This ranges from traditional areas such as civil mechanical, marine, offshore, coastal, naval architectural and environmental engineering to relatively new areas such as bio-fluid mechanics. There is no doubt that Hydromechanics will maintain its strong role in human life as a branch of science in future. The International Conference on Hydrodynamics (ICHD) conference series was initiated in China in 1994 and has been held biennially ever since in Asia. It has become an important event at which academics, researchers and practitioners exchange new ideas and their research findings. The proceedings of the 2004ICHD conference, held in Perth, contains a selection of invited keynote lectures and refereed papers. The papers cover a wide range of topics such as naval architectural and ocean engineering, coastal and offshore engineering, industrial fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, environmental fluid mechanics and hydraulics, water resources, fundamental fluid hydrodynamics and computational fluid mechanics. The proceeding is meant to serve as a source of reference for all those interested in the state-of-the-art in hydrodynamics and fluid mechanics: academics, researchers and engineers in civil, mechanical, naval architectural, ocean, coastal and offshore engineering |
