This paper is a summary of the Fifth Beer-Sheva Seminar on Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Flows and Turbulence, held in Jerusalem during 2–6 March 1987, with 99 participants from 12 countries. Reviews and research papers were presented on general problems of turbulence, MHD turbulence, fundamental MHD, two-phase flows with and without magnetic fields, and on different applications of liquid-metal MHD, especially in power generation nuclear fission and fusion, and in metallurgy.

This paper is a summary of the Fourth Beer-Sheva Seminar on Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Flows and Turbulence held in Israel during 27 February–2 March 1984 with 67 participants from 13 countries. Reviews and contributed papers were presented on laminar and turbulent single-phase and two-phase MHD flows, turbulent and two-phase flows without magnetic fields, and applications of MHD in power generation, in nuclear fission and fusion and in metallurgy.

This paper is a summary of the first Euromech Colloquium to be held on Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). It was organized in conjunction with the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique and held at Grenoble from 16–19 March 1976 with 60 participants from 10 countries present. Papers were presented on laminar and turbulent MHD duct flows; heat transfer and two-phase flows in MHD; the effects of magnetic fields on instabilities and turbulence; the motion of and forces on solid objects in MHD flows; flow-measurement methods, and applications of MHD in the metallurgical industries, in sodium technology and in liquid-metal power generation. Our main conclusion is that there are many industrial applications of the existing body of research findings in MHD, but that quite new research problems have arisen as a result of the new applications, and that these need investigation. MHD lives!
