American-Japanese-European

Two-Phase Flow Group Meeting

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

Cambridge, MA, USA

September 21 to September 24, 2025

Introduction

The 2025 of the American-Japanese-European Two-Phase Flow Group Meeting will be hosted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, MA, USA, from September 21 to September 24. The idea of the group meeting was first initiated by Prof. Iztok Zun (European Research Community) and Prof. Goichi Matsui (Japanese Society of Multiphase Flow) and led to a series of eight joint European-Japanese meetings. Fruitful and exciting exchange of information occurred during the previous editions (Portoroz – June 1998, Tsukuba – September 2000, Certosa di Pontignano – September 2003, Kyoto – September 2006, Spoleto – September 2009, Kumamoto – September 2012, Zermatt – October 2015 and New York – April 2018).

At the European-Japanese Two-Phase Flow Group Meeting held in New York in 2018, Prof. John Thome (EPFL, Switzerland) and Prof. Akio Tomiyama (Kobe University, Japan) suggested holding a joint three-way meeting with the Americas (North and South). As a result, the bilateral meeting (European-Japanese) has become a trilateral meeting, with an extremely successful first edition in Chamonix in October of 2022.

MIT Conference Venue

Prof. Emilio Baglietto (MIT) will serve as the local Host and Organizer for the 2025 trilateral meeting. Guest accommodations in Massachusetts will be provided at The Kendall Hotel, formerly the historic Engine 7 Firehouse, located in Kendall Square, Cambridge, MA USA.
