Computational Mathematics trends in science and engineering
A workshop, held at the University of Pittsburgh,
CANCELLED
(May 21-22, 2020)
The problem of numerical solution of complicated, coupled systems of evolution equations arises in nearly every application of scientific and technological importance, from aerodynamics to material sciences, acoustics, climate change, groundwater transport, image processing, risk assessment and uncertainty quantification.
This workshop brings together experts from a wide range of mathematical communities to present their work in analysis, algorithmics, numerics, and computation applied to science and engineering applications.
There is no charge for attending the workshop, but interested parties should register.

The Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) is 20.5 miles away from the University of Pittsburgh (25-45 minutes driving time depending on the time of day). There are several options to get to campus from the airport.- Yellow Cab (412-321-8100). The average taxi fare from the airport to campus is approximately $45.
- Express Shuttle Service (1-800-991-9890). A shuttle service between the airport and the downtown Pittsburgh and Oakland areas. The fare is $25 one way and $43 round trip.
- SuperShuttle (1-800-258-3826). Another shuttle service that serves the airport and the Oakland/Downtown area.
- Public Bus Transportation
with Port Authority Transit 28X Airport Flyer. The trip cost is $3.75 one way and
exact change is required. The bus runs every 30 minutes from the airport at gate #6,
and the duration of the trip is typically 50 minutes.
See the flyer
for more details.
Parking
If you need to park on campus, you might want to park at the following garages:- Soldiers and Sailors (SO): The rates are 0-1 hour $4; 1-2 hours $5; 2-4 hours $7; 4-6 hours $8; 6-8 hours $10; 8-10 hours $12; Over 10 hours $14.
- O'Hara (OH) : The rates are 0-1 hour $4; 1-2 hours $5; 2-4 hours $8; 4-6 hours $9; 6-8 hours $10; 8-10 hours $14; Over 10 hours $17.
- All garages are listed on this map.
Dining Options
There are several dining options throughout the Oakland area. I personally recommend Ali Baba (Middle Eastern), Peter's Pub (American), Fuel and Fuddle (American), or the Spice Island Tea House (Asian). The locations of these restarants are given in this map.Contact:
