Nonlinearity
in Amsterdam
Nonlinearity in
Amsterdam is a seminar on nonlinear phenomena in the mathematical
description and analysis of problems in science and engineering. It
aims to bring together fields such as nonlinear partial differential
equations, dynamical systems and mathematical modeling.
