Abstract: The 11th International Symposium on Flow Visualization (ISFV) was held at Notre Dame, IN, USA, August 8–12, 2004. The Symposium attracted 236 participants from around the world. The 52 Technical Sessions and two Poster Sessions covered a wide range of topics as indicated in the Keywords. Of the 182 submitted papers, 162 were presented. The presented papers included 8 invited lectures. Each morning and afternoon began with an invited lecture by an outstanding, recognized leader in the field. Toshio Kobayashi received the Leonardo da Vinci Award, an engraved plate, and presented the Leonardo da Vinci Memorial Lecture on "High-performance Computing and Visualization of Unsteady Turbulent Flows." Toshio Kobayashi is very well known for his outstanding contributions in computational science and flow visualization as well as his leadership in organizing conferences, workshops, and symposia on flow visualization. Ronald J. Adrian discussed "Visualization in Extreme Environments," Rolf H. Engler described "Pressure-sensitive Paints and Temperature-sensitive Paints in Quantitative Wind Tunnel Studies," William K. Blake explained "Cavitation as Flow Visualization Seeding," Giovanni M. Carlomagno discussed "The Use of Colors in Thermo-fluid Dynamic Studies," Ajit Yoganathan presented "A Gallery of Cardiovascular Fluid Flow Fields: From Heart Valves to Congenital Heart Disease," Richard B. Miles described "Flow Visualization by Filtered Molecular and Particular Scattering," and Thomas C. Gruber Jr., displayed a technique for "Visualization of Foreign Gases in Atmospheric Air." At the end of the last day, Jurgen Kompenhaus from DLR discussed the 12th ISFV to be held in Germany in 2006. After this presentation there was a tour of the Hessert Laboratory for Aerospace Research.
