WCNA 2004- Fourth World Congress of Nonlinear Analysts

The fourth World Congress (WCNA--2004) of Nonlinear Analysts was held at the Hyatt
Grand Cypress Resort (Near Walt Disney World Resort) under the auspices of the
International Federation of Nonlinear Analysts (IFNA). The vision of IFNA and WCNA is

  • To promote, encourage, and influence more cooperation, understanding, and collaboration in the world community of nonlinear analysts from various diverse disciplines;
  • To bring together various disciplines that attempt to understand nonlinear phenomena and
    solve nonlinear problems; and
  • To help minimize the ever widening gap between the developed and developing
    countries by providing scientific and technical research assistance in various forms.

It is with this spirit, the International Federation of Nonlinear Analysts was established in 1992, as a transdisciplinary world society. IFNA sponsors the World Congress of Nonlinear
Analysts periodically once in four years. magnificent, self-contained 1,500-acre resort in the Lake Buena Vista area, adjacent to EPCOT® and Walt Disney World® Resort, offering a private lake, golf and miles of tropical nature trails for bicycling, horseback riding and

business district. During this period, the climate in Florida is warmly pleasant.

Scientific Program

There will be several invited lectures, organized sessions, mini-symposia and workshops
covering recent trends in nonlinear problems (by academic, industrial, and government
experts) arising in such diverse disciplines as:

  • Aerospace Sciences
  • Atmospheric Sciences
  • Biological Sciences
  • Chemical Sciences
  • Cosmological Sciences
  • Economics
  • Engineering & Technological Sciences
  • Environmental Sciences
  • Geophysical Sciences
  • Medical & Health Sciences
  • Numerical & Computational Sciences
  • Oceanographic Sciences
  • Physical Sciences
  • Social Sciences
  • Mathematical Sciences.

There will be opportunity to present short communications (30 minutes), organize informal
seminars, and propose special sessions. More details concerning travel facilities, social
events, preregistration, accommodations, submission of abstracts, scientific program and
invited lectures will be provided in the second announcement which will be posted shortly.

Venue

After much deliberation over the state of affairs in the global community at large, the committee
responsible for deciding a site has chosen The Hyatt Grand Cypress Resort as the official host
of the Congress. Much care has been taken to provide a location with many things to offer not
only for the participants but also their families at affordable prices in a prime location. The Hyatt
