In recent years a tremendous progress has been made in the description of complex systems from natural and applied sciences like physics, biology or engineering. Due to the nature of complex systems mathematical models and numerical computations are often based on interacting particle systems of either stochastic or deterministic nature. Typical examples are problems from quantum mechanics, polymer physics or granular matters.
Beside this rather natural approach new modeling and simulation techniques
have been developed to describe complex systems like the dynamics of pedestrians or vehicle traffic, large communication networks or flocking birds. Additionally, from a more theoretical point of view modeling with N-particle systems is a crucial part to understand kinetic or macroscopic models based on partial differential equations.
This interdisciplinary workshop will bring together experts from physics, mathematics, biology and engineering in order to enhance the exchange of knowledge on modeling with N-particle systems and to provide the opportunity for joint future activities. Moreover it adresses to researchers from applied sciences who are not yet familiar with the concepts of N-particle systems. Finally, young researchers are encouraged to participate at the workshop not only to learn more about modeling with N-particle systems but also to contribute with own results of research during the poster session.
Application forms can be filled in online. The workshop's registration fee is 50 Euro (for non-students).
