Upcoming events

Date Event Comment
11th — 12th March 2014 AIME@CZ Czech workshop on applied mathematics in engineering The workshop, organized by Didier Henrion,
Josef Málek, Tomáš Pajdla, Zdeněk Strakoš and Miroslav Tůma aims at reporting recent achievements in applied mathematics in engineering on the Czech scene. It is a follow-up of a series of previous similar workshops that took place in Prague in
2010, 2011 and 2012.
24th — 28th March DUNE/PDELab Course IRW (Interdisziplinäres Zentrum für Wissenschaftliches Rechnen) Heidelberg is organizing a one week course on DUNE (The Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment). DUNE is a software framework for the numerical solution of partial differential equations with grid-based methods. If you are interested, please register http://conan.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de/dune-workshop/.
1st — 3rd May 2014 Regularity theory for elliptic and parabolic systems and problems in continuum mechanics Since 2010 Nadační fond na podporu vědy NEURON (NEURON Endowment Fund to Support Science) provides grants for scientists working in the Czech Republic. In 2012 NEURON junior research grant was awarded to Miroslav Bulíček for research concerning regularity of solutions to partial differential equations. The meeting Regularity theory for elliptic and parabolic systems and problems in continuum mechanics is organized as a part of this junior research project. The aim of the meeting is to bring together researchers working in the field of regularity of partial differential equations with a particular emphasis on partial differential equations stemming from continuum mechanics.
2nd — 6th June 2014 Modelling 2014 Modelling 2014 aims to be a forum for an exchange of ideas, insights and experience in different areas of mathematical modelling – from numerical methods and computer aspects to applications of mathematical modelling methods. This international conference belongs to a series of conferences held in Roznov 2009, Pilsen 2005, Pilsen 2001, Prague 1998.

Main topics topics include computational modelling in engineering and science: multiscale modelling, multiphysics modelling, progress in discretization methods, efficient solvers, nonlinear problems, reliable computations, challenging applications of mathematical modelling methods, exploiting massively parallel computing facilities.

25th August — 31th August Particles in Flows The aim of the summer school is to present a comprehensive series of lectures on various aspects of problems involving particles in flows. It is organized as a multidisciplinary event with topics ranging from theoretical and numerical mathematics up to physics and applications. The emphasize will be on models related to topics originating in environmental, biomedical and industrial applications. The summer course is prepared for graduate students, young scientists, and other interested specialists. Besides of the course lectures, the program will include a one day workshop (on Wednesday, August 27) dedicated to short, more advanced lectures given by attending scientists.
21st – 26th September 2014 Modeling, analysis and computing in nonlinear partial differential equations Conference organized as an activity of the ERC-CZ project Implicitly constituted material models: from theory through model reduction to efficient numerical methods. Details will be available soon.

Christmas party of our study program

Christmas party of our study program will be held Wednesday, December 18, 2013 in the auditorium K1 (Sokolovska 83) from 18:00.

The whole event, as usual, is organized by students of the 4th year.

You will find yourself in a good mood, with refreshments and singing Christmas carols….

Core hours in the National supercomputing facility IT4Innovations

Teams lead by Jaroslav Hron and Martin Řehoř succeeded in the grant competion on computer time in the national supercomputing facility IT4Innovations. Team lead by Jaroslav Hron got 100 000 core hours for project “Blood flow simulation in a patient specific geometry”, Martin Řehoř and his team got 50 000 core hours for project “Flows driven by diffuse interface models”. Congratulations and we are looking forward to nice results!

Open day

On Thursday 28th November Faculty of Mathematics and Physics organizes Open day. During the Open day you can get a lot of information on studying at Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, you can also meet face to face representatives of various study programs (including mathematical modeling), and, last but not least you can attend some popular science lectures. In particular, Ondřej Souček is going to give lecture “Nejdéle trvající vědecký experiment aneb ač se vleče, přece teče…”. The lecture will take place in lecture hall F2 and starts at 3:40 PM.

Detailed schedule is available at the faculty web pages.

Informal session to mark the beginning of the winter semester

The traditional informal session to mark the beginning of the winter semester will take place in Pivnice Kachna a Koráb on Monday, 21st October at 17:30. (The entrance to the pub is from Sokolovská street via an outdoor staircase, see the webpage of the pub.)

We are looking forward to meet all our students, lecturers, postdocs, and our “fans” in the pub.
