2013 Symposium Video
2013 Symposium on Frontiers in Fluid Dynamics - A Legacy
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I would like to welcome each of you to this magnificent event in honor of our friend and colleague Fazle Hussain. He is an individual that expects and demands nothing less than excellence in every aspect of his life, a quality that stands out about him. His passion for coherent structures and fluid dynamics is clear to everyone around him and is reflected in his landmark contributions in various fields. 

During this three-day event, we will enjoy scientific presentations, as well as posters, in areas related to fluid dynamics, energy and medicine. Furthermore, we will share the life and contributions of the scientist, the rebel, the mentor, the friend and the yoga instructor. 

Fazle’s legacy will be articulated in a talk given by Professor Ron Adrian and also during various occasions, including evening events where colleagues and long time friends such as Professors Stephen Davis, Katepalli Sreenivasan, Parviz Moin, John Kim, Lex Smits, Bill Saric, Bill George, Mohamed Gad-el-Hak, Mark Glauser, Jim Wallace, Ron Panton, Hui Meng, and others will share his stories and great achievements. In addition, the mystical aspect of the “Faz”, as he is known in the Yoga Community, will be shared with us by his yoga students and colleagues. Last but not least, we will also enjoy humorous stories by his lovely wife, Mrs. Rehana Hussain, on Saturday evening.

We hope you enjoy the celebration and this beautiful island. Please do not forget to share pictures of these moments, as we plan to upload them on the event website. 

Sincerely,

Luciano Castillo, PhD
