The  Industrial Days  are an effort of MIRIAM for establishing
an ongoing "communication channel" between Academia (methods)
and Industry (applications).
The intention is  to reinforce awareness in  both Academia and
Industry about the increasing role of Mathematical  Methods and
Tools for the design of complex products in various areas of
industrial interest  at  large (Mechanics, Electronics, Finance,
Medicine, etc.).
Mastering complexity demands that actors with different background
share various tools, requiring in turn an increased level
of communication between culturally different people.
The Industry Days  offer to  all interested researchers the
opportunity to be exposed to the presentation of real industrial
and social problems and the relevant innovative mathematical methods
useful in their modelling; the need of further contributions from
Mathematics to improve or provide better solutions will  also
be considered.



Workshop on CRYSTALS
--------------------

Crystal growth processes provide basic materials for many applications and
represent a key technology in the chain of all manufacturing processes for
(opto-)electronic devices. The research and development of crystal growth
processes is driven by the demand  coming from specific applications;
however common requests include controlling the mean shape of crystals,
improving uniformity of specific crystal properties at the micro- and
macroscale and producing materials with new properties.

This meeting will be an occasion to discuss about the existing
correlations between basic and applied research and their mutual feedback
in several aspects of crystal growth in advanced materials science and
technology. In the spirit of the Industry Days, a special effort will
be put in fostering communication between experts from different
backgrounds: Academia and Industry.

The Industry Day "Crystals (Formation, Growth and Simulations)" will
gatheScientists and Experts in different fields, e.g. system engineering,
computer simulation, physics, material sciences, mathematics. Physicists,
Engineers and Experimentalists will discuss situations in which the
mathematical study of crystal growth may help the development  of
equipment and processes for the production of crystals and thin films
that meet the current high standards on crystal quality and cost
reduction.
Mathematicians will present details of the main mathematical techniques
which are used to address such problems, with reference to specific
applications or case studies.

A partial list of topics includes: optoelectronic crystals, multiscale
simulations, finite element methods for crystalline evolution, crystal
growth and sorption processes,  growth kinetics, epitaxial growth.

Following the tradition of the Industry Days there will only be
invited talks. Anyhow plenty of time will be devoted to open
discussion during the Workshop. Posters about the invited talks
will also be available during coffee breaks and lunch to stimulate
further discussion.

Some space for contributed posters will be available. If you want
to present a poster, please check the instructions on the website
