Berlin PUM Workshop 2012

Analysis and Application of the GFEM, XFEM, MM
22 - 24 August 2012, Berlin, Germany

Scope

The intrinsic concept of the Partition of Unity Method (PUM) as devised by Babuška and Melenk may be found in many approaches such as Generalized Finite Element Methods (GFEM), eXtended Finite Element Methods (XFEM) and Meshless Methods (MM). Given this common concept, the aim of the Berlin PUM Workshop 2012 is to provide an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to discuss recent research results that may support a wide applicability in PUM related approaches. To build a foundation for these discussions, a number of experts has been invited to talk about their research. The covered topics will range from theoretical analysis of PUM based methods to applications and aspects of implementation. Anybody interested to participate is cordially invited to join the discussions and to give a presentation on his/her own research.

Invited Speakers

Update: Uday Banerjee and Thomas Fries have notfied us that they will unfortunately not be able to join us at the workshop.
