3rd Southern California Symposium on Flow Physics - Saturday, April 18 2009 - UC San Diego
We are pleased to announce the 3rd Southern California Symposium on Flow Physics - or "SoCal Fluids III" - which will take place on the campus of UC San Diego on Saturday, April 18, 2009. The 1st symposium was held in 2007 at Caltech (with 85 participants), and in 2008 at UCLA (with 92 participants). During this one-day exchange of ideas in an informal and collaborative atmosphere, we are inviting postdocs and graduate students to give short APS-style presentations on their research. All faculty and undergraduate students are also highly encouraged to attend.
Postdoc Position Available
Postdoc research fellows are needed in computational material science. Experience in molecular level simulation of polymer/metal interfaces or CNT/Si and CNT/Cu interfaces are required. Please send detailed academic CV to Jianmin Qu at jq [at] gatech.edu (jq[at]gatech[dot]edu)

The History of Another Dimension - 50 Years of Bentley's V8 Engine
Dr Ulrich Eichhorn's lecture covers the original design and development of the Bentley V8 engine, from its introduction in 1959, in their S2 model, through to its present day form in the newly launched Bentley Brooklands coupe.
With contributions from several senior figures involved with the engine's creation and evolution over the last 50 years, the talk will describe how a well thought out concept and its careful execution have carried the design through to 2009, while other contemporaries have long since fallen by the wayside.

Dear researchers.
I am trying to start studying HIFU (high intensity focused ultrasound) absorption mechanisms and modeling methods, specially for clinical applications(absorption in tissue). But I cant find any straightforward article in this field.Would you please help me on this.
With great Thanks.
