Asia-Pacific Early-Mid Career Researchers at the University of Cambridge Isaac Newton Institute programme on Mathematical theory and applications of multiple wave scattering
Abstract
Multiple wave scattering (MWS) is vibrant and expanding research area of interest to mathematicians, physicists, engineers and others concerned with the properties of waves in complex materials. It has applications in acoustics, elastodynamics, optics, hydrodynamics and more. The range of applications has caused research in the MWS field to be fragmented. A six-month MWS Programme at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences will bring together researchers across disciplines covering analytical methods, computational techniques and scientific/engineering applications to facilitate cross-fertilisation of ideas and promote innovation. The outcomes will advance techniques used in, for instance, medical imaging, vibration isolation, quantum electronic structures, atmospheric imaging, water/structure interactions, and other topics of interest to the Office of Naval Research.We will run four research workshops as part of the MWS Programme, in which the latest research advances will be presented in (i) canonical mathematical problems, (ii) scattering in complex and random media, (iii) computational methods, and (iv) applications in science and engineering. We have already secured the top international researchers in the field to deliver presentations at the workshops. We aim to integrate early#mid career researchers (EMCRs) from the Asia#Pacific region (AsiaPac) in the workshops and have them give present talks and posters.Therefore, ONRG funding will drive visibility of AsiaPac EMCRs to influential audiences and generate opportunities for interactionswith top international research leaders and each other. Further, we hope to use the workshops to embed the AsiaPac EMCRs is the MWSProgramme and encourage them to participate in the Programme for extended periods, during which time they can form new multi-disciplinary connects and work in teams on outstanding problems in the field.
