The 13th International Workshop on the Physics of Compressible Turbulent Mixing was held 16-20 July 2012 at the Sculpture Gallery, Woburn Abbey, Bedfordshire, United Kingdom.
This was one of a series of workshops focussing on fundamental aspects of turbulent mixing in flows subject to destabilising acceleration in both compressible and incompressible fluids.
Specific topics include (but are not limited to):
- Rayleigh-Taylor instability
- Richtmyer-Meshkov instability
- Mixing layers
- Experimental, numerical and theoretical studies
- Numerical and experimental techniques
- Direct numerical simulation, large-eddy simulation and engineering turbulence models
- Applications
The workshop included both oral and poster presentations, along with general and round table discussion sessions. The presentations will be published on the IWPCTM web site soon. Furthermore, the papers will be published, subject to peer-review, in a special issue of the Journal of Fluids Engineering.
Author guidelines for the proceedings are now available.
