IV Workshop on Fluids and PDE

IMPA, Rio de Janeiro May 26 – 30, 2014 

The main theme of the workshop is mathematical modeling and rigorous analysis of fluid dynamics problems, particularly incompressible flows with little regularity (non-smooth) and turbulent flows. It is a strategic area that touches on several relevant problems in applications such as aerodynamic flow modeling, turbulence modeling and analysis, turbulence flow, oceanographic and geophysical flows relevant to meteorology, etc. The scientific rationale in this area is subordinated to mathematical advances and is relatively undeveloped in Brazil; so this meeting was quite timely.

The research area dealing with these problems has generated intense activity over the last two decades. There is a research group in this area in Brazil, with concentration in Rio de Janeiro, but still needs to be consolidated. Expanding this state and national group is one of the main motivations of this event.

This workshop is held every two or three years in Brazil. Its fourth was the closing event of a thematic program on Dynamics of Incompressible Fluids, which was held at IMPA in the period from March 12 to June 12, 2014.
