Scientific workshop · INPHYNI
Flows,Interfaces& Elasticity
26–27 November 2026
INPHYNI · Nice, France
Two days exploring the interplay between fluid flows, interfaces and elastic materials.

About the workshop
The workshop aims to bring together researchers from fluid mechanics, physics, and applied mathematics working on the interplay between fluid flows and deformable media, from fundamental questions to applied problems. The scientific program will be organized around three main themes:
- Fluid–Structure Interactions at low Re (elastohydrodynamics, lubrication, compliant boundaries)
- Soft Interfaces (wetting, capillarity, elastocapillarity, interfacial instabilities)
- Complex Fluid Flows (viscoelasticity, active matter, biofluidics)
