Highlights of the Year

While the theory and the numerics related to the nonlinear shallow water equations are extensively studied, the understanding of more complex models including dispersive ones is not achieved. Two PhD theses about these issues were defended in 2016 within the team (N. Aïssiouene and D. Kazerani). To go further, a collaboration with spanish collaborators from the university of Sevilla was launched with multiple trips in Spain and France resulting in a preprint [25]. The collaboration is expected to be made more formal in 2017.

Moreover, the team has been reinforced by two young engineers: J. Ledoux in the framework of the ANR project Hyflo-Eflu and F. Souillé. The latter recruitment has been allowed by the Inria ADT grant F2O (“Freshkiss to Others”) and is aimed at easing the transfer of the Freshkiss code in cooperation with SciWorks Technologies.
