APPLICATIONS of NUMERICAL MATHEMATICS IN SCIENCE

Chairman : Mario Arioli , RAL/CLRC, Oxfordshire, UK

Mission

The Working Group is intended to be a forum within ERCIM Institutional Organizations in which a cross fertilization between numerical techniques used in different fields of scientific computing might take place. Thus, the Working Group intends to focus on this underpinning theme of computational and numerical mathematics. In this way, the intention is that any resulting numerical algorithm will achieve wider applicability, greater robustness, and better accuracy.
The Working Group looks forward to broadening the scope of its main research topics
  • Numerical Linear Algebra.
  • Numerical Solution of Differential Equations.
  • Continuous Optimization and Optimal Control.
  • Large Scale Scientific Computing.
into additional numerical areas.
Several areas of applications are likely to benefit from the results and activities of the Working Group. For example, the simulation of electromagnetic phenomena, electrical circuit theory, errors-in-variable modelling and mathematical statistics, computational chemistry, computational biology, computational materials, CFD and structural engineering, mathematics for financial derivatives, finite-element modelling for medical simulation, and environmental modelling and image processing.
Finally, the Working Group will promote, through its members, all possible initiatives within the European Programmes for Research. We will encourage grant applications and involvement in the research, technological development and demonstration (RTD) framework programmes of the EU.
