Engineering managers and engineers of every discipline are facing tough challenges today: manufacturing obstacles from design to delivery, broken processes, pressure to reduce costs, increased risk, productivity losses, demand to innovate - the list goes on and on. Many engineers are unaware that by studying the flow of gas, solids, and liquids, you can get to the root cause of problems in your operation. This seminar is designed to give you detailed insight into how the newest technology in fluids engineering can be used to raise your company to the next level - bring a new innovation to life, solve a problem in the system that seems hopeless, or dramatically reduce the risk involved with a product or process design.

What you can expect:

• Presentations given by users of AVL software
• A forum where people interested in the simulation of fluid flow, structural dynamics and vehicle simulation from around the world can meet, exchange ideas and present their activities
• The latest update on AVL´s software packages
• Topics which cover a wide range from modeling aspects to successful application examples
• The entire AST development team at your disposal throughout the meeting

Papers are welcome on all aspects of heat transfer and related mass transfer, including applications such as bio-systems, gas turbines and i.c. engines, materials processing, micro-systems, power and process engineering.

Following on from the success of the 2003 UKHT conference in Oxford, we hope the conference will be an informal and lively occasion and particularly wish to encourage attendance by graduate students and others at early stages in their careers in heat transfer.

AMD has introduced a broad portfolio of dual-core solutions from server and workstations for enterprise users to desktop and desktop-replacement notebooks for consumers and business users. At the second-anniversary celebration of the award-winning AMD Opteron™ processor, the company announced immediate availability of the Dual-Core AMD Opteron 800 Series processor for four- to eight-way servers. The 200 Series processors for two-way servers and workstations will be available in late May. The new processors deliver up to a 90 percent performance improvement for application servers over single-core AMD Opteron processors. For desktop PC users, AMD announced the new AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core processor brand that will enable true multi-tasking capabilities for richer computing experiences.

The EACC is Europe's biggest CFD event dedicated to automotive applications, showcasing the very latest state-of-the-art simulation technologies and innovations in Fluid Flow Modeling and its related disciplines. It is also an ideal opportunity to network with Presidents, Vice Presidents, Directors, Managers, Engineers, Consultants and Partners from market leading companies.
