HemeLB: cardiovascular modelling and simulation in UKCOMES

UKCOMES, CompBioMed, and VECMA are hosting a meeting on “HemeLB: cardiovascular modelling and simulation in UKCOMES” centred around lattice Boltzmann simulations for blood flow. As part of the meeting, researchers at UCL will introduce and demonstrate the use of their HemeLB application and the progress they have made towards simulating the whole arterial tree. There will be talks from other users of HemeLB in addition to alternative LB applications including Palabos and DL_MESO.

The meeting takes place on 29-30 May 2019 at UCL in London:

Engineering Front Building Executive Suite 103, Engineering Front Building, Torrington Place, London, WC1E 7JE, United Kingdom

Organising Committee:
Peter Coveney, UCL
Derek Groen, Brunel
Miguel Bernabeu, Edinburgh
Emily Lumley, UCL

Speakers include:
Robin Richardson, UCL
Alex Patronis, UCL
Jon McCullough, UCL
Jianping Meng , STFC
Ulf Schiller, Clemson
Timm Krueger, Edinburgh
Rupert Nash, Edinburgh
With more to be announced shortly.

The UK Consortium on Mesoscale Engineering Sciences (UKCOMES) is an EPSRC grant addresses mesoscopic simulation. Such simulations require a multidisciplinary approach that needs to span a wide range of both spatial and temporal scales and necessitates close interaction between researchers in the physical and chemical sciences, mathematics, biology, engineering and computational science. UKCOMES brings together all the required expertise to make critical theoretical discoveries and translate these new concepts into software that is able to exploit today’s and future high-end computing hardware developments, focusing primarily on the further development of the lattice Boltzmann method.

This event is supported by EU H2020 funded projects CompBioMed (grant agreement No 675451) and VECMA (grant agreement No 800925)
