Title: Viscoelastic Effects of Spontaneous Oscillations of Elastic Filaments in the Follower-Force Problem. Abstract: It is well know that microorganisms, such as bacteria and eukaryotes, often move in intricate environments […]
During this student-centered Applied Math Seminar, there will be discussion and presentation about upcoming courses in applied mathematics to help students make their enrollment choices for Fall 2022 and beyond.
Title: Data science and applications in dynamic topic modeling Abstract: The shockwaves of the big data boom have thrown into sharp relief the critical need for domain-driven, large-scale data analytic […]
Title: What is the best shape? Geometric problems arising in aggregation models Abstract: How do pair interactions shape the large-scale behaviour of a cloud of particles (animals, social agents ...) […]
Title: Computational Approaches to Optimization Problems in Inhomogeneous Rods and Plates Abstract: In this talk, we will show the experiments of the vibration of plates to generate Chladni's figures and […]
Title: Understanding scientific fields with network analysis and topic modeling Abstract: As scientific disciplines get larger, it becomes impossible for an individual researcher to be familiar with the entire body of […]
Title: Approximating Quasi-Stationary Distributions with Interacting Reinforced Markov Chains Abstract: An important question in ecology is what conditions must be met for a population of interacting species to coexist. In […]
Title: Kolmogorov, Onsager and a Dyadic Model for Turbulence Abstract: We will briefly review Kolmogorov’s ( 41) theory of homogeneous turbulence and Onsager’s ( 49 ) conjecture that in 3-dimensional turbulent flows energy dissipation might exist even in the limit of vanishing viscosity. Although over the past 70 years there is a vast body of […]
Title: Mathematical modeling of polymerization processes in physiology Abstract: Polymerization, or aggregation, is essential for many physiological systems. For example, the emergence of a fibrin polymer mesh during the formation of a blood clot is required for a stable clot and long-term, sustained intracellular transport in neurons rely on persistent yet dynamic polymers that comprise the […]
Title: Randomized Sums of Graph Spectra Abstract: The adjacency matrix of an Erdős-Rényi-Gilbert graph is a random symmetric matrix whose entries are Bernoulli random variables. These entries, modulo the constraints imposed by symmetry, are independent. We aim to understand the asymptotic behavior of randomized sums of the spectra and singular spectra of these matrices. In […]
Title: Data-driven large eddy simulation of atmospheric turbulence Abstract: Over the last few years, machine learning has been critical in science and engineering and emerged as a data-driven turbulence model. […]
Title: Scattering Resonances Through Subwavelength Holes and Their Applications in Imaging and Sensing Abstract: The so-called extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) through metallic nanoholes has triggered extensive research in modern plasmonics […]
