Shilpa Khatri; Health Sciences Research Institute; University of California, Merced Numerical methods for fluid-structure interactions and multiphase flow within marine phenomena To understand the fluid dynamics of marine phenomena, for example particles settling, droplets rising, pulsating coral, and sniffing crabs, fluid-structure and multiphase flow problems must be solved. Challenges exist...

Olaniyi Iyiola, Department of Mathematics and Physical Sciences, California University of Pennsylvania Efficient Methods for Solving Diffusion-Reaction Systems of Fractional Order Type Nonlocality and spatial heterogeneity of many practical systems have made fractional differential equations very useful tools in Science and Engineering. However, solving these type of models is computationally...

Eduardo Corona, Assistant Professor of Mathematics, New York Institute of Technology Fast computational frameworks for particulate media simulation Granular media and “wet” particle suspensions are two important models of soft matter. They are crucial to the study of soil mechanics, biological media self-assembly and smart material design. In this talk,...

Yunan Yang; Courant Instructor; Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University Optimal Transport for Inverse Problems and the Implicit Regularization Optimal transport has been one interesting topic of mathematical analysis since Monge (1781). The problem's close connections with differential geometry and kinetic descriptions were discovered within the past century,...

The Postdoctoral Association of Colorado, Boulder has organized this series of monthly tutorials/workshops on topics that may be useful to postdocs, students, and faculties across different disciplines. Everyone is invited to attend! If you'd like to offer to give one workshop, and/or have topic ideas, please fill out this form...

Engineers, like everyone, are influenced by media messages every day. Don’t miss this opportunity to interact with TED speaker, renowned media scholar and CU Boulder alumnus, Chris Bell, PhD and consider how media impacts your personal and professional life as an engineer working to address societal issues. Bell specializes in...

Brett Werner Department of Mathematics, University of Colorado Boulder On Machine Learning Machine learning (ML) is the process of making computers learn without specifically programming them to do so. ML has a variety of applications including predicting revenue, detecting credit card fraud, and self-driving cars. We will begin by discussing...

Osita Onyejekwe Department of Mathematics, University of Colorado Boulder Feature Detection in Observed Climate Factors The detection of inflection points is an important task in science and engineering. This task is onerous with subjective results. Signals are often corrupted with noise and signal denoising is often required before feature extraction,...

Title: Flying snakes, attracting manifolds, and the trajectory divergence rate Abstract: Inspired by the gliding behavior of the paradise tree snake, Chrysopelea paradisi, I will discuss a simplified model for passive aerodynamic flight which gives an intuitive and dynamically rich 2 degree-of-freedom system. Within this model, all trajectories collapse quickly...
