific Committee and the excellent work of the Local Organizing Committee.
Sincere thanks are also extended to Professor Tsutomu Kambe, the represen-
tative of Japan in IUTAM, who encouraged and supported this Symposium
from the early planning stages. I would also like to express my thanks for
helpful editorial assistance to Ms. Mami Yamashita.
