- Aims: The two main themes of
this three-week conference are (a) three
dimensional aspects of nonlinear waves and
patterns and (b) wind-wave, wave-wave and wave-turbulence
interactions. Subthemes at the conference will
include: Large-amplitude and breaking waves; Wind-wave
and wave-wave interactions; Hamiltonian and multi-symplectic
formulations; Solitary waves and fronts; Water-wave
turbulence and Euler-turbulence; Linear and
nonlinear asymptotic models; Stability of waves
and patterns; Effect of dissipation and forcing;
Analysis and development of model PDEs;
Statistical versus deterministic nonlinear models;
The limiting form of 3D waves; Integrability of
water waves and model PDE. The conference
organisers are S E Belcher (Reading), T J Bridges
(Surrey) and S G Sajjadi (Salford). As planning
develops, information about the conference will
be posted at the website
- Second workshop on
The
Conley Index and Related Topics, 15-18 August 2001
.
- Sherbrooke (Quebec), Canada.
- The objective of the workshop is to stimulate an exchange and
collaboration on various problems related to extensions and
applications of the Conley index theory as well as to the
computation of the index. A particular place will be given to infinite
dimensional Conley index, computational topology and computational
dynamics, applications of the index to differential equations, discrete
dynamical systems and experimental time series.

Simulation (SIM'01),
1-6 September 2001.
- Malta.
- First SIAM Conference on
Imaging Science,
22-24 September 2001.
- Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

October
2001
- School on
Analysis Techniques for Space Plasma Data,
8-13 October 2001.
- La Londe-Les Maures (French Riviera).
- The objective of this school is to present data analysis techniques
for the study of space plasmas. A central issue will be the
interpretation of these techniques, their validation and an
understanding of their limitations. The focus will be put on
experimental wave and particle data, but several aspects of simulation
data analysis will be considered as well.
The programme includes introductory and advanced courses on topics
such as:
- Spectral analysis (Fourier and correlation techniques,
time-frequency analysis, wave identification...)
- Multipoint analysis techniques for CLUSTER-II
- Statistical analysis of turbulence (higher order statistics...)
- Nonlinear wave interactions (higher order spectra...),
- Nonlinear dynamics and deterministic models (chaotic dynamics,
prediction...)
- Applied topics (data preprocessing, denoising, hypothesis testing,
long-range correlations and self-similarity)
- Special topics (artificial intelligence, inverse problems)

Diffuse Interface Problems in Fluid Mechanics and Materials Science,
in the Microgravity Science and Space Processing Symposium at the
40th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit.
14-17 January 2002.
- Reno Hilton, Reno, NV, USA.

New Directions in Dynamical Systems 2002
(ICM 2002 Satellite Conference), 5-15 August 2002.
- Ryukoku University (August 5-9, 2002) and
Kyoto University (August 11-15, 2002), Kyoto, Japan.
- About the conference: The objective of the
conference is to stimulate the exchange of
new ideas in various fields of dynamical systems. Any field of
dynamical systems theory will be treated in NDDS2002, with special
emphasis on new directions of reserach for future development.
The topics include: smooth dynamical systems, complex dynamical
systems and foliations, ergodic theory, Hamiltonian systems,
low-dimensional dynamics, topological methods, rigidity,
bifurcation theory...
The organizing committee intends to select such new topics
and invite the most suitable speakers possible. Every participant
will have the opportunity to give a contributed presentation.
Young researchers and students are therefore particularly welcome
to take part in the conference.
The conference will consist of two parts: The first week
is mainly formed by series of lectures on selected topics. This will
be held at Ryukoku University, Fukakusa campus (south part of Kyoto
city) from August 5th to 9th. The second week is formed by invited
and contributed talks including short communications, which will
be held at Kyoto University (north-east part of Kyoto city) from
August 11th to 15th.
