B. Bell, Mail Stop L-316, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, CA 94550 J. B. Bell -- Chairman R. Ehrlich -- Vice-chairman W. B. Lindquist -- Vice-chairman J. C. Parker -- Vice-chairman ANNOUNCEMENT A Gordon Research Conference entitled "Modeling of Flow in Permeable Media" will be held at Plymouth State College (S), Plymouth, New Hampshire, August 15-19, 1988. The pur- pose of the meeting is to discuss current issues in the modeling of fluid flow in permeable media. Our goal is to bring together scientists and engineers from various discip- lines who have a common interest in these problems. Invited speakers from the natural sciences, engineering and mathematics will cover the subject from a broad-based per- spective, setting the framework for active discussions among the participants. Specific topics to be discussed include: Stochastic Approaches to Modeling Heterogeneous Porous Media (John Wil- son, Alan Gutjahr, Lynn Gelhar, Chris Milly, Georges Vachaud), Stochastic Numerical Methods (Chris Farmer, Mike King, Dan Rothman), Deterministic Approaches to Modeling Heterogeneous Porous Media (Mike Christie, Clint Dawson, Fred Molz), Modeling of Foam Displacement (Ray Flummerfeld, Frank Kovarik, Clay Radke), Viscous Fingering (Bud Homsy, Y.C. Yortsos, Lynn Orr), Application of Fractal Theory to Porous Media Flow (Tom Hewett, Wolfgang Kinzelbach), Flow in Fractured Media (Les Smith), Mathematical Aspects of Polymer Flooding (Ragnar Winther), Microgeometry of Porous Media (James Berryman) and Parameter Estimation (Ted Watson, David Russo). This conference will be of interest to all researchers concerned with the various aspects of flow phenomena in porous media. In addition to the invited talks, a poster session is planned. Those interested in giving a poster presentation should send an abstract to the chairman at the above address. The format of the conference will be informal, focused on open discussion and exchange of ideas. Sessions will be held in the morning and evening, with the afternoons devoted to informal discussions or recreation. Attendance is lim- ited to about 120 people, and all participants are required to attend the entire conference. The conference fee will be $310.00, which includes meals and lodging. Those desiring to attend the conference may request an application by con- tacting the conference office: Dr. A. Cruickshank, Director Gordon Research Center University of Rhode Island Kingston, RI 02811-0801 Phone: (401) 783-4011 or 783-3372 ------------------------------ End of NA Digest ************************** -------
