Singularities in mechanics :
formation, propagation, and microscopic description.



The workshops

The workshops will address the three main themes of the program, and are addressed to both experimental and theoretical physicists, and to mathematicians.
Each will be held over one week, from Monday noon to Friday noon. Wednesday afternoon will usually be devoted to informal discussions and poster sessions.
Each workshop will be made up of three types of contributions : long lectures (3 hours), talks of 45 min, and sessions of short talks reserved for PhD students and young researchers.



Formation and structure of singularities
Interactions and propagation of singularities
Microscopic description of singularities
