Dune-Ash awarded as a winning module of the MPE Competition

We are proud to announce that as part of the "Competition of modules for the open source MPE Exhibition" our contribution "Dune-Ash" is awarded. Among 29 contributions "Dune-Ash" (dune-ash) has won the second prize.
The competition is part of the programm "Mathematics of the Planet Earth 2013" (MPE 2013), an intiative by the UNESCO, the IMU (International Mathematical Union) and the EMS (European Mathematical Society).
The awarding ceremony took place on the opening of the "MPE 2013" program in the UNESCO headquater Paris on 5th of march, 2013.
Dune-Ash is a Dune based module, providing an interactive ash spreading simulation for a volcano erruption in Europe, see also the dune-ash homepage.

DUNE School 2012
Front and rear view on the numerical solution to a burgers type equation on the sphere.

October 08th – 12th in Freiburg

This one week course held in Freiburg will give an introduction to the DUNE core modules including the DUNE grid interface library, and the DUNE-FEM module.

The course will focus on the numerical treatment of partial differential equations using continuous and discontinuous Galerkin methods. These schemes will be implemented with the DUNE-FEM module. The final third part of the course will highlight on the discretization of PDEs on stationary and evolving surfaces.
