Welcome to the AIMASIM Workshop on Goal-Oriented Anisotropic Space-Time Mesh Adaption, organized by the members of DAAD-project 57729992, "Goal-oriented AnIsotropic Space-Time Mesh
Adaption (AIMASIM)" in the funding program “Programm des projektbezogenen Personenaustauschs Griechenland ab 2024”. Join leading researchers in the field as we explore the latest advancements, methodologies, and applications in anisotropic space-time mesh adaption.
Workshop Overview:
This workshop brings together experts to discuss cutting-edge techniques in mesh adaptation, specifically focusing on goal-oriented and anisotropic approaches. Participants will have the opportunity to exchange ideas, and collaborate on innovative strategies that address contemporary challenges in numerical simulations.
Key Topics:
- Anisotropic mesh generation and adaption
- Goal-oriented error estimation and its application in mesh refinement
- Space-time adaptive methods for time-dependent problems
Who Should Attend:
This workshop is designed for researchers, and students with an interest in numerical analysis, computational engineering, and scientific computing. Whether you are a professional working with numerical simulations or a researcher focusing on mesh adaption techniques, this workshop provides valuable insights and networking opportunities.
