Announcement and Call for Papers for the
Fourth International Symposium on
Finite Volumes for Complex Applications
- Problems and Perspectives -
July 4-8, 2005 /Marrakech, Morocco
Objectives:
The
goal of the symposium is to bring together mathematicians, physicists
and engineers who are concerned with Finite Volume Techniques in a wide
context. Examples for the broad field of applications are fluid
dynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, structural analysis or nuclear physics.
A
closer look reveals many interesting phenomena and mathematical or
numerical difficulties, such as true error analysis and adaptivity,
modelling of multi-phase phenomena or fitting problems, stiff terms in
convection/diffusion equations and sources. To overcome existing
problems and to find solution methods for future applications requires
many efforts and always new developments.
The
main issue of the symposium is thus a critical look at the subject. New
ideas may be presented, even if they have not yet shown full success.
The demonstration of limits or drawbacks of methods is explicitly
welcome. Contributions may put main emphasis on theoretical as well as
applied topics. Most welcome are contributions, concerned with unsolved
or not yet fully solved problems and possible new attempts.
Topics of Main Interest:
Among the wide
range of topics main emphasis is put on the following
- New
schemes and methods
- New fields
of application
- Non
Homogeneous systems
- Convergence
and stability analysis
- Global
error analysis
- Purely
multidimensional difficulties
- Limits of
methods
- Complex
geometries and adaptivity
- Complexity,
efficiency and large computations
- Distributive
computation
- Multi-
phase problems and fitting
- Combustion
problems
- Climate
and Ocean modelling, Atmospheric pollution
- Kinetic
equations
- Water
Waves
- Chaotic
problems (turbulence, ignition, mixing, ...)
- Comparisons
with experimental results

Submission of Papers:
Those wishing to present a contribution at the
symposium are invited to submit their paper (10 pages max) to one
of the members of the Organizing Committee.
This (pdf) papers should be sent by email.
Papers must arrive no later than February 15, 2005.
Selections are made upon originality of the subjects proposed and
clarity. Work in progress is welcome. Please indicate if you would
rather present your work at an oral session or at a poster session.
Both
types of contributions (if accepted) will be published.
Notification of acceptance will be forwarded by April
1, 2005. Advises for the lay out of the final paper will be
given soon. Proceedings will be available at
the symposium. Only papers from registered delegates will be printed.
Guide for Authors
Manuscripts should be prepared
for review following standard procedures for scientific publications.
Please use the style provided here in the file FVCA.cls.
A sample
is provided also, to serve as a guide for using FVCA.cls.
Proceedings and
publication
Contributions
will be refereed by the scientific committee of FVCA4, and published in
Proceedings. A book of abstracts will be available at the conference in
Marrakech.
Among these contributions, some will be
proposed for publication in
the International Journal on Finite Volumes IJFV. The editorial
board of IJFV could then ask the involved authors for a more detailed
version of their
article, which would be subject to the standard process of publication
of the review. So please respect the deadlines very strictly.
Conference
language:
Papers
and presentations must be in English.
