Riassunto:

Finite Volume methods are methods directly related to the numerical solution of conservation laws. Systems of such conservation laws govern wide fields of physics and the efficiency of corresponding solution methods is an essential requirement from basic research and industry. Since the efficiency of any method must be measured by the quality of the result compared to the computational cost to spend for, corresponding developments are widely spread, ranging from very fundamental numerical analysis up to the efficient use of modern computer hardware. Although in the past the numerical methodology has made large progresses, many problems and difficulties remain, requiring further intensive research. The present proceedings summarise the contributions to be presented at the second international symposium on Finite Volumes for Complex Applications - Problems and Perspectives. The first symposium of this series was held summer 1996 at INSA de Rouen in France. Based on the success of this first conference, the symposium in Duisburg has again received an unexpected high attention in the numeric community. After a critical review of the submitted contributions, 98 papers by authors from 20 countries are presented in this volume. In a rough estimation, about half of the contributions can be assigned to analysis and numerics of different methods whereas the other half is essentially concerned with application and computational aspects of methods.
