[NotiAMCA] Uncertainties 2012

[Victorio Sonzogni]

Caros colegas.

No proximo ano nos faremos um congresso sobre Modelagem Estocastica e 
Quantificação de Incertezas.  Os detalhes estão na pagina: 

 http://www.set.eesc.usp.br/uncertainties2012/index.php


 Gostariamos muito de ter um grande numero de colegas argentinos participando 
e, portanto,  peço-lhes ajuda para divulgar o congresso.  Possivelmente 
divulgando-o atraves da AMCA.

Abraços,

Rubens

Uncertainties 2012

1st International Symposium on Uncertainty Quantification and Stochastic 
Modeling
Maresias Beach Hotel, São Sebastião, São Paulo, Brazil.

http://www.set.eesc.usp.br/uncertainties2012/index.php



Uncertainties 2012 will take place at the Maresias Beach Hotel, on the beach 
of Maresias, São Sebastião, São Paulo, and will be held from February 26 to 
March 2, 2012. This first meeting is organized on behalf of the ABCM Committee 
on Stochastic Modeling and Uncertainty Quantification, based on the experience 
acquired in organizing similar-themed mini-symposia in past conferences as 
well as previous meetings held at the Catholical University of Rio de Janeiro 
(Brief history of the event).


Uncertainties 2012 aims at providing an appropriate atmosphere for the 
exchange of experiences, with sufficient free time for scientific connections, 
interactions with past and future collaborators, and so on. Hence, there will 
be no parallel sessions. Presentations will be comprised of oral sessions and 
poster sessions.
The meeting also contemplates two short courses, taught by renowned 
specialists, aimed at graduate and post-graduate students and with the purpose 
of increasing the overall understanding of the main aspects of uncertainty 
quantification and stochastic mechanics. 


 Topics: 

Topics of interest for the symposium include, but are not limited to:

    * Bayesian methods
    * Computational stochastic mechanics
    * Fuzzy methods
    * Industrial application of uncertainty quantification
    * Interval methods
    * Multi-objective optimization in presence of uncertainties
    * Probabilistic methods
    * Risk analysis
    * Robust analysis
    * Robust, performance-based and reliability-based structural optimization 
under uncertainty
    * Stochastic control
    * Stochastic dynamics and random vibrations
    * Structural reliability
    * Uncertainty identification
    * Uncertainty quantification and reduction
    * Uncertainty propagation
