DESCRIPTION:Prof. Sara Zahedi Department of Mathematics KTH (Royal Institu
 te of Technology) Stockholm\, Sweden  \nIn this talk I will present a new
  type of finite element methods that we refer to as Cut Finite Element Met
 hods (CutFEM). CutFEM provides an efficient strategy for solving partial d
 ifferential equations in evolving geometries. In CutFEM the dynamic geomet
 ry is allowed to cut through the background grid in an arbitrary fashion a
 nd remeshing processes are avoided. We will consider convection-diffusion 
 equations on evolving surfaces (or interfaces) modeling the evolution of i
 nsoluble surfactants and a space-time cut finite element method based on q
 uadrature in time. A stabilization term is added to the weak formulation w
 hich guarantees that the linear systems resulting from the method have bou
 nded condition numbers independently of how the geometry cuts through the 
 background mesh for linear as well as higher order elements.\n
