E-mail: Pawel.Kosinski@ift.uib.no
Description of the topic of the session: Understanding fluid dynamics has been one of the major advances of mathematics, physics and engineering. Single- and multiphase flow technology is increasingly important in the energy and manufacturing industries. Heat transfer is of particular interest to engineers, who attempt to understand and control the flow of heat through the use of heat exchangers or thermal insulation, and other devices. Pollution control, pneumatic transport, combustion, development of new materials, engine design, as well as many other engineering applications will benefit from the fundamental engineering design application and research in the field. The objective of the session is to bring together scientists working on numerical and also experimental issues. They are called upon to present their research. Topics of interest include (but not limited!):

3) Title: "Computations of stochastic systems" Organizer: Prof. Magdy A. El-Tawil, Professor of Mathematics, Cairo University, Faculty of Engineering, Engineering Mathematics Department, Giza, Egypt.
E-mail: magdyeltawil@yahoo.com
Description of the topic of the session: The computations of probability density function (p.d.f.) or statistical moments of solutions of many stochastic systems are not always available in an analytical sense. One has to describe approximate methods to get approximate solutions for such uncertain systems. The high developments in computers, in general, and mainly in symbolic computations enlarge the usability of old and modern techniques which are computationally tedious, Pickard approximations for example. The aim of this session is to present some of such methods and techniques adapted to stochastic systems, for example: stochastic finite element (SFEM), stochastic finite difference, Pickard approximation, variational iteration method (VIM) and its modification, Adomian decomposition method (ADM), homotopy perturbation method and WHEP technique. Interested researchers in this session are invited to submit their manuscripts for the session organizer through E-mail. They will be E-mailed with the next steps after reviewing.

Description
Coagulation-fragmentation (CF) processes are important in many areas of science:
colloid chemistry, aerosol physics, astrophysics, polymer science, oil recovery
dynamics, and mathematical biology. The theory of CF processes originated in
1917 in the work of M. von Smoluchowski. Smoluchowski's model has since been
widely extended and generalised to include continuous models in terms of
nonlinear integro--differential or partial differential equations . Mathematical
problems that arise from such models include analyses of equilibria and their
stability, criteria for finite time gelation, connections between finite-dimensional
truncated systems and the original infinite-dimensional equations, existence and
stability of self-similar solutions, front propagation, and connections with
stochastic processes. There are many difficult issues associated with numerical
solution of these equations, which have been recently tackled by many methods,
including pivot techniques, quadrature method of moments, and wavelets. The
workshop will give an opportunity to modellers, numerical analysts, applied
scientists and mathematicians using CF processes to hear what is the state of
the art in this important area, and to exchange expertise. 5) Title: "Non-classical" diffusion mechanisms and patterns in materials science"

Mathematics, The University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, G1 1XH, Scotland, U.K. and

6) Title: "Partial Differential Equations in Fluid Dynamics"
Organizer:
Prof. Dr. CHEN SHUXING, School of Mathematical
Sciences, Fudan University, Shanghai, China 200433. E-mail: sxchen@public8.sta.net.cn
Description of the topic of the session:
The theory of partial differential equations play fundamental role in fluid
dynamics. For instance, the Euler system in inviscid flow, the Navier-Stocks
equations in viscous flow, the Plandtl equation in boundary layer, the Boltzmann
equation in rare gas are extremely important in studying the motion of the fluid
in the related fields. Although these equations are classical, the study on the
theory of these equations and their applications to various related problems is
always active and attracts many people attention. Essential development and new
results are obtained frequently. The aim of the symposium is to bring together
scientists working in this area to exchange the experience in their research
work, share their most recent results, as well as to study open problems in the
field.
