COLLOQUIUM 600
New challenges in finite element technology from the perspective of mechanics and mathematics

12 March — 14 March 2019, Aachen, Germany

One main idea of the colloquium is to generate a beneficial exchange between current knowledge in mechanics and mathematics. The organizers understand this as a crucial prerequisite to reach the far goal of the field: a robust and stable non-linear finite element technology which can be suitably adapted to the special needs of the non-linear modeling of interest.

It is planned to have for each topic area about the same number of speakers from mathematics and mechanics. There are 30 minutes scheduled for each presentation. Alternatively, each speaker is given the opportunity to choose an interactive format for his/her talk. Additionally, a “round table” discussion is planned after each topic area.

Each contribution should contain at least one of the previously mentioned sources of non-linearity. See "About" for more information.

Abstract submission deadline: January 31, 2019

Registration deadline: February 28, 2019
