New Materials, Adaptive Systems and Their Nonlinearities:
Modelling, Control and Numerical Simulation

A Research Training Network (RTN) project sponsored by the European Community

Duration: 1 November 2002 to 31 October 2006

Coordinator: Prof. B. Miara, ESIEE, France

Link to the official homepage of this Research Training Network New materials, adaptive systems and their nonlinearities.

Local Team at WIAS, Berlin:

Dr. Dorothee Knees
Professor Alexander Mielke (team leader)
Dipl.-Math. Florian Schmid
Dr. Aida Timofte

The expertise of the Stuttgart team covers the fields of nonlinear partial differential equations, calculus of variations and continuum mechanics. In particular we are interested in nonlinear effects, such as buckling, hysteresis effects in shape-memory alloys, and elastoplasticity at finite strain.
