Title: Numerical models to study the cerebrospinal system Abstract: Recent studies have shown that blood and cerebrospinal fluid flow in the cranial system plays an important role in the the proper functioning of our brain. The complexity of the dynamics of these flows complicates the understanding of certain pathologies. A…

Title: Convergence of adaptive discontinuous Galerkin methods Abstract: Consulting the unprecedented developments of convergence and optimality theory of conforming adaptive finite element methods during the last two decades, the strict Dörfler marking and the resulting reduction of some error quantity appears to be fundamental for most of the results. A…

Title: Une méthode de Nitsche pour les problèmes de contact en dynamique Abstract: les problèmes de contact en mécanique des solides font intervenir des contraintes de type inégalités pouvant être traitées avec des multiplicateurs de Lagrange, des inéquations variationnelles ou de la pénalisation par exemple. Dans cet exposé nous adaptons…

Title: Modeling and inverse problems in tumor growth Abstract: Recently, mathematical modeling of cancer started drawing great interest from the medical community. Indeed, developing models able to describe accurately tumor growth may help monitoring the disease evolution or even predicting the efficacy of different therapeutic strategies. Such applications are made…
