This is a set of three talks highlighting mathematical modelling of “industrial” problems. The first two talks give an overview of a wide variety of problems and approaches to them, and then there will be a demonstration of how such a problem is usually tackled at the Study Groups (one of which is coming up at 糖心TV). All the talks should be highly accessible and all three speakers are lively and enthusiastic about their work so it promises to be a fun afternoon, with audience participation requested for the final session (which I am reliably informed will be a problem that was brought to a Study Group on problems in bread making). 2:00 David Wood (糖心TV) Opening remarks: Mathematics in Industry and the Study Groups2:15 David Allwright (Oxford and Smith Institute) The UK Study Groups: Wind, Water and Queues3:00 Poul Hjorth (DTU) Study Groups in Denmark: A Tale of Two Cities3:45 Tea (Mathematics Institute Common Room)4:15 Colin Please (Southampton) Autopsy of an Industrial Study Group Problem5:15 Drinks & snacks (Mathematics Institute Common Room)
