The purpose of the symposium is to provide an opportunity for engineers and scientists to meet in technical sessions and present recent developments in the general area of bio-inspired fluid mechanics and engineering. Papers enhancing our understanding of bio-fluid issues are sought in areas that include, but are not limited to:
- Bio-fluidics (micro/macro)
- Delivery systems
- Genetics applications
- Space applications
Papers presenting analytical, experimental and/or numerical results are encouraged. Papers should emphasize possible solutions to the difficulties associated with acquiring, analyzing, and interpreting experimental and/or computational results. Experimental and computational studies employing unique diagnostic and computational methods to extract new information are also encouraged.
