Understanding fluid turbulence is often depicted as one of the last mystery to be unraveled in classical physics. Several recent advances in this field will be presented during this two-days conference by recognized experts in the field of fluid turbulence. The cross-fertilization between fluid turbulence and other topics such as statistical physcis or biophysics will also be at the heart of this conference: several tools and concepts involved in fluid turbulence modeling have been applied or borrowed from other fields.

A special session will be dedicated to the contributions of

Alain Pumir and Jean-François Pinton, at the occasion of their 60^th birthday.

The conference will be hosted at Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon,

Site Descartes, Amphithéâtre Descartes (1st floor)

15 parvis René Descartes, Lyon

from Friday 6th September 2019 to Saturday 7th September 2019.
