The workshop at ICMS will allow researchers who are working in the mathematical and experimental fields of splashing, to become more aware of theoretical developments in this field. This will be the first-ever workshop focused on fundamental mathematical aspects of splashing across many time and length scales.
During the Workshop it is planned to review modern experimental results on splashing; to identify the mechanisms underlying splashing; to outline and formulate mathematical problems which could help us to understand splashing better and to provide reliable predictions; to review recent developments in mathematical modelling and computations of splashing; and to establish contacts between international leaders and young researchers, which will lead to joint cross-border projects on mathematical theory of splashing. By means of targeted presentations, extensive discussions and establishing links between researchers and partners from different disciplines, we expect a significant advance in the real-world problem of controlling splashing as a particular outcome of the Workshop.
The Workshop is aiming to better prepare the mathematical community to respond to the increasing number of real world processes that demand a better quantitative understanding of splashing; to tell the wider scientific community about the new insights that mathematical theories of splashing can give at scales ranging across the spectrum from those relevant to naval architecture to nanotechnology.
Arrangements
Participation
Participation for this workshop is by invitation only.
UK Visas
If you are travelling from overseas you may require an entry visa. A European visa does not guarantee entry to the UK. Please use this link to the UK Visas site to find out if you need a visa and if so how to apply for one.
Venue
The workshop will be held at 15 South College Street, Edinburgh. You may also find this map useful for the workshop. All lectures will be held in the Newhaven Lecture Theatre. To view this room and a list of the visual equipment available click here. In addition, two blackboards have recently been installed. The projector and one board may be used simultaneously.
Wireless Access
The workshop venue, 15 South College Street, has wireless access throughout. On arrival at Registration you will be given instructions and a code for accessing the wireless network. For those without laptops, there will also be a couple of computers available for you to check your emails.
Travel
Information about travel to the UK and Edinburgh is available here.
Please note that it is your responsibility to have adequate travel insurance to cover medical and other emergencies (volcanic ash disruptions) that may occur on your trip.
A taxi directly from the airport will cost approximately 15.00 to 20.00 GBP to the city centre for a one-way journey. There is also a bus service direct from the airport to the city centre which will cost 3.50 single or 6.00 GBP return - the Airlink 100. This is a frequent service (every 10 minutes during peak times) and will bring you close to Waverley Railway Station, only a short walk to the accommodation and the workshop venue (see map in 'Venue' section above).
Lothian buses charge £1.50 for a single, £3.50 for a day ticket. Please note that the exact fare is required and no change is given.
If travelling by train, please note that Edinburgh has two railway stations - Waverley Railway Station being the main station and closest to the workshop venue at 15 South College Street. If you alight at Edinburgh Waverley, the workshop venue is an easy 10 minute walk over North and South Bridge. The second railway station is called Haymarket and is at the West End of the city centre.
Catering
Refreshments will be provided during the coffee breaks for the duration of the event. A light lunch will be available in the Chapterhouse of 15 South College Street on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. There will be a workshop dinner. The workshop venue and the accommodation are located centrally near many restaurants, bars, pubs and cafes. In your delegates pack (handed out at Registration on 11 March) there will be suggestions of places to eat, and ICMS staff are always happy to recommend further places too.
Financial Matters and Registration Fee
The workshop grant covers some of your costs in Edinburgh. For details, please see your individual invitation, or contact Helene Frossling.
A registration fee of 50.00 GBP is payable.
A registration fee of 50.00 GBP is payable. If possible, we'd prefer that this fee is paid in advance of the meeting by completing the details on the& credit/debit card payment form As email is not secure, please print the form and return it by fax using the fax number at the top of the form. ICMS will take your payment and a receipt will be emailed to you, or given to you at registration. Alternatively, we can accept sterling cheques, made payable to Heriot-Watt University but sent to Helene Frossling, ICMS, 15 South College Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9AA. If you have any difficulty in paying in advance, it is possible for you to simply pay on arrival at Registration.
If we have agreed to pay some of your travel costs the amount will be confirmed in your Final Information email which you will receive a week prior to the workshop. Reimbursement will take place after the event and will involve payment directly into your bank account. At Registration you will be given an expenses claim form and this should be submitted to ICMS, with original receipts. It would be helpful if you could bring your bank details to the workshop. In addition to the bank account number, participants from the USA and Canada will require their bank’s routing number, those from the UK will be asked for the bank sort code, and those from the rest of the world, an IBAN and SWIFT/BIC code. We cannot reimburse any item without a signed claim form and original receipts.
