5th International Symposium on Computational Wind Engineering (CWE 2010)

The Fifth International Symposium on Computational Wind Engineering (CWE 2010) will be held on May 23-27, 2010 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA. 


The theme for CWE2010 is Computational Wind Engineering (CWE) applications for Homeland and Societal Security. This theme includes natural and human-caused hazards and disasters. A special session is being planned on the integration of multiscale CWE models with endpoints for human health and property effects. Special topic sessions will include Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model development and validation, inclusion of boundary layers and turbulence, use in supporting disaster preparedness for wind damage, fire damage, and environmental contamination, and use in developing wind energy systems and their siting.

CWE2010 will include keynote speakers on the future of high performance computing hardware and software as it may influence the future of CWE. Each international symposium on CWE reflects the significant scientific advances in the rapidly developing computational wind engineering sciences linked to advances in high performance computing hardware and software. The future of computing will change the ability and opportunities for CWE.
