Speaker

• 

Šárka Nečasová is Head of the Department of Evolution DEs and Researcher in the Institute of Mathematics, Czech Academy of Sciences of the Czech Rep., Prague. She is a renowned expert in the mathematical theory of compressible fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interaction problems. She is a recipient of the Wichterle Prize (2003) awarded by the Academy of Science of the Czech Republic for young researches. She is the author/co-authors of more than 129 papers and several larger synthetic works (chapters in encyclopaedias) and one book.

Topics of lectures

1. Viscous compressible Navier-Stokes-(Fourier) system coupled to the radiative transfer equation
2. Motion of viscous compressible fluids in time dependent domains
3. Motion of rigid body in viscous fluid

Schedule

• 10th-14th July, 2017 and 17th July, 2017
