OBJECTIVE
The international conference, p and hp Finite Element Methods: Mathematics
and Engineering Practice, is dedicated to Professor Barna A. Szabo
on the occasion of his sixty-fifth birthday. Being one of the founders
of the p-version of the FEM, Professor Szabo has been working on
and advocating these methods for the past 30 years. He has played a key
role in emphasizing the need for estimating the reliability of computed
data, and in the effective implementation of p and hp FEM
in industrial computer codes used in daily engineering practice. The main
objective of the conference is to bring together researchers with interests
in the mathematical, engineering practice and computational aspects of
the p and hp (and high-order/spectral) methods for the solution
of partial differential equations (mainly associated with solid and fluid
mechanics). It is anticipated that the conference will provide a forum
for interaction between a broad group of scientists and engineers with
diverse interests in the mathematical and engineering application of p
and hp methods.
TOPICS
-
A-priori and a-posteriori error estimation.
-
Efficient solution algorithms for system of equations generated by p
and hp methods.

-
p and hp-BEM.
-
Other applications of p/hp methods.
