ABSTRACT

In recent years there have been rapid developments in mathematical description of collective dynamics, driven by nonlinear transport equations with local and non-local means. This includes multi-scale phenomena ranging from agent-based through kinetic and hydrodynamics descriptions of models related to the emergence of coherent structures in crowd and traffic dynamics, flocking, swarming, ... The modeling, analysis and efficient computation of these phenomena are the main focus of this conference.  

GOALS

This aim of this conference is to bring together researchers working on different aspects of transport across multiple scales and present state of art theoretical and numerical results and their interplay with current applications.
