Partial Differential Equations

Research topics
  • Control & inverse problems
  • Fluids & fluid-structure interactions
  • Numerical simulation and scientific computing
  • Qualitative analysis of PDEs & spectral theory
  • Reaction-diffusion equations & mathematics related to biology
  • Shape optimization & calculus of variations

Some members of the team are also members of the Inria team SPHINX.

Activities of the team

Recurrent activities

  • The team meets regularly through 2 weekly seminars (1 in Nancy et 1 in Metz) and a working group.
  • The team organizes every year the “Journées EDP de l’IECL” (end of march), alternatively in Metz and Nancy.
