Committee Members of D&T

The tutorial collection is managed and supported by ESI-OpenCFD and members of the OpenFOAM community. For this reason a Committee for Documentation and Tutorial was initiated by the Steering Committee.

Chairs of the Editorial Board (alphabetically):

  • Andrew Heather - ESI-OpenCFD
  • József Nagy - eulerian-solutions e.U., Linz, Austria

Members of the Committee (alphabetically):

  • Matej Forman - ESI-OpenCFD
  • Joel Guerrero - Universita degli Studi di Genova/Wolf Dynamics, Italy
  • Victoria Korchagova - ISPRAS, Russia, Moscow
  • Miguel Nóbrega - University of Minho, Portugal
  • Stefan Radl - Technische Universität Graz, Austria

Our goals

Content on the Tutorial Wiki is open to all for read access. The reason for that is, that we would like to avoid a collection of outdated materials and dead links. The responsibility of the Members of the Editorial Board is

  • to maintain the tutorial collection
  • to guarantee the high quality of the tutorials
  • to remind contributors about dead links and outdated material
  • to review new submissions

Future goals include filling missing parts of the documentation, creating tutorials for complex models in OpenFOAM and keep an up-to-date tutorial collection.

Committee Workflow

The Committee is divided into focus groups

  • Documentation - Members are working on creating documentation for existing models of OpenFOAM
  • Tutorials - Members are working on creating new tutorials for the official releae of OpenFOAM
  • Update of tutorials - Members are organizing the yearly update of tutorials in the collection.

The committee meets four times a year to discuss structural and topical changes of this collection.
