Mat-1.3656 Seminar on numerical analysis and computational science

Spring 2008

Organized by prof. Timo Eirola and prof. Rolf Stenberg

The topics of the seminar are typically new techniques in numerical computations - sometimes also reviews of the classics - together with applications and challenges of numerical methods in various problems in science and engineering. The speakers are mainly visitors, TKK researchers, and PhD students of mathematics, mechanics and computational science.

The seminar will be on Mondays at 14.15, in room U322 of the Math Institute
