OpenFOAM Workshop Committee

The organization of the Fourth OpenFOAM Workshop follows in the footsteps of the first three successful OpenFOAM Workshops. The OpenFOAM Workshop Committee was formed in September 2008 to discuss the development and the evolution of these events. The committee can be reached by sending an e-mail to: committee(at)openfoamworkshop.org.
