Subject: New Book, From Magnetic Fields to Symmetries and Optimization
From Magnetic Fields to Symmetries and Optimization by Lise-Marie
Imbert-Gérard, Elizabeth J. Paul, and Adelle M. Wright
This self-contained book is the first to provide readers with an
introduction to the mathematical foundations of stellarator design and
modeling. It covers the fundamental theoretical building blocks of
modeling magnetic fields, some of the associated challenges, and the
main concepts behind optimization for the design of stellarators. The
book is divided into two parts, with Part I providing a general
introduction to the stellarator concept and Part II describing
mathematical models and numerical methods commonly used in stellarator
design.
The authors derive, present, and discuss relevant models, using
equations and figures to demonstrate the main ideas. They carefully
select language that is close to the plasma physics literature, while
providing enough details to be accessible to a reader without previous
background in this field.

Subject: New Book, Implicit-Explicit Methods for Evolutionary Partial Differential Equations
New Book, Implicit-Explicit Methods for Evolutionary Partial
Differential Equations by Sebastiano Boscarino, Lorenzo Pareschi, and
Giovanni Russo
Implicit-explicit (IMEX) time discretization methods have proven to be
highly effective for the numerical solution of a wide class of
evolutionary partial differential equations (PDEs) across various
contexts. These methods have become mainstream for solving
evolutionary PDEs, particularly in the fields of hyperbolic and
kinetic equations.
The first book on the subject, Implicit-Explicit Methods for
Evolutionary Partial Differential Equations provides an in-depth yet
accessible approach. The authors summarize and illustrate the
construction, analysis, and application of IMEX methods using
examples, test cases, and implementation details; guide readers
through the various methods and teach them how to select and use the
one most appropriate for their needs; and demonstrate how to identify
stiff terms and effectively implement high-order methods in time for a
variety of systems of PDEs.
Readers interested in learning modern techniques for the effective
numerical solution of evolutionary PDEs with multiple time scales will
find in this book a unified, compact, and accessible treatment.

Subject: New Book, Spline Functions: More Computational Models
Spline Functions: More Computational Models by Larry L. Schumaker
This book is a continuation of the author’s earlier book Spline
Functions: Computational Methods, published in 2015 by SIAM. This new
book focuses on computational methods developed in the last ten years
that make use of splines to approximate functions and data and to
solve boundary-value problems. The first half of the book works with
bivariate spaces of splines defined on H- triangulations, T-meshes,
and curved triangulations. Trivariate tensor-product splines and
splines on tetrahedral partitions are also discussed. The second half
of the book makes use of these spaces to solve boundary-value
problems, with a special emphasis on elliptic PDEs defined on curved
domains. The book contains numerous examples and figures to illustrate
the methods and their performance.
•In addition to the included bibliography, a 125-page list of
additional references can be downloaded from the SIAM website.
•All of the algorithms in the book have been coded in MATLAB and are
included in a package that can also be downloaded from the website. It
can be used to run all of the examples in the book. The package also
provides an extensive toolbox of functions that readers can utilize to
develop their own spline software.
The book is designed for mathematicians, engineers, scientists, and
anyone else wanting to make use of spline functions for numerical
computation.

Subject: Advanced Scientific Computing with Julia, Jan 2025
Dear colleagues,
Together with my colleague Carlos Castillo at UC|Chile, we are
organizing a workshop entitled "Advanced Scientific Computing using
Julia", to be held on-site only at the Pontificia Universidad Católica
de Chile, campus San Joaquín the days 10/01 and 13/01, 2025.
Julia is a modern programming language, designed to generate fast code
with an extensible and simple syntax, which makes it an idea tool for
scientific computing. Still, learning it independently in order to
obtain performant code can be challenging. This will be a 2-day
hands-on workshop in which you will write your own code and learn how
to improve it to obtain up to a 1000x speed-up.
The event also has the scope of getting together the community using
this language, so registration is free but mandatory at the following
address, where you will also find the detailed programme:
https://librehub.github.io/2024/12/19/julia-ws-2024.html
We will also leave room within the event for people to present their
developments. If you are interested in this, please send me an email
(nicolas.barnafi@uc.cl) to arrange further details, or if you missed
the registration deadline.
Best regards,
Nicolás

need to be identified from the external factors to the system as well
as from the data related to the energy consumption of the analyzed
system. The construction of the dataset may require, in addition to
the acquisition of thermal and thermodynamic measurements, appropriate
scaling, removal of outliers, and 12 imputation of missing data. The
second phase will focus on the definition and training of suitable
models, which will then be validated and monitored.
The duration of the appointment is for 12 months, starting the 1 of
March 2025. Deadline for applications February 6, 2025, 13:00 CET.
Eligibility criteria:
