DESCRIPTION:Dr. Orestis Malaspinas\, University of Geneva\nBio: Dr. Oresti
 s Malaspinas is a senior researcher in the fields of Lattice Bolzmann non-
 Newtonian fluids and turbulence modeling. He contributed to the Palabos so
 ftware by developping advanced turbulence and turbulent boundary layer mod
 els.\nOne of the four founding members of the company\, he conducts his re
 search activities at the University of Geneva and Université Pierre et Ma
 rie Curie (Paris) where he maintains and encourages academic contributions
  to the numerical models implemented in Palabos.\nCancelled - the speaker 
 is unwell.\nThe lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has established itself as a
 n alternative computational fluid dynamics solver since its creation in th
 e late 80's. Historically\, this numerical scheme was derived from the FHP
  (Frisch\, Hasslacher and Pommeau) cellular automaton. In 2006\, it was sh
 own that following a rigorous procedure for the discretization of the cont
 inuous Boltzmann equation\, one recovered the empirically derived LBM sche
 me. This important result gave a more solid theoretical basis to the metho
 d and allowed many more rigorous derivations of numerical models.\nIn this
  talk I will present recent theoretical and numerical advances in large Ed
 dy simulation (LES) techniques using the LBM. Then I will also discuss the
  modeling of turbulent boundary layers and their coupling with LES. Finall
 y I will show some other recent applications which will be selected among 
 blood flow modeling and noise source identification.
