Numerical Simulation in Physics and Engineering: Trends and Applications

David Greiner is Associate Professor at the Institute of Intelligent Systems and Numerical Applications in Engineering of University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC), and has served as General Chair of the XVIII Spanish-French School Jacques-Louis Lions on Numerical Simulation in Physics and Engineering. His main research interests are related with optimum design in engineering. He is also editorial board member for the Mathematics-MDPI and Mathematical Problems in Engineering, journals. María Isabel Asensio received her PhD in Mathematics from the University of Salamanca, where she is Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Principal Investigator of the Numerical Simulations and Scientific Computation Research Group. Her main research interests concern mathematical modelling of environmental problems with emphasis on forest fire spread, wind field and atmospheric pollutants dispersion. Rafael Montenegro is Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC). He was Director of the Mathematic Department and the University Institute SIANI. He is editorial board member of relevant journals and is author of more than 200 scientific publications, mainly in the area of 3-D adaptive finite element mesh generation and its applications to environmental problems. He is currently member of the Managing Board of ECCOMAS in representation of SeMA.
