Energy Management: Flexibility, Risk and Optimisation
The principal objective of this workshop was to bring the disciplines of power systems engineering and mathematics closer together to address the energy trilemma: the need for energy supply to...
Workshop
17-17 Jun 2016
Computational Optimisation in Action
Solving convex optimisation problems, whether generated directly or as sub-problems when solving non-convex problems, is the principal requirement in computational optimisation. Ever-increasing problem size is driving the development of novel...
Workshop
20-24 Jun 2016
Metamaterials Beyond Photonics
A metamaterial is a synthetic inhomogeneous material with wave bearing properties that differ significantly from those exhibited by homogeneous media, due to its complex microstructure. The idea of being inhomogeneous...

Stochastic Models of the Spread of Disease and Information on Networks
Despite major advances due to vaccination, hygiene and pharmaceutical interventions, infectious diseases continue to pose a serious threat to public health. Notable examples of epidemics during recent decades include the...
Workshop
11-15 Jul 2016
Computation in Geometric and Combinatorial Group Theory
The workshop included participation from younger mathematicians to inspire them to work in this newly developing area. As a result of this workshop there was a significant increase in the quality...
Workshop
18-22 Jul 2016
Trapped Waves and Wave Radiation in Fluid Mechanics
Trapped wave phenomena are challenging to analyse and predict, as they usually require the study of partial differential equations with one or more complications from complex boundaries, variable co-efficients or...
