Field Trips and Tours • A half-day tour of the USDA Laboratory in Oxford, Mississippi.
Sedimentation
one-day tour of the Waterways Experimental Station of US Army Corps of Engineers in Vicksburg, Mississippi (one of the world's largest hydraulic test facilities).
• A
Objectives This program is intended as a forum for the review of the state-of-the-art, the presentation of new research results, and exchange of ideas in the field of Finite Elements in Water Resources. It is a continuation of the successful First and Second International Conferences held at Princeton University (1976) and Imperial College, London (1978).
• After the conference, participants may wish to tour the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama (the largest space exhibition on Earth), or areas of general interest, i.e. Mississippi Gulf Coast, New Orleans, or Florida.
Program The conference will focus on the following topics: • River and channel flow modelling • Ocean dynamics • Estuary and lake modelling • Aquifer • Multiphase flows • Well hydraulics • Ground water flows • Transport phenomena • Seepage • Water pollution modelling • Basic finite element method • FE solutions to Navier-Stokes equations, etc. Each session will be introduced by one or more invited speakers who will present keynote addresses in that area and followed by presentations ofcontributed papers and a general discussion.
