THE CENTER FOR BOUNDARY INTEGRAL METHODS

AIMS

The center intends to develop general and efficient methodologies for the theoretical and numerical solution of initial-boundary value problems arising from mathematical models in continuum mechanics, physics, and finance. The results of this research will be disseminated through books, articles published in learned journals, and conference presentations.
