Kompaktseminar Numerik 2015

PfalzAkademie Lambrecht

September 7-9, 2015

Focus of the workshop:
This year's workshop will focus on those mathematical tools and numerical algorithms which are relevant for the interdisciplinary projects within the SFB/Transregio 146. In particular, the topics will be (albeit not limited to) the following:

  • Inverse problems and regularization techniques
  • Numerical discretization of PDEs, in particular hybrid schemes
  • Multiscale modeling
  • Model reduction techniques
  • Uncertainty quantification

Scientific program:
There will be survey talks (30-45 minutes each), given by PIs or postdocs, and shorter talks (20 minutes each) on the first results from the respective TRR projects, given by Ph.D. students. Some master students will also present the findings of their TRR-related theses. There will be enough time for discussions. All speakers are kindly requested to endow their talks with sufficient introductory material.
The workshop will start in the morning on Monday and end in the afternoon on Wednesday. The program can be found here.
