In this workshop we will give an introduction to Rust code syntax and semantics. We will show how language features from familiar languages like Python and C++ transfer over, while also introducing concepts not found in many mainstream languages; these include Rust‘s ownership model, traits, and lifetimes. The first half of the workshop will cover […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Please join us for a free online presentation to learn the fundamental workflow of the COMSOL Multiphysics® modeling environment. During the presentation, you will see a live demonstration of how to set up and solve a model including coupled heat transfer and structural mechanics effects, as well as how to process the results in COMSOL […]
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 […]
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 […]
Speaker: Becca Thomases, Professor of Mathematical Sciences at Smith College Abstract: Many microorganisms and cells function in complex (non-Newtonian) fluids, which are mixtures of different materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic stresses. For example, mammalian sperm swim through cervical mucus on their journey through the female reproductive tract, and they must penetrate the viscoelastic […]
Abstract: Upcoming exascale architectures require rethinking of the numerical algorithms used in large-scale PDE-based applications. These architectures favor algorithms, such as high-order finite elements, that expose fine-grain parallelism and maximize the ratio of floating point operations to energy intensive data movement. In this talk we present an overview of MFEM , a scalable library for […]
Grace Hopper Lecture Position: Giulia Galli, Liew Family Professor, University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory Abstract: In this talk, I will describe theoretical and computational strategies based on quantum mechanical calculations, aimed at predicting material properties suitable for the development of quantum technologies. Specifically, I will present results obtained on both classical and near-term […]
