Intensive Research Programme in Nonsmooth Dynamics

February 1, 2016 - April 30, 2016

Centre de Recerca Matemàtica, Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain.

This program will take stock of recent advances in Nonsmooth Dynamics and where the field is going. As a general theory of how switches, impacts, and other discontinuities affect dynamical systems, Nonsmooth Dynamics has always been strongly informed by applications. By bringing theoretical and practical insights together at a time of rapidly growing interest, we will try to solve some major outstanding problems in an intensive but open forum. Activities to be held in the Research Programme are: Conference on "Open Problems in Nonsmooth Dynamics;" February 1-5, 2016, 3 short courses on1. Nonsmooth networks2. The complementarity approach applied3. The Filippov approach and beyond; February 29-March 4, 2016; Workshop on "Nonsmooth Dynamics, the way forward" April 25-29, 2016.
