International Workshop on Recent Developments in the Adaptive Solution of PDEs, August 17-22, 2014

该奖项将用于支付2014年8月17日至22日在加拿大纽芬兰市圣约翰市纽芬兰纪念大学校园举行的“偏微分方程自适应方法的最新发展”国际研讨会的美国参与者的费用。资金直接用于学生、初级研究人员和来自科学领域代表性不足群体的研究人员参加研讨会。由于计算数学家与工程和科学领域的应用研究人员之间的互动和合作日益增加，该研讨会受到了激励。由于需要强大而高效的数值模拟，本次研讨会力求将目前参与实际问题数值模拟的研究人员与适应性专家聚集在一起。工作坊由三个不同但相互联系的部分组成。第一个是两天的短期课程关于偏微分方程的自适应方法。二是由需要自适应仿真技术的适应性专家和应用研究人员进行的研究水平的会谈。最后是分组互动会议，由短期课程参与者、适应性专家和应用研究人员组成。该研讨会将促进偏微分方程自适应方法研究人员与工程和科学应用研究人员之间的更多互动。此外，研讨会将为研究生、博士后和年轻研究人员提供了解研究前沿、展示自己的工作以及与该领域专家互动的绝佳机会。此外，研讨会将为计算数学家和动力系统、地球科学和医学成像领域的应用研究人员之间的跨学科合作提供强大的动力。最后，研讨会将在激励数学和加强该地区大学应用数学小组方面发挥积极作用。工作坊网址：www.math.mun.ca/anasc/workshop.html

This award provides support to defray expenses of US-based participants of the international workshop "Recent Developments in Adaptive Methods for Partial Differential Equations" to be held on August 17-22 in 2014, on the campus of Memorial University of Newfoundland, in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada. Funds are directed towards students, junior investigators, and researchers from groups under-represented in the sciences to attend the workshop. The workshop is motivated by the increased interaction and collaboration between computational mathematicians and applied researchers in engineering and science. Driven by the need for robust and efficient numerical simulations, this workshop strives to bring together researchers currently involved in numerical simulations for real problems with experts in adaptivity. The workshop consists of three distinct but uniquely connected components. The first is a two day short course on adaptive methods for partial differential equations. The second is research level talks given by experts in adaptivity and applied researchers with a need for adaptive simulation techniques. The last is breakout interactive sessions coupling short course participants, adaptivity experts and applied researchers. The workshop will facilitate greater interaction between researchers in adaptive methods for partial differential equations and applied researchers in engineering and science. Moreover, the workshop will provide great opportunities for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and young researchers to acquaint themselves with research frontiers, present their own work, and interact with experts in the field. Furthermore, the workshop will provide strong motivation for interdisciplinary collaboration between computational mathematicians and applied researchers in dynamical systems, Earth sciences, and medical imaging. Finally, the workshop will play an active role in motivating mathematics and strengthening applied mathematics groups at universities in the region.Workshop web site: www.math.mun.ca/anasc/workshop.html
