Nonsmooth Problems with Applications in Mechanics
May 19 - 23, 2025, Olomouc, Czech republic
The international conference Nonsmooth Problems with Applications in Mechanics 2025 (NOPAM 2025) will be held from May 19th to May 23th, 2025 in Olomouc, Czech republic, organized by the Department of Mathematical Analysis and Applications of Mathematics, Faculty of Science, Palacký University Olomouc. This is the second conference of the same basic name, directly following the NOPAM 2023 conference, which took place in 2023 in Bedlew, Poland.
This conference will delve into a wide array of topics related to nonsmooth problems, from exploring new classes defined by fixed points, inclusions, and variational or hemivariational inequalities to investigating their existence and uniqueness. Discussions will also address well-posedness, emphasizing how solutions depend on input data and how different nonsmooth problems interconnect. A special focus will be placed on the challenges of optimal control, an area where progress has been limited due to the complexity and irregularity of solutions. Additionally, the conference will highlight advancements in numerical methods, including error analysis and convergence for discrete models, offering new insights into these challenging mathematical problems.
