MASDOC Applied Mathematics Summer School
2-6 July 2012
Organisers: Charlie Elliott, Andreas Dedner (Warwick)
This summer school is in two parts which may be attended separately:
Part 1: Applied and Numerical Analysis of PDEs and SDEs
Part 2: Warwick/NAIS Dune School
The school is held at the Mathematics Institute at the University of Warwick
Supported by EPSRC, NAIS and SIAM.
REGISTRATION:
Please register in advance since there is only a limited number of spaces available.
The Maths Research Center (MRC) can help with booking accommodation after registration.
Financial Support:
There is no financial support available anymore.

Part 2: Warwick/NAIS Dune School
Wednesday - Friday 4 - 6 July 2012
This is the second Warwick/NAIS Dune School. The first school was held in June 2011.
This part of the school provides an introduction to the Dune software framework. Dune is a free open source library providing interfaces for the implementation of numerical schemes for solving partial differential equations. There is a wide variety of grid based methods implemented within the Dune framework, covering finite-element, discontinuous Galerkin, and finite volume schemes. The methods can be used on different grid structures and dimensions, from structured to locally adapted grids to and from 1d to 3d including grids on manifolds.
The course will provide the participants with hands on experience in using Dune through practical sessions and provide some background on the methodology used through lectures. The practicals will cover finite-element for elliptic problems to discontinuous Galerkin methods for non-linear evolution equations. Parallelization and grid adaptivity will also be covered.
Lecturers
