Dear all,
We're approaching June and looking forward to seeing you all here at
Simula for FEniCS'09. Some 40 people have registered for the workshop
and 20 have announced they want to give a talk. We're currently
preparing the workshop program which will be presented on the workshop
web page as soon as it's ready:
http://www.fenics.org/wiki/FEniCS_09
For those of you who arrive early, I'm happy to announce that
Prof. Douglas N Arnold (http://www.ima.umn.edu/~arnold/), the current
president of SIAM, will visit Simula on June 10 and give a talk. Be
sure not to miss it if you have a chance to arrive early. Title and
abstract follow.
Stability, Consistency, and Convergence: Modern Variations on a Classical Theme
Consistency and stability of numerical discretizations are the basic
leitmotifs of numerical analysis, and the idea that consistency and
stability imply convergence is a principle theme, particularly in the
numerical solution of partial differential equations. But both
consistency and stability can, in some situations, be more subtle and
elusive than they might appear. Even seemingly simple examples of
numerical discretizations can yield unexpected - and even, in real
life applications, tragic - results. The development of consistent,
stable numerical methods remains elusive for important classes of
problems. We will survey these ideas from their origins in the
precomputer era to the present day, via a variety of examples. We
finish by describing a new approach, the finite element exterior
calculus, which borrows tools from geometry and topology to design and
elucidate stable finite element methods.
Place: Bakrommet @ Simula
Time: 10.00 am

See you all in a couple of weeks!
