IUTAM Symposium on Flow Control and MEMS Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium Held at the Royal Geographical Society, 19-22 September 2006, Hosted by Imperial College, London, England

The Symposium brought together many of the world’s experts in fluid mechanics, microfabrication and control theory to discover the synergy that can lead to real advances and perhaps find ways in which collaborative projects may proceed. The high profile meeting was attended by keynote speakers who are leaders in their fields. A key driver was the improvement in flow efficiency to reduce drag, and thereby emissions arising from transport. About 65 papers were presented.
