This international symposium provides an open communication forum for mathematicians, scientists, and engineers from academia, industry, and government. The symposium organization is quite informal, and the primary purpose is to present and discuss new, current, and work in progress of the participants.

• Communicate current work, new research ideas, and work in progress
• Exchange ideas involving overset grid methodologies
• Develop interactions between interested researchers
• Provide an opportunity for interaction between researchers, developers, and users.

This year we are offering two new classes the day before conference sessions begin. The first class is a 4 hour overset short course intended for new/novice users and will cover the basics of the tools and processes used in overset CFD including grid generation, stencil calculation, and flow solvers. The second is an 8 hour class specifically focusing on OVERFLOW 2. The objective of this class is to provide the CFD practitioner with a working knowledge of the models and methods available in the OVERFLOW 2 overset structured grid Navier-Stokes code. Please refer to the symposium web site for more information.

We ask that you register your intent to participate via the web site to help us plan for the symposium. You can download a pdf file of the symposium announcement brochure from the web site.
