X–DMS 2015: eXtended Discretization MethodS

XFEM, GFEM, Non Conforming, Patches and nonstandard finite elements

9 – 11 September, 2015 – Ferrara, Italy

X–DMS 2015: eXtended Discretization MethodS

continues and replaces the successful X-FEM conference cycle (Achen 2009, Cardiff 2011, Lyon 2013) and aims at including a wider variety of methodologies coming from different areas of computational mechanics and numerical analysis.

The conference topics include fundamental research, applications and computational studies devoted to the progress of extended and specialized discretization methods such as, but not limited to:

• Partition of Unity methods (Meshfree, XFEM/GFEM);
• Patch Methods;
• Fictitious Domain Methods;
• Strong Discontinuity Approaches (SDA);
• Local/Global Non-Intrusive Coupling;
• Finite Cell Methods;
• Multiscale Discretization;
• Special techniques for static and evolving interfaces;
• Crossover approaches, such as integration of PUFEM with isogeometric method.

X-DMS is an ECCOMAS thematic conference and an IACM special interest conference.

You are cordially invited to attend X-DMS and visit Ferrara.
