International Conference on Hyperbolic Problems: Theory, Numerics & Applications

该奖项支持参加将于2008年6月在马里兰大学帕克分校举行的关于双曲问题的国际会议：理论、数值和应用。这次会议是两年一次的系列会议中的第十二次，聚集了对双曲时间相关问题的理论、计算和应用方面感兴趣的研究人员、学生和实践者。会议的主题包括多维非线性波型的研究，粒子动力学模型从微观到宏观的过渡，界面的理论和模拟，以及输运理论在复杂环境中的应用，包括随机介质中的散射、生物应用和交通流。组织者鼓励初级研究人员和在数学科学中代表性较低的群体成员参与。这次会议为初级和高级与会者提供了一个很好的机会，让他们交流思想，了解与非线性双曲发展方程有关的新兴理论、应用和数值模拟领域的最新研究成果。会议记录将公布。会议网址：http://hyp2008.umd.edu

This award supports participation in the International Conference on Hyperbolic Problems: Theory, Numerics & Applications, to be held at the University of Maryland, College Park, in June 2008. The conference, the twelfth meeting in a bi-annual series, brings together researchers, students, and practitioners with interest in the theoretical, computational, and applied aspects of hyperbolic time-dependent problems. Topics of the conference include the study of nonlinear wave patterns in multiple dimensions, passage from microscopic to macroscopic in models for particle dynamics, theory and simulation of interfaces, and application of transport theory in complex environments including scattering in random media, biological applications, and traffic flow. The organizers encourage participation by junior researchers and members of groups underrepresented in the mathematical sciences. The meeting provides an excellent opportunity for junior and senior participants to exchange ideas and to learn about recent research in emerging areas of theory, application, and numerical simulation connected with nonlinear hyperbolic evolution equations. Conference proceedings will be published.Conference web site: http://hyp2008.umd.edu
