This meeting is an intra-network event of Multiscale, an EPSRC Network . The main
purpose of the meeting is to foster communication on current research among the
network's members, with a special focus on analytical, practical and computational
aspects of research in Multiscale Modelling. It is also an opportunity for
post-graduates and young researchers to advertise their scientific activity,
as well as for all members to communicate informally about their research.
The basic format of this meeting is that of a mini summer school. The topics will be:
-
Introducing Alberta Alberta is an adaptive finite element C library,
co-authored by Alfred Schmidt and Kunibert Siebert, that has been widely
used in the academic finite element community for adaptive methods.
These training sessions will be aimed at a nuts and bolts introduction to
this library to programmers (would-be or accomplished alike). Sessions will
be held in the computer lab and trainees will be building their code from
scratch under giudance. The goal will be to produce at the end of day 3 a
running code of Albert which the participants can then use as a base for
further programming. Trainers will include Omar Lakkis, Robert Nürnberg and
Vanessa Styles. Other Alberta-experienced participants are encouraged to give
their own contribution.
-
Kinetic Monte Carlo and Stochastic Computations
A short course of 3 hours on the exciting field of Kinetic Monte Carlo
simulations, held by Mike Allen.
-
Computations of Geometric PDE Motions
An overview of the state of the art in numerical analysis and computations
of nonlinear PDEs describing geometric motions, held by Charlie Elliott.
There will be a lot of time provided for informal group discussions, during
the "Network discussion" sessions. Participants are encouraged to volunteer
for short talks regarding their current research during these sessions.
The meeting is held at the University of Sussex, starting on Wednesday
13 (with a lunch offered the Maths Department) and ending on Friday 15
July 2005.
The organisers are Charlie Elliott and Omar Lakkis, from the University
of Sussex. Staff, student and faculty support is kindly provided by Tom
Armour (technical support), Fiona Childs (clerical support), Alex Tomasi
(this website), Marc Williams (clerical support).
