International Conference: Nonlinear Waves--Theory and Applications

 MINISYMPOSIA

Nonlinear Water Waves
Organizer: Min. Chen

This session is centered on the propagation of water waves where nonlinearity, dispersion and sometimes dissipation, capillarity and random noises are all acting. Featured in the session will be theoretical work and numerical simulations on issues such as the stability and long-time behavior of solutions.
