Cantera
With Cantera’s object technology, you assemble your architectural masterpiece (i.e application program) from a set of very special bricks you pick up at the Cantera quarry! Each “brick” (or object) represents some well-defined small component of the global structure.
Some of the types (or classes) of objects Cantera provides represent
- phases of matter
- interfaces between these phases
- reaction managers
- time-dependent or steady reactor networks
- IC engine models
- CSTR reactor network
- One-dimensional flows
- Burner-stabilized flat flames
- Air plasma formed behind the bow shock on a re-entry vehicle during re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere
- Adiabatic propagating flat flames
Congresso SAE Brasil 2009
O 18o. Congresso e Exposição Internacionais de Tecnologia da Mobilidade SAE BRASIL 2009 será realizado de 06 a 08 de Outubro de 2009 no Expo-Center Norte, em São Paulo.
Desde 1992, o Congresso e Exposição Internacionais de Tecnologia da Mobilidade SAE BRASIL é o maior evento de tecnologia da mobilidade do hemisfério sul.
Em sua 18o. Edição, o Congresso e Exposição SAE BRASIL reunirá, mais uma vez, empresas, profissionais e acadêmicos do setor da mobilidade e, durante três dias, será palco de grande visibilidade para as organizações exibirem suas inovações tecnológicas, alavancarem negócios e proporcionarem ampliação da sua rede de contatos.

Reports on large-eddy simulation
Research involves modeling the large eddies (such as storm fronts, hurricanes and tornadoes in the atmosphere) in turbulent flow, predicting their motion in computational experiments and validating mathematically the large eddy models and algorithms developed. Current approaches to LES seem to be presently confronting some barriers to resolution, accuracy and predictability. It seems likely that many of these barriers can be traced to the mathematical foundation of the models used, the boundary conditions imposed and the algorithms employed for the simulations. The research undertaken is to develop these mathematical foundations as a guide for practical computation. This research promises to make it possible to extend the range of accuracy and reliability of predictions important to applications, such as those described above, where technological progress requires confronting turbulence!

ScientificCommons.org
http://en.scientificcommons.org/
ScientificCommons.org aims to provide the most comprehensive and freely available access to scientific knowledge on the internet.
The major aim of the project is to develop the world’s largest communication medium for scientific knowledge products which is freely accessible to the public. A key challenge of the project is to support the rapidly growing number of movements and archives who admit the free distribution and access to scientific knowledge. These are the valuable sources for the ScientificCommons.org project. The ScientificCommons.org project makes it possible to access the largely distributed sources with their vast amount of scientific publications via just one common interface. ScientificCommons.org identifies authors from all archives and makes their social and professional relationships transparent and visible to anyone across disciplinary, institutional and technological boundaries. Currently ScientificCommons.org has indexed about 13 million scientific publications and successfully extracted 6 million authors’ names out of this data (January 2007).
