GOALS
Industry is meeting ever more complex and
challenging problems, which must be solved by using state of the art
mathematical and advanced computational tools. Academic institutions often have
the knowledge and expertise to be of great help in this field. Further,
Computational Science is a rapidly growing field to understand and solve
complex problems in Society and Industry. It takes contributions from multiple
disciplines to combine software, networks and IT resources to perform
computational tasks. An important feature is the momentum for setting up of
collaborative teams working on multidisciplinary challenges in industry and
society.
This workshop is set up as a forum where both
industry and governmental institutions can co-operate to solve large scale
multiphysics problems. In particular the workshop will focus on strategies to
increase the interaction between industry and academia in order to help
industry (in particular SME) and society with advanced grid technologies,
mathematical and computational tools.
After three French/Finnish workshops in 2001 (Jyvaskyla), 2003 (Sophia-Antipolis),
2005 (Helsinki) on modeling, analysis and optimization for the design of
coupled industrial systems, this fourth edition is multidisciplinary, combining
the power of mathematics and Computational Science in applied sciences and
engineering, for modeling, simulation and optimization. It is set up by a joint
effort of ECCOMAS, the MASI Tekes program and
SCOMA.

Objectives
Simulation and Optimization for the
design of complex artefacts requiring advanced multi physics simulation and
optimisation and the deployment of collaborative platforms using grids and
supercomputing technologies for high performance computing, resource sharing
and parallelism. The objectives of this workshop is to bring together researchers from public
labs and from the industry to discuss the methods for solving challenging problems in Industry
and society, the performance of new methods and their associated software,
concerning:
° Multi-physics modelization for aeroacoustics and
electromagnetics software
° Multi-level methods and adapted
structured/unstructured meshes for analysis software
° Adjoint-based gradient methods,
global optimization methods, Evolutionary Algorithms, Shape optimization
° Fast solvers for Image Processing
° Robust Control for distributed
systems
° Grid computing technologies
° Open source middleware
Industrial Applications
° Airplane, UVA
systems and drone design: drag reduction, fluid-structure optimization, noise
reduction, sonic boom reduction
° Automobile design: weight
