The IACM Computational Fluids Conference (CFC) has a rich history that closely parallels the development and maturation of the finite element method and its application to computational fluid dynamics problems. The FEF meetings began in Swansea (U.K.) in 1972 and are the principal forum for the exchange of research results in all aspects of flow simulation using the finite element method. The scope of the conference is intentionally broad with coverage of theory, implementation, assessment and application in all of the major and emerging areas of fluid dynamics and flow-related phenomena.
