Organisers

The aim of the workshop is to bring together experts from analysis, numerical mathematics, modelling and applications related to micromagnetism to stimulate discussion and to facilitate the exchange of ideas across disciplines. We hope to identify areas where the different disciplines could benefit from interactions with experts from other disciplines and where such collaboration could lead to significant advances in the solution of theoretical and practical micromagnetic problems and nonlinear partial differential equations in general. Although the focus of the meeting is on nonlinear partial differential equations in micromagnetism, there is an overlap with a range of related areas, such as, for instance, nonlinear stochastic (partial) differential equations, Navier-Stokes equations, harmonic heat flow and wave map equations, Maxwell's equations, linear and nonlinear elasticity and plasticity, thin-film equations.
