14th Fall seminar on Nonlinear Dynamics 2009

 

University of Bayreuth

4 - 7 October 2009

organized by H. R. Brand, T. Fischer, I. Rehberg, and W. Zimmermann

This seminar will keep the tradition of the fall meetings of the German Nonlinear Science Community alive, an initiative established in 1995 during a Heraeus Seminar in Bad Honnef as a forum supporting discussions among renowned experts and young scientists.

The 14th meeting is supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) via Research unit Forschergruppe 608.

Invited speakers include:

•  A. C. Newell (University of Arizona, USA)
  Phyllotaxis and patterns on plants
  4th Lorenz Kramer memorial lecture
  

• A. Bausch (TU München, Germany)
  Cytoskeletal Mechanics: Structure and Dynamics
  

• T. Bohr (Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby, Denmark)
  The Rise and Fall of the Sap: Fluid Dynamics in Trees
  

• J. Dawes (University of Bath, U. K.)
  Localised Pattern Formation
  

• D. Lohse (University of Twente, Netherlands)
  Heterogeneous Cavitation
  

• G. Maret (Universität Konstanz, Germany)
  2D-Glass Transition in Binary Colloidal Mixtures
  

• A. Melzer (Universität Greifswald, Germany)
  Finite Coulomb Clusters in Strongly Coupled Dusty Plasmas
  

• T. Ohta (Kyoto University, Japan)
  Dynamics of Deformable Self-Propelled Particles
  

• D. Quéré (ESPCI Paris, France)
  A Few Impacts In a Few Liquids
  

• H. Stark (TU Berlin, Germany)
  Biofluiddynamics: Nonlinear Dynamics at Low Reynolds Number
  

The conference will start at 18.30h on Sunday, October 4, with a Welcome Party at the tavern Oskar (Maximilianstrasse 33, c.f. Map).

The 4th Lorenz Kramer Memorial Lecture will be delivered by Alan C. Newell on Tuesday afternoon. The Physical Institute of the University of Bayreuth recognizes in this way the outstanding contributions of the late Prof. L. Kramer to the focus subject "Nonlinear Physics" at Bayreuth. The support of the Emil Warburg foundation, which has received particular donations for this purpose, is gratefully acknowledged.

In the evening of Tuesday, we will have a dinner at a typical Franconian tavern.

The conference will end on Wednesday at noon.

Applications should be sent to nonlinear@uni-bayreuth.de immediately with the title and an abstract of the contribution. Please use this template file: abstract.doc.

Please also let us know your traveling details, we shall make a hotel reservation for you. Limited funding for participants with accepted contributions, especially for young scientists, is available.

The hotels for the speakers and the participants are either close to the station or to the university.

The deadline will be on Friday, September 4.

Poster presentation:

On Monday, October 5, we will have a short oral poster presentation.

On this occasion, every participant presenting a poster is asked to introduce his/her poster within three minutes or less. You can either use a transparency for the overhead projector or prepare a PDF-file or PPT-file for the video projector. In the latter case, you must send your file to the conference office nonlinear@uni-bayreuth.de before Sunday, 4 October, 2009.
