Conference, Fraunhofer ITWM / October 06, 2025 - October 08, 2025
Kaiserslautern Applied and Industrial Mathematics Days – KLAIM 2025
Main Topic of the 2025 Event: Coupled Problems
Main Topic of the 2025 Event: Coupled Problems
The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum for applied mathematicians from universities, research laboratories and industry to exchange ideas and present the latest results.
KLAIM 2025 will focus on the topic »Coupled Problems«. This focus topic reflects the increasing complexity of today's simulation and optimization methods, where different problem levels, different scales or different physical domains and effects are connected in different ways.
The conference is jointly hosted and organized by the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics ITWM and the Department of Mathematics at the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau (RPTU).
1. Coupling Across Scales – Multiscale Methods in the Materials Sciences
Organized in collaboration with the French-German Graduate School Mathematical Image Processing and Synthetic Microstructures for Machine Learning
2. Coupling Across Domains – Multiphysics Simulation
3. Co-simulation and Control in Coupled Engineering Applications
Organized in collaboration with the ECMI Special Interest Group Math for the Digital Factory
4. Coupled Discrete and Bilevel Optimization Problems
5. Solver Coupling and High Performance Computing
Additionally, we plan a special session on Success stories from collaboration projects with industry organized by the European Network EU-MATHS-IN.
In collaboration with the open access journal Computational Science and Engineering (editor-in-chief Peter Benner), we intend to publish a special issue containing a selection of peer-reviewed papers on KLAIM 2025.
