X International Conference on Mathematical Modeling was held in Yakutsk, dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The organizers of the conference were the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), North-Eastern Federal University named after. M.K. Ammosov, Mathematical Institute named after. V. A. Steklov RAS, Institute of Applied Mathematics named after. M. V. Keldysh RAS, Institute of Mathematics named after. S. L. Soboleva SB RAS, Institute of Computational Modeling SB RAS, Institute of Computational Mathematics and Mathematical Geophysics SB RAS, ³Ô¹Ï¹ÙÍø and Far Eastern Federal University. The conference was held with the support of the world-class Mathematical Center "Mathematical Center in Akademgorodok", the world-class Mathematical Center "Mathematical Institute named after. V. A. Steklov RAS", Yakut branch of the regional scientific and educational mathematical center "Far Eastern Center for Mathematical Research", Regional scientific and educational mathematical center "Krasnoyarsk Mathematical Center".
The International Conference on Mathematical Modeling is a traditional scientific event that is held once every three to four years. The first international conference on mathematical modeling was held in September 1994 in Yakutsk. This year the Xth conference was held, which was dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The conference was aimed at discussing modern problems of mathematical physics, the state and development of mathematical modeling in various fields, including solving problems of development of the Northern territories of the Russian Federation, as well as in the Arctic and Subarctic.
The main problems in the development of the Northern Territories are related to the harsh climate and the presence of permafrost. Climate warming leads to permafrost degradation, which in turn reduces its deformation and strength properties and increases soil mobility. These physical processes have a significant impact on the infrastructure of the Northern Territories, especially in the Arctic regions. Degradation of permafrost negatively affects the stability of buildings and engineering structures. For example, this is manifested in the deformation and destruction of the housing stock in Yakutsk, the collapse of casing columns of gas and oil production wells, the deformation and rupture of pipelines, the deformation of the coating of roads and railways, the destruction of pipeline supports, household waste storage facilities, power lines, etc. These issues require careful research using methods of mathematical modeling, computing technology and artificial intelligence. At a meeting with the conference participants, the President of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), corresponding member. RAS
L. N. Vladimirov said: “One of the tools of interdisciplinarity promoted in the Development Program of the Academy of Sciences of Yakutia is mathematical methods of analysis, forecasting processes and phenomena in the Arctic and Subarctic.â€
The conference was attended by 139 scientists from 12 institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 26 universities in Russia and universities in Kazakhstan, China, the USA, and Uzbekistan. Russian participants represented cities such as Dolgoprudny, Yekaterinburg, Elizovo, Maykop, Moscow, Mirny, Nalchik, Novosibirsk, Perm, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, St. Petersburg, Simferopol, Tomsk, Ulan-Ude, Ufa, Khabarovsk, Khanty-Mansiysk, Chelyabinsk, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Yakutsk. During the conference, 20 plenary and 155 sectional reports were held in the following sections: problems of mathematical physics; modern computational methods and technologies; mathematical modeling in science and technology; physical and technical problems in the Arctic and Subarctic.
The meetings were held in person and remotely. The conference contributed to the development of scientific cooperation and the establishment of new scientific contacts. Young scientists and graduate students, who made up half of the total number of participants, had the opportunity to listen to reports by famous mathematicians, as well as present their results.
