The third edition of the

Kaiserslautern Applied an Industrial Mathematics Days – KLAIM

will take place in Kaiserslautern, Germany, from October 6th-8th, 2025.

The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for applied mathematicians from academia, research labs and industry to exchange ideas and to showcase recent results. This year’s edition of KLAIM will put emphasis on Coupled Problems. This focus topic reflects the ever increasing complexity in today’s simulation and optimization methods where different problem stages, different scales, or different physical domains and effects are connected in various ways.

The workshop is hosted jointly by the Fraunhofer-Institute for Industrial Mathematics and the Department of Mathematics at the RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau.

The program is structured along the tracks:

  1. Coupling across scales – multiscale methods in the materials sciences (Organized in collaboration with the French-German Graduate School Mathematical image processing and synthetic microstructures for machine learning)
  2. Coupling across domains – multiphysics simulation
  3. Co-simulation and control in coupled engineering applications (Organized in collaboration with the ECMI Special Interest Group Math for the Digital Factory)
  4. Coupled discrete and bilevel optimization problems
  5. Solver coupling and high performance computing

Additionally, a special session on Success stories from collaboration projects with industry will be organized by the European Network EU-MATHS-IN.

In collaboration with the open access journal Computational Science and Engineering (Editor-in-Chief Peter Benner), we plan a special issue that will comprise a selection of peer-reviewed contributions to KLAIM 2025.
