| description abstract | It is with great pleasure that we present the Special Issue of the ASME Journal of Fluids Engineering to celebrate the 90th Anniversary of the ASME Fluids Engineering Division (FED). With support of the FED Executive Committee, plans were conceived to commemorate and preserve the history of the division, including production of this special edition. A steering committee was formed in May 2015 that included Dr. Paul Cooper, Dr. Bahram Khalighi, Dr. YuTai Lee, Dr. C. Samuel Martin, Dr. Efstathios (Stathis) Michaelides, Dr. William B. Morgan, Dr. Timothy J. O'Hern, Dr. George Papadopoulos, Dr. Joel Park, Dr. S. A. Sherif, and ASME staff Nick Ferrari, Norma Johnston, Jimmy Le, Christine Reilley, and Greg Valero. The committee organized activities to be held in conjunction with the summer 2016 annual meeting of the FED. Thus, a complementary effort ensued during the joint ASME meetings of the Summer Heat Transfer Conference (SHTC), the Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting (FEDSM), and the International Conference on Nanochannels and Microchannels (ICNMM) held on July 10–14, 2016 in Washington, DC. The conference provided an ideal opportunity to celebrate and recognize the achievements of our colleagues. Highlights of the conference activities include: | |
