Description:
The workshop will concentrate on modern aspects of PDE using
analytical and geometric methods, including recent developments in
the Calculus of variations, systems of conservation laws, and
transport equations. A number of applications will be considered,
such as continuum mechanics, especially nonlinear elasticity, the
structure of materials, and biomaterials. The speakers at the
workshop are of the highest international calibre, ranging from two
Fields Medalists to outstanding young researchers.
