MS1 - Asymptotic Analysis: Homogenization and Thin Structures

Organizers: Maria Eugenia Pérez–Martínez and Delfina Gomez (Universidad de Cantabria, Santander, Spain)

The aim of this mini-symposium is to bring together scientists specializing in asymptotic analysis from different countries to present their recent work and to exchange ideas and tools related to this framework and its applications.

 Being the sixth mini-symposium in the IMSE Conference series, it addresses homogenization processes and thin  structures treatment within different frameworks, ranging from the abstract approaches to recent applications  in composite media or complex structures; let us mention porous media, rough boundaries, oscillating interfaces, fluid-structure interaction, graphs, and multistructures, among others. It also includes further  asymptotic methods related to high contrast and multiscale phenomena.

MS2 - Advanced numerical methods for integral equations

Organizers: Alessandra Aimi (University of Parma, Italy), Concetta Laurita (University of Basilicata, Italy), and Chiara Guardasoni (University of Parma, Italy)

Even if several approximation techniques have been introduced in the literature to numerically solve integral equations, the research in this field is still going on, both from theoretical and applicative point of view.

The mini-symposium aims at presenting new results on the topic, with emphasis on theoretical developments, computational efficiency and real-world applications, ranging from physics to engineering, from finance to medicine, just to cite a few. Additionally, it seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and inspire new research directions in the area.

MS3 - Mathematical models for fluids and structures

Organizers: Alessio Falocchi and Danica Basaric (Politecnico di Milano, Italy)

This mini-symposium focuses on problems in the analysis of partial differential equations (PDEs) related to mathematical models for fluids and structures. We expect contributions from researchers on incompressible or compressible Navier-Stokes equations and on the theory of elasticity (e.g., plates, beams). 

The session is also open to talks on applications in coupled fluid-structure systems, Stokes, Euler equations, PDEs models for engineering structures; analytical problems about wellposedness, regularity, asymptotic behavior are welcome. Additionally, techniques and results dealing with relevant nonlinear modeling for fluids and structures, approximation methods, or computation of numerical solutions and stability are also among the purposes of the session.
