Wuppertal is partner of a newly established Horizon2020 European Joint Doctorate Network entitled EJD STIMULATE, coordinated by the Cyprus Institute, that will run for the next 4 years offering triple joint degrees for the PhD Fellows, see Home page EJD STIMULATE. STIMULATE stands for: SimulaTIon in MUltiscaLe physicAl and biological […]
Read moreMovie: Shape flow for a 2D rod towards optimal reliability. As three working groups (Optimization, High Performance Computing and Stochastics) at the IMACM in Wuppertal, we develop probabilistic shape optimization models for different failure mechanisms, notably for low cycle fatigue (LCF) problems, with gradient based methods. Low cycle fatigue […]
Read moreDuring this winter term, 23 undergrad students of mathematics and economath make a special experience. In teams with up to fife students, they are invited to regional industry facilities where they are confronted with a data analytics task derived from a concrete industrial need. The industrial partners stem from markets […]

In Dec 2016 the European Initial Training Network project “STRIKE – Novel Methods in Computational Finance” did end. The Bergische Universität Wuppertal, Germany, coordinated this project that involved a network of eleven universities for training twelve PhD-students (4 females, 8 males) and five PostDocs (2 females, 3 males). The project […]
Read moreIn many applications, coupled problems appear very naturally. For example, Fig.1 depicts a field/circuit problem, where a transformer can be modeled by a partial differential equation (PDE) and an electric circuit subsystem, which can be modeled by differential algebraic equations (DAEs). The coupled system is a PDAE [5]. A semi-discretization […]
Read moreIn financial engineering the pricing of options and derivatives is a major field of interest. The behavior of assets is in general described via stochastic differential equations (SDEs). With the help of the Ito formula options prices can be shown to be solutions of parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs). Especially if option prices are […]
