CIMPA-UNESCO-SOUTH AFRICA School

Multiple scales problems in Biomathematics, Mechanics, Physics and Numerics

Objectives :
The school will consist of two parts.

General Lectures on multiple scales problems mainly homogenization techniques and applications
Symposium for more specialized topics.

Participants will be introduced to theoretical concepts through lectures delivered by invited experts. The colloquium will be around some specific research problems and will enable the participants to get in touch with those current problems.

Scientific directors:
Doina Cioranescu (University Paris 6, France), Alain Damlamian (University Paris 12, France), Jacek Banasiak (University of Kwazulu Natal, SA), Daya Reddy (University of Cape Town, SA), Mamadou Sango (University of Pretoria, SA), Temba Shonhiwa (University of the Witwatersrand, SA)

Working languages:
English

Date and location :
August 6-18, 2007, AIMS, Cape Town (South Africa)
