Relaxation-oscillations in a conceptual climate model

Conceptual climate models are relatively simple mathematical constructs that can capture essential features of the nonlinear nature of the climate. They usually focus only on several ingredients of the physical description and model their interplay. As can be easily noticed, due to their simplicity, they cannot be used as computation […]

Slower than usual transport in porous media

In the last decade a number of researchers have found that in some materials (such as zeolite or building bricks) the moisture diffusion follows a slower than usual pace and thus its transport becomes subdiffusive. There is a wealth of literature on the experimental side of the subdiffusion, but its […]

WUST – from Hugo Steinhaus seminar on applications of mathematics to the ECMI Node

The Wrocław University of Science and Technology  (WUST) was founded  in 1945 on the basis  of the German Königliche Technische Hochschule Breslau and  scientific traditions of the Lvov Polytechnic. Since the very beginning of its existence it has been an important centre of technical education. Today it belongs to the […]
