Objectives




The increasing necessity to solve complex problems in science and 
engineering accounting for all the coupling occurring on the different 
scales of the problem requires the development of new ideas and methods 
which can effectively provide accurate numerical solutions in affordable 
computing times.

The objective of Coupled Problems 2007 is to present and discuss state of 
the art, mathematical methods, numerical methods and computational 
techniques for solving coupling problems of multidisciplinary character in 
science and engineering. Emphasis will be given on showing the potential of 
new computational methods for solving practical multidisciplinary problems 
of industrial interest.

The first edition of these series of conferences was held on 25-28 May 2005 
in Santori Island, Greece and attracted some 150 participants.

The goal of COUPLED PROBLEMS 2007 is to make a step forward in the 
formulation and solution of real life problems with a multidisciplinary 
vision accounting for all the complex couplings involved in the physical 
description of the problem.

Conference Topics
Papers are welcomed in one of the following topics (the list is not 
exhaustive):
