The Second Summer Workshop on Advanced Research in Applied Mathematics and Scientific Computing 2014 (ARAMSC-2014) will be held from June 15th, 2014 to August 30th, 2014 (tentative) at the School of Mathematical Sciences of Ocean University of China, Qingdao, China.
In the Workshop, we will apply state-of-arts numerical algorithms for solving nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs) and will review research of current topics in applied mathematics, numerical analysis, parallel computing, computational fluid dynamics, oceanography, electromagnetics and detonation, to name a few. The students will be tasked to research a problem by studying relevant literature, learning how to implement appropriate state-of-arts algorithms in solving problems, and, at the end of the Workshop, write and publish a paper about the research in an international journal. A merit certificate will be awarded to the students who have completed the Workshop satisfactorily. During the Workshop, mentors will be available for individual meetings and group discussions will be held often to ensure steady progress in each individual student’s research. Intellectual collaboration and teamwork is strongly encouraged.
We are inviting (8-10) qualified, motivated applicants to apply for the Workshop. We are seeking outstanding graduate students and exceptional undergraduate students who are interested in the interdisciplinary research in applied mathematics and scientific computing. Students are also invited to submit a research proposal if they have a particular area of research they would like to pursue. Prior experiences in high level programming, such as FORTRAN, C or Matlab, in the solution of partial differential equations are preferred. A tutorial in object oriented programming with Fortran95 in a Linux OS will be given at the beginning of the Workshop. A full commitment of efforts and time by the participants throughout the Workshop is expected.
If admitted, dormitory accommodation during the Workshop and a monthly stipend for local expenses will be provided to the students and a reasonable roundtrip travel expense will be reimbursed. If interested, please submit the CV, transcripts, research proposal if any, and two letters of recommendation to Prof. Gao Zhen by email before the April 15th, 2014 application deadline.
If you have any questions regarding the Workshop, please feel free to contact one of the Workshop organizers. If you like to talk to the former students about their summer research experiences last summer, please contact Mr. Li Peng(weilailp@163.com) and Mr. Jia Felin(jiafeilin1990@gmail.com).
