Minisymposia Details
| ADVANCES IN POLYTOPIC METHODS Organized by Michele Botti and Lorenzo Mascotto | ||
|---|---|---|
| Galerkin methods based on polytopal meshes are an established technology in the framework of PDEs discretisation as they allow for: a natural design of structure preserving schemes; more efficient mesh refinements/coarsenings (due to the automatic use of hanging nodes); the computation of solutions, which are robust with respect to mesh distortions; geometries featuring highly heterogeneous micro-structures and inner interfaces. In this mini-symposium, we gather researchers working with diff erent polytopal methods (discontinuous Galerkin, hybrid high-order, virtual elements, hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin, ...). | ||

| EFFECTIVE SOLVERS FOR INNOVATIVE DISCRETIZATIONS OF MULTIPHYSICS PHENOMENA Organized by Nicolás Barnafi and Simone Scacchi | ||
|---|---|---|
| The numerical approximation of systems of PDEs is highly challenging because of the multiscale properties of the physical phenomena involved. In recent years, several researchers have been working on the development of innovative numerical technologies for the spatial discretization of PDEs, such as isogeometric analysis and polytopal element methods. At the end of the discretization process, all these methods yield the solution of large scale and ill conditioned systems, which require the development of effective solvers. The aim of this minisymposium is to bring together researchers working on the construction, analysis and implementation of robust parallel and multilevel solvers for the solution of the linear systems arising from innovative discretizations of PDEs. | ||
| Authors (speaker underlined) | Title | Abstract |
| FROM BEM TO DPG: A MINISYMPOSIUM DEDICATED TO THE 60TH BIRTHDAY OF PROF. NORBERT HEUER Organized by Thomas Führer and Michael Karkulik | ||
|---|---|---|
| The aim of this minisymposium is to bring together (former) students/collaborators and colleagues of Prof. Norbert Heuer in order to discuss recent developments in areas related to his research. During his PhD Prof. Heuer started to work on boundary element methods (BEM). In the last decade he has become one of the leading experts on the discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin method with optimal test functions (DPG) whilst also having many important contributions to other areas like mixed methods, problems involving fractional order Sobolev spaces and numerical methods for fourth-order PDEs. | ||

| MATHEMATICAL MODELLING IN BIOMEDICINE WITH CARDIAC APPLICATIONS Organized by Matthias Gsell, Elias Karabelas and Argyrios Petras | ||
|---|---|---|
| In recent years, PDE based computer models have become a very accurate and powerful tool for simulating cardiovascular function. Personalization of these models leads to the development of digital twins that can contribute in therapy planning, and the improvement of interventional outcomes. Due to the complex multiphysics and multiscale nature of cardiovascular function, coupled mathematical models from cellular to tissue and organ levels have emerged. Efficient and reliable methods to solve the underlying PDEs, and pipelines to personalize the models in a reasonable timeframe are needed to pave the way towards clinical application. | ||

|---|---|---|
| Authors (speaker underlined) | Title | Abstract |
| NONLINEAR HYPERBOLIC PDES: NUMERICAL TECHNIQUES AND RELATED MODELS Organized by Elisabetta Carlini, Adriano Festa and Luis-Miguel Villada | ||
|---|---|---|
| The modelling of transportation phenomena makes a large use of fully nonlinear PDEs, typically hyperbolic or hyperbolic dominant. The little degree of regularity of such equations, as in the case of Conservation Laws (CL), Hamilton-Jacobi equations (HJ), etc. requires to weakening the concept of solutions with, consequently, a special care in the numerical treatment. Starting from the nowadays classical concepts of entropy or viscosity solutions, the field has experienced a consistent expansion in the last decade. The goal of this minisymposium is to gather various international experts of the field to present new developments. | ||
| Authors (speaker underlined) | Title | Abstract |

|---|---|---|
| The development of numerical methods for approximating eigenvalues and eigenfunctions associated with PDEs is a significant topic in numerical analysis, with crucial applications across various fields, including the design and construction of bridges, buildings, noise reduction devices, and the stability of coupled problems. In this context, numerical techniques such as FEM, DG, VEM, Least squares, among others, are continuously advancing to accurately solve spectral problems while minimizing computational costs. The goal is to communicate and discuss recent developments in numerical methods for solving eigenvalue problems related to PDEs arising in continuum mechanics and other fields. | ||

| NUMERICAL METHODS FOR MINERAL PROCESSING, WASTEWATER TREATMENT, AND RELATED APPLICATIONS Organized by Fernando Betancourt and Raimund Bürger | ||
|---|---|---|
| The minisymposium is focused on models of unit operations arising in mineral processing, wastewater treatment, and similar areas that are described by nonlinear, time-dependent PDEs of convection-diffusion-reaction and related types. Typical applications of this type include column flotation,clarifier-thickeners, sequencing batch reactors, and granular media. These models are motivated by specific real-world applications but pose a number of mathematical challenges for efficient numerical simulation, control, and optimization. These include discontinuous solutions, discontinuous fluxes, degenerate diffusion terms, reaction terms, moving boundaries, and partly nonlocal and delay terms. Recent advances in these areas will be discussed. | ||

|---|---|---|
| Recent innovations in numerical analysis for integral equations and parallel computing have empowered Boundary Element Methods (BEM) to meticulously address intricate geometries across various applications, encompassing areas like molecule solvation and wave propagation. In this mini-symposium, our objective is to present the current state-of-the-art in BEM for complex domains. We endeavor to showcase recent advancements in scenarios involving unbounded domains characterized by potentially distinct media or complex shapes, including organic molecules, scatterers with triple junction points, and multiple cracks. | ||
| Authors (speaker underlined) | Title | Abstract |
| STRUCTURE PRESERVING METHODS FOR NONLINEAR CONSERVATION EQUATIONS Organized by Jean-Luc Guermond | ||
|---|---|---|
| The objective of the minisymposium is to take a snapshot of the current state of the art on structure preserving techniques for nonlinear conservation equations. Structure preserving techniques bring robustness to numerical methods by (i) Preserving physically relevant convex sets that are invariant by the mathematical model (positivity of density, positivity of an internal energy, etc); (ii) Guaranteeing that involution properties of the the mathematical model are satisfied by the numerical solution (for instance Gauss' law in electromagnetism); (iii) Enforcing compatibility with important asymptotic limits (for instance, the diffusion limit in radiation transport); (iv) Enforcing well-balancing with respect to important steady state solutions. | ||
| Authors (speaker underlined) | Title | Abstract |
| THEORETICAL AND NUMERICAL ADVANCES FOR MIXED-DIMENSIONAL 3D-1D COUPLING Organized by Luca Formaggia, Alessio Fumagalli and Miroslav Kuchta | ||
|---|---|---|
| A large variety of phenomena of practical interest occurs in domains characterized by the simultaneous presence of thin tubular structures embedded in a larger domain. From a computational standpoint, it might be convenient to collapse the thin structures along their centerlines, operating a dimensional reduction of these domains and of the relative equations, and thus avoiding the necessity of resolving, with the mesh, the small cross-section scale. But the resulting 3D-1D coupled problems need to be carefully addressed, to derive well posed mathematical formulations and tailored numerical schemes capable of reproducing the expected behavior of the solution. | ||

Practical Information
Arriving in Chile
International flights arrive at the International Terminal (Terminal 2) of the airport Arturo Merino Benítez (IATA code: SCL) in Santiago: https://www.nuevopudahuel.cl/
Passengers arriving from abroad are requested to pick up their baggage upon arrival at Santiago, pass through the customs and SAG (Agricultural and Livestock Service) inspection and proceed to the National Terminal (Terminal 1) for connecting flights to Concepción. Passengers must check in again their baggage for the connecting flight in the check-in area (located on the third floor of Terminal 1). Under no circumstance can baggage be checked through directly to Concepción from abroad. The airport in Concepción, Carriel Sur (IATA code: CCP), is located 5 kilometers to the Northwest of the city.
From the airport to downtown Concepción
- Shuttles (shared vans for 6 people). Fare: about 8000 CLP (Chilean pesos) per person.
- Taxis to downtown. Fare: about 12000 CLP (Chilean pesos).
Fares must be paid to the agents located at the baggage claim area.
Electricity
In Chile the electrical current used is 220 volts, 50 Hertz.
Weather
January is in the middle of summer with sunny days and warm weather.
Average maximum temperature : 25 ºC
Average minimum temperature : 10 ºC
Time
http://www.horaoficial.cl/index_ing.html
Commerce
Shopping areas in downtown Concepción are open from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm. The most accepted credit cards are Visa and Master Card. Some stores accept also Diners and American Express.
Exchange Rate
Chile's official currency is Peso ($). 1 US$ (dollar) is roughly equivalent to $820 (the exchange rate fluctuates). Foreign currencies can be exchanged at banks or currency exchange bureaus, most of them located in downtown Concepción.
It might be a good idea to get some Chilean pesos (to pay taxi fare) at the Arturo Merino Benítez airport in Santiago since there are not exchange bureaus at the Carriel Sur airport in Concepción.
Banks
There are several banks downtown. On the University campus campus there is a branch of Itaú bank located below the clock tower. Here you can find an ATM.
