Abstract
The 13th international Symposium on Flow Visualization (ISFV 13) was held in Nice, Acropolis Convention Center, France, July 1-4, 2008. In order to avoid duplication, the 12th French Congress on Visualization in Fluid Mechanics (Fluvisu 12) took place simultaneously. The symposium attracted 298 participants from 27 countries and was organized in 40 ORAL sessions, four invited lectures and a poster exhibition. The Asanuma and Leonardo da Vinci Awards were attributed to scientists for their outstanding contributions to the field of flow visualization. A technical exhibition was organized in order to present recent optical systems and components. A video / photo contest allowed to reward the most aesthetic pictures presented during the symposium.
