Welcome

The Center for Research in Mathematical Engineering (CI²MA) of the Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, Chile, is organizing the Seventh Chilean Workshop on Numerical Analysis of Partial Differential Equations (WONAPDE 2024), to be held on January 15-19, 2024. The official language of this event is ENGLISH.

The aim of the workshop is to present recent developments in Numerical Analysis of Partial Differential Equations, which include, among others, the following topics:

  • A posteriori Error Estimation and Adaptivity
  • Applications in Engineering and Life Sciences
  • Boundary Element Methods
  • Computational Fluid Dynamics
  • Computational Methods in Electromagnetism
  • Computational Methods in Fluid-Structure Interaction
  • Computational Structural Mechanics
  • Discontinuous Galerkin Methods
  • Finite Element Methods
  • Finite Volume Methods for Conservation Laws

Call for Abstracts

Participants interested in giving a presentation are invited to submit a one-page abstract, before September 30th, 2023. Alternatively, authors may contact directly the organizers of minisymposia.
Here you can download the LaTeX file sample or the PDF file sample.

Call for New Minisymposia

Those interested in organizing a new minisimposium are invited to submit a proposal, including title and a tentative list of at least four speakers, before August 30th, 2023. The Scientific Committee will evaluate each proposal and communicate its decision in due course.

Practical Information

Arriving in Chile

International flights arrive at the International Terminal (Terminal 2) of the airport Arturo Merino Benítez (IATA code: SCL) in Santiago: https://www.nuevopudahuel.cl/

Passengers arriving from abroad are requested to pick up their baggage upon arrival at Santiago, pass through the customs and SAG (Agricultural and Livestock Service) inspection and proceed to the National Terminal (Terminal 1) for connecting flights to Concepción. Passengers must check in again their baggage for the connecting flight in the check-in area (located on the third floor of Terminal 1). Under no circumstance can baggage be checked through directly to Concepción from abroad. The airport in Concepción, Carriel Sur (IATA code: CCP), is located 5 kilometers to the Northwest of the city.

From the airport to downtown Concepción

  • Shuttles (shared vans for 6 people). Fare: about 8000 CLP (Chilean pesos) per person.
  • Taxis to downtown. Fare: about 12000 CLP (Chilean pesos).

Fares must be paid to the agents located at the baggage claim area.

Electricity

In Chile the electrical current used is 220 volts, 50 Hertz.

Weather

January is in the middle of summer with sunny days and warm weather.
Average maximum temperature : 25 ºC
Average minimum temperature : 10 ºC

Commerce

Shopping areas in downtown Concepción are open from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm. The most accepted credit cards are Visa and Master Card. Some stores accept also Diners and American Express.

Exchange Rate

Chile's official currency is Peso ($). 1 US$ (dollar) is roughly equivalent to $820 (the exchange rate fluctuates). Foreign currencies can be exchanged at banks or currency exchange bureaus, most of them located in downtown Concepción.
It might be a good idea to get some Chilean pesos (to pay taxi fare) at the Arturo Merino Benítez airport in Santiago since there are not exchange bureaus at the Carriel Sur airport in Concepción.

Banks

There are several banks downtown. On the University campus campus there is a branch of Itaú bank located below the clock tower. Here you can find an ATM.
