Professor from Oxford University visited RUDN University with a series of lectures on partial differential equations and medical applications

October 7 - 9, Mathematical Institute n.a. S.M. Nikolsky of RUDN University hosted prof. Philip Miney, a leading world expert in the field of mathematical biology and the head of the Center for Mathematical Biology (Oxford University, QS-5).

Professor Philippe Miney is a board member of the Society of Mathematical Biology and the European Society of Mathematical and Theoretical Biology, a member of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications, the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics and the Society of Biology, and a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of Mexico. In 2014, he was included in the list of “The Most Influential Scientific Minds of the World 2014” (Thomson Reuters.) Arthur T. Winfrey Prize winner from the Society for Mathematical Biology.

Mathematical Institute n.a. S.M. Nikolsky of RUDN University organized a series of lectures by Professor Miney.  The staff of the Mathematical Institute, graduate students and students listened to a series of lectures on the following topics: “Diffusion instability”, “Running waves”, “Nerve impulses”. Professor Miney's scientific interests cover the following issues: modeling of avascular and vascular tumors, dynamics of wound healing, the use of mathematical modeling in the formation of a pattern in the early stages of development, as well as the theoretical analysis of mathematical models that arise in these applications.

In 2017, RUDN University scientists constructed a new explicit second-order precision difference scheme using modern computer algebra methods for 2-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) [1]. This year, our mathematicians used a new scheme [2] to construct a numerical solution to the Cauchy problem with initial data (for t=0) as satisfying the continuity equation. Scientists managed to achieve previously unattainable accuracy of the continuity equation.

RUDN ecologist Anna Kurbatova became the only speaker from Russia at the WtERT World Congress in China

Landfills are the third largest source of anthropogenic methane in the world. They account for ~11% of estimated global emissions. Methane is 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide and is the second largest driver of man-made climate change. Scientists from around the world met at Zhejiang University's Hangzhou campus to determine the best available technologies for recovering energy and materials from non-recyclable residual waste.
