A forum for researchers working at the intersection of applied mathematics, engineering, and physics.


The scientific challenges we face today can only be effectively addressed through interdisciplinary collaborations. The purpose of the symposium is to connect researchers from different scientific fields related to computational science and engineering. Numerical algorithms such as the boundary element method are very powerful as predictive tools for wave propagation and many other physical and engineering problems. The full potential of computational techniques can only be achieved in a collaborative environment of mathematicians, software developers and application scientists.

Message after symposium

The symposium was well attended by students and academics from Chile and abroad. The participants have been able to enjoy high-quality presentations of the international keynote speakers, invited professors and young researchers. The interdisciplinary character of the symposium was very well appreciated and brought together researchers from applied mathematics, physics and engineering.

The organizers would like to thank all presenters and attendants for their valuable participication to the symposium and we are looking forward to a Second Chilean Symposium on Boundary Element Methods.
