International Workshop Held for Leszek Demkowicz’s 70th Birthday

Austin, USA
April 11th, 2023 

Guests from around the globe gathered for a celebratory workshop on April 11 in honor of Leszek Demkowicz’s 70th Birthday, hosted by the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin. Speakers shared research and words of appreciation for Demkowicz’s contributions in the fields of computational mathematics and mechanics and beyond.
Here is the summary from the ODEN Institute

In addition, CAMWA plans to publish a special issue on the occasion of the Workshop in Honor of Leszek Demkowicz's 70th Birthday, as Leszek has been the Editor in Chief of CAMWA from 2012 to 2018. He completely redesigned the journal with great effort and success. The special issue in his honor is a recognition of his great contribution to our community and a nice memory of his commitment to our journal. I have the great honor to be the managing guest editor of this special issue, where all the managing editors (excluding Leszek) and the former managing editor Norbert Heuer are the guest editors.

(Co-organisation with Matthias Schlottbom and Gerhard Starke)
The aim of this small-scale, week-long interactive mini-workshop jointly organized by the University of Duisburg-Essen and the University of Twente, and kindly hosted at the MFO, is to bring together experts in non-standard and mixed finite elements methods with experts in the field of electromagnetism.

Oberwolfach Workshop, January 2021: Nonstandard FEM

Abstract: Finite element methodologies dominate the computational approaches for the solution to partial differential equations and nonstandard finite element schemes most urgently require mathematical insight in their design. The hybrid workshop vividly enlightened and discussed innovative nonconforming and polyhedral methods, discrete complex-based finite element methods for tensor-problems, fast solvers and adaptivity, as well as applications to challenging ill-posed and nonlinear problems.

Oberwolfach Workshop, september 2019: Innovative Approaches to the Numerical Approximation of PDEs 

This workshop was about the numerical solution of PDEs for which classical approaches, such as the finite element method, are not well suited or need further (theoretical) underpinnings.

The decision of the German Research Foundation to support the MATH+ Cluster of Excellence gave reason to the Grand Opening. On 14 May 2019, 800 invited guests met in the Berlin Kosmos and spent entertaining moments together and celebrating the great success that is an outstanding achievement for the city of Berlin and for science in Berlin. Among the guests were many renowned scientists and numerous politicians such as State Secretary Steffen Krach.

I presented the new a posteriori error estimates for the three-field variational formulation of the Biot problem involving the displacements, the total pressure and the fluid pressure of this paper with my Co-author Gerhard Starke.
The discretization under focus is the conforming Taylor–Hood finite element combination, consisting of polynomial degrees for the displacements and the fluid pressure and for the total pressure. The symmetry of the reconstructed stress is allowed to be satisfied only weakly. The reconstructions can be performed locally on a set of vertex patches and lead to a guaranteed upper bound for the error with a constant that depends only on local constants associated with the patches and thus on the shape regularity of the triangulation. Particular emphasis is given to nearly incompressible materials and the error estimates hold uniformly in the incompressible limit. Numerical results on the L-shaped domain confirm the theory and the suitable use of the error estimator in adaptive strategies.

October 2018: Celebrating 75th years of Mathematics of Computation

With my Co-author Prof. Daniele Boffi we presented our work on a posteriori error estimates for the mixed numerical approximation of the Laplace eigenvalue problem using a reconstruction in the standard conforming space for the primal variable of the mixed Laplace eigenvalue problem. This work compare it with analogous approaches present in the literature for the corresponding source problem. In the case of Raviart–Thomas finite elements of arbitrary polynomial degree, the resulting error estimator constitutes a guaranteed upper bound for the error and is shown to be local efficient. Our reconstruction is performed locally on a set of vertex patches.
