Yuri Bazilev Colloquium: “Isogeometric Methods for Solids, Structures, and Fluid-Structure Interaction: From Early Results to Recent Developments”

Towne 337 PA, United States

Abstract: This presentation is focused on Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) with applications to solids and structures, starting with early developments and results, and transitioning to more recent work. Novel IGA-based thin-shell formulations are discussed, and applications to progressive damage modeling in composite laminates due to low-velocity impact and their residual-strength prediction are shown. Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) employing […]

Chunlei Liang Colloquium “High-order Spectral Difference Method for Studying Marine Hydrodynamics and Thermal Convection and Magneto-hydrodynamics for the Sun”

Towne 337 PA, United States

Abstract Two recent advancements of high-order spectral difference (SD) method for computational fluid dynamics on unstructured meshes will be presented. The first progress is our contribution to a new curved sliding-mesh approach to the SD method for simulating flapping and rotary wing aerodynamics.  The second elevation of the SD method is our recent successful design […]

Karin Leiderman Colloquium: “Mathematical Modeling of Thrombin-Fibrin Binding Dynamics.”

Towne 337 PA, United States

Title: “Mathematical modeling of thrombin-fibrin binding dynamics .” Abstract: Blood clot formation involves the coupled processes of platelet aggregation and coagulation, which are triggered when there is break in a blood vessel. Platelet aggregation is largely a physical process while coagulation is biochemical, consisting of a large network of reactions that culminate in the generation […]

Colloquium: Dimitris Giannakis

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

On Friday, October 22 at 2:00 PICS will host a colloquium featuring Dimitris Giannakis, Jack Byrne Professor in Mathematics at Dartmouth University. Title: Kinetic theory for superparameterization of sea ice dynamics Abstract: Arctic sea ice comprises of many ice floes whose dynamics is driven by oceanic/atmospheric currents and floe-floe interaction. Models of the effective sea ice […]

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 […]
