November 20, 2017 - Department of Mathematics, Aberystwyth University: Sêr Cymru COFUND Workshop on Pure and Applied Mathematics


On November 20, 2017 the "Sêr Cymru COFUND Workshop on Pure and Applied Mathematics" was held at the Department of Mathematics of Aberystwyth University. The conference attracted about 20 participants from Aberystwyth University, the University of Padova, the INRIA and the Université Pierre et Marie Curie of Paris and 6 talks were delivered. The meeting was a useful occasion to present and discuss recent developments in several areas of pure and applied mathematics and to establish and reinforce collaborations among the participants. The talks covered a very wide range of topics: composite materials, potential theory, heat conduction, self-adjointness of sub-elliptic Laplacians, foams, heat equation, encapsulated biphasic contact, etc...


The organizers, Mr. G. Da Fies, Prof. G. Mishuris, and Dr. P. Musolino, are extremely satisfied for the success of the workshop. In addition to the high quality of the talks, the conference stimulated fruitful discussions among the participants; this represented a first fundamental step for the development of innovative and collaborative researches.

July 10, 2017 - Department of Mathematics, Aberystwyth University: Sêr Cymru COFUND Workshop on the Mathematical Modelling of Structures, Solids and Fluids


On July 10, 2017 the first "Sêr Cymru COFUND Workshop on the Mathematical Modelling of Structures, Solids and Fluids" was held at the Department of Mathematics of Aberystwyth University. The conference attracted about 20 participants from the Universities of Cardiff and of Aberystwyth and 11 talks were delivered. The meeting was a useful occasion to present and discuss recent developments in several areas of applied mathematics and to establish and reinforce collaborations among the participants. The talks covered a very wide range of topics: wave propagation on quasi-periodic structures, mathematical modeling of biological tissues, simulations of foams, composite materials, heat conduction, crack propagation, solid-fluid interaction, hydraulic fracturing, etc...


Several talks contained elements of interest for the National Research Network for Low Carbon Energy and Environment (NRN-LCEE). For example, L. Morini discussed propagation phenomena in quasiperiodic and quasicrystalline structures. P. Musolino presented a new method for the computation of the effective conductivity of a periodic two-phase composite. In the talks by N. Gorbushin, A. Vellender, and G. Vitucci mathematical models describing different scenarios in materials with cracks were presented. G. Da Fies illustrated an effective numerical model for fractures as a result of solid and fluid interaction. D. Andreeva described the process of heat transfer in a composite with a thin layer.


The organizers, Prof. G. Mishuris and P. Musolino, are extremely satisfied for the success of the workshop. In addition to the high quality of the talks, the conference stimulated fruitful discussions among the participants; this represented a first fundamental step for the development of innovative and collaborative researches.
