If you have a question about this talk, please contact Buck Blake.

In this talk, I will introduce computational fluid dynamics (CFD), an approach for simulating flows of fluids and their interaction with solid surfaces that has great potential in palaeontology. I will present case studies of CFD used to test functional hypotheses in fossil taxa, shedding light on the ecology and evolution of a range of ancient organisms.
