Location & Dates

Dates: 3 September 2006 - 6 September2006
Location: Congress Center Bernardin, Portoroz, Slovenia
Subject area: Statistical Physics, Complex Dynamical Systems ;
Topic: Physics and Chemistry of Complex Patterns

Scope

The purpose of the workshop is to bring together the working groups of the EU-funded Marie Curie network "Unifying Principles of Non-Equilibrium Pattern Formation" (PATTERNS) to provide a focussed forum for discussions. Bridging theory and experiment, the invited and contributed talks will span theoretical principles underlying self-assembly and self-organization, fluid dynamics, and graph theory, on the one side, and practical assembly processes in the physics and chemistry of nanostructured materials, thin films, and polymers, on the other.

Topics

  • Self-Assembly Processes in Physics, Chemistry & Biology
  • Self-Organized States far from Equilibrium
  • Fluid Dynamics Instabilities & Patterning
  • Nano-Materials & Nano-Bio-Heterostructures
  • Cellular, Molecular & Other Networks
  • Nanoscale Modelling & Simulations

           

     

     

Participation

The workshop is open to all to attend, but the number is limited to 50 participants, and hose wishing to attend should apply early.
