Dr. Jingmei Qiu

PICS/MEAM Colloquium: Jingmei Qiu

PICS Large Conference Room – 534 3401 Walnut Street, 5A, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Title A  Low Rank Tensor Approach for Nonlinear Vlasov Simulations Abstract In this work, we present a low-rank tensor approach for approximating solutions to the nonlinear Vlasov equation. Our method takes advantage of the tensor-friendly nature of the differential operators in the Vlasov equation to dynamically and adaptively construct a low-rank solution sis bathrough the […]

PICS Colloquium: Jae Sung Park

Zoom

Email jnespos@seas.upenn.edu for the Zoom link. Title Computational fluid dynamics for slurry rheology in flow battery and underlying drag-reduction mechanisms in turbulent flow control Abstract This talk will start by introducing diverse fluid-mechanics research conducted in the Park research group, including complex fluids, electrokinetics, biofluids, transition-to-turbulence, and turbulent flow. I will then focus on two […]

PICS Colloquium: “Deep Anomaly Detection using Coincident Learning”

Zoom

Abstract Anomaly detection is a crucial task in the operation of complex systems such as industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, and large-scale science experiments. Failures in a sub-system can result in low yield, faulty products, or damage to components, making it essential to detect anomalies as quickly as possible. Despite the abundance of data available for […]

PICS Colloquium: “Bridging scales in aerosol modeling with particle-resolved simulations”

PICS Large Conference Room – 534 3401 Walnut Street, 5A, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Speaker: Nicole Riemer, Professor of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Title: Bridging scales in aerosol modeling with particle-resolved simulations Abstract: The aerosol lifecycle consists of processes that act on the micro-scale, yet the aerosols’ climate impacts are perceived on regional or global scales. Capturing this multiscale nature of the atmospheric aerosol […]

PICS Colloquium: “The Virtual Pregnancy: Using Computational Models to Probe Human Reproduction”

PICS Large Conference Room – 534 3401 Walnut Street, 5A, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Abstract Preterm birth affects approximately ten percent of pregnancies and rates of maternal mortality in the US are rising. Computational investigations of pregnancy have great potential to explore fundamental aspects of reproductive physiology that are otherwise difficult or even impossible to investigate in humans. There are few-to-no good animal models of human pregnancy, and the […]

Speaker: Michael Mueller, Professor and Associate Chair of the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Princeton University   Title: Wind, Waves, and Wakes: Large Eddy Simulation of Full-Scale Offshore Wind Farms under Realistic Atmospheric and Oceanic Conditions   Abstract: Ambitious targets on aggressive timelines have been heralded for the development of offshore wind energy […]

PICS Colloquium: “Modeling Assembly of Colloids with Charges and with Mobile Binders”

PICS Large Conference Room – 534 3401 Walnut Street, 5A, Philadelphia, PA, United States

  Speaker: Assistant Professor of Chemistry at New York University   Abstract: In this talk, I will present our recent efforts in probing the physical processes underlying self-assembly of colloidal gels and crystals. Nano-meter to micron sized particles in suspension can be a powerful platform for assembly novel functional materials, but the challenge is to […]
