This collection of articles covers the hottest topics in contemporary applied mathematics. Multiscale modeling, material computing, symplectic methods, parallel computing, mathematical biology, applied differential equations and engineering computing problems are all included. The book contains the latest results of many leading scientists and provides a window on new trends in research in the field.

This new volume introduces readers to the current topics of industrial and applied mathematics in China, with applications to material science, information science, mathematical finance and engineering. The authors utilize mathematics for the solution of problems. The purposes of the volume are to promote research in applied mathematics and computational science; further the application of mathematics to new methods and techniques useful in industry and science; and provide for the exchange of information between the mathematical, industrial, and scientific communities.

The Shanghai Forum on Industrial and Applied Mathematics was organized in May 2006 on the occasion that many famous industrial and applied mathematicians gathered in Shanghai from different countries to participate in the Officers' Meeting and the Board Meeting of the ICIAM (International Council for Industrial and Applied Mathematics). This volume collects the material covered by the majority of the lectures of which reflects panoramically recent results and trends in industrial and applied mathematics. This book will be very useful for graduate students and researchers in industrial and applied mathematics.

This book gives a comprehensive overview of both the fundamentals of wavelet analysis and related tools, and of the most active recent developments towards applications. It offers a state-of-the-art in several active areas of research where wavelet ideas, or more generally multiresolution ideas have proved particularly effective. The main applications covered are in the numerical analysis of PDEs, and signal and image processing. Recently introduced techniques such as Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and new trends in the recovery of missing data, such as compressed sensing, are also presented. Applications range for the reconstruction of noisy or blurred images, pattern and face recognition, to nonlinear approximation in strongly anisotropic contexts, and to the classification tools based on multifractal analysis.

This volume is composed of two parts: Mathematical and Numerical Analysis for Strongly Nonlinear Plasma Models and Exact Controllability and Observability for Quasilinear Hyperbolic Systems and Applications. It presents recent progress and results obtained in the domains related to both subjects without attaching much importance to the details of proofs but rather to difficulties encountered, to open problems and possible ways to be exploited. It will be very useful for promoting further study on some important problems in the future.

Multi-Scale Phenomena in Complex Fluids is a collection of lecture notes delivered during the first two series of mini-courses from “Shanghai Summer School on Analysis and Numerics in Modern Sciences”, which was held in 2004 and 2006 at Fudan University, Shanghai, China.This review volume of 5 chapters, covering various fields in complex fluids, places emphasis on multi-scale modeling, analyses and simulations. It will be of special interest to researchers and graduate students who want to work in the field of complex fluids.

This book is a collection of lecture notes on Nonlinear Conservation Laws, Fluid Systems and Related Topics delivered at 2007 Shanghai Mathematics Summer School held at Fudan University, China, by world's leading experts in the field. The volume comprises ªve chapters that cover a range of topics from mathematical theory and numerical approximation of both incompressible and compressible ªuid ªows, kinetic theory and conservation laws, to statistical theories for ªuid systems. Researchers and graduate students who want to work in this field will benefit from this essential reference as each chapter leads readers from the basics to the frontiers of the current research in these areas.

This book provides a systematic introduction to the fundamental methods and techniques and the frontiers of ? along with many new ideas and results on ? infectious disease modeling, parameter estimation and transmission dynamics. It provides complementary approaches, from deterministic to statistical to network modeling; and it seeks viewpoints of the same issues from different angles, from mathematical modeling to statistical analysis to computer simulations and finally to concrete applications.

This book is a collection of lecture notes for the LIASFMA Shanghai Summer School on 'One-dimensional Hyperbolic Conservation Laws and Their Applications' which was held during August 16 to August 27, 2015 at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China. This summer school is one of the activities promoted by Sino-French International Associate Laboratory in Applied Mathematics (LIASFMA in short). LIASFMA was established jointly by eight institutions in China and France in 2014, which is aimed at providing a platform for some of the leading French and Chinese mathematicians to conduct in-depth researches, extensive exchanges, and student training in the field of applied mathematics. This summer school has the privilege of being the first summer school of the newly established LIASFMA, which makes it significant.
