MS1 - Numerical and computational methods for wave equations

Chair: Kirstof Cools and Le Van Chien (Ghent University)

Abstract:
The rapidly rising variety of acoustic and electromagnetic applications has demanded the high-precision computing capacity of wave equations in complicated scenarios, for instance, modelling and analyzing systems in the presence of wide bandwidth data, large-scale, multi-scale and multi-physics geometries with complex material properties. This demand has accelerated the critical need for studies of robust, stable and highly efficient computational methods, necessitating more and more efforts from both mathematicians, physicists, computer scientists, and engineers. Within this mini symposium, we aim to bring together international experts in the field of numerical and computational methods for acoustic and electromagnetic wave equations to discuss the latest research and knowledge, explore challenges and new directions, as well as to foster interaction and collaboration between communities. The topics of this mini symposium cover both frequency-domain and time-domain challenges, with a particular focus on finite and boundary element methods.
