Numerical
Computation of Nonlinear Waves
Organizer: Semyon V. Tsynkov (North Carolina State University, USA)
The speakers will present recent advances in the development of
numerical methods for the simulation of nonlinear wave phenomena.
Both time domain and frequency domain methods will be discussed as
they apply to a variety of problems in optics, continuum mechanics,
and other areas.
