These two volumes are the proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Hyperbolic Problems: Theory, Numerics and Applications (HYP 2010). The objective of the conference is to bring together experts, researchers and students with interest in theoretical analysis, numerical simulations, and applications of hyperbolic partial differential equations and related mathematical models appearing in applied sciences. The conference keeps the traditional balance of the HYP series, blending theory, numerics and applications, and an emphasis is put on nonlinear problems and applications in various fields such as fluid mechanics, elasticity, astrophysics, biomathematics, traffic flow, etc. As has been done in the past, a special effort has been made it possible for young scientists to attend this conference and to promote their interaction with the more senior researchers.
These two volumes contain 80 original research and review papers which are written by leading researchers and promising young scientists, and cover a diverse range of multi-disciplinary topics addressing theoretical, modeling and computational issues arising under the umbrella of “Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations”.
