MURPHYS-HSFS-2014

We are pleased to announce the joint international multidisciplinary workshop MURPHYS-HSFS-2014. The workshop will take place at the Weierstrass Institute (WIAS) in Berlin, Germany, April 7-11, 2014. The workshop will be devoted to mathematical theory and applications of systems with hysteresis and multiple scale systems.

MURPHYS (Multi-Rate Processes and Hysteresis) is the 7th workshop that continues a series of biennial conferences. MURPHYS focuses on multiple scale, singular perturbation, phase transition and hysteresis phenomena occurring in mathematical, physical, economical, engineering and information systems.

HSFS (Hysteresis and Slow-Fast Systems) is the follow-up of a workshop organized in the framework of the Collaborative Research Center 910 (Berlin). HSFS focuses on reaction-diffusion equations with hysteresis, systems with different temporal and spatial scales, and applications to self-organizing nonlinear systems.

Important dates:

 

Main topics covered in MURPHYS-HSFS-2014:

·        hysteresis phenomena

·        multiple scale systems

·        self-organizing nonlinear systems

·        rate-independent systems and energetic solutions

·        singular perturbations

·        noise and fluctuations in systems with memory

·        phase transitions

·        stochastic and coherence resonances
