Workshop on "High Speed Body Motion in Water"

Abstract

From 1-3 September 1997, a workshop on "High Speed Body Motion in Water" was held at the Institute of Hydromechanics, Kiev, Ukraine. The workshop was divided in five sessions: hydrobionics, boundary layer flows, supercavitating flows, air-water penetration and control of cavitation. This report gives a summary of the presented lectures. The workshop was intended to improve the contacts between European/American and Ukrainian/Russian scientists and succeeded in this. The presented lectures were theoretical as well as practical and gave more insight in the behavior of high speed body motion in water. However, still not everything is clearly understood and further research is recommended.
