User Meeting, edition 2014

The 2014 edition of the Code_Saturne User Meeting will be held in Chatou (France) on April the 2nd.

This edition was the seventh User Meeting since the code was made open source. Around 110 participants attended the conference. The list of posters and presentations is given below. Most of them can be downloaded by clicking on their reference.
