On Steady and Unsteady Flows of Implicitly Constituted Incompressible Fluids October 18, 2010 4:00 p.m. Joseph Malek Abstract We consider unsteady flows of incompressible fluids with a general implicit constitutive equation relating the deviatoric part of the Cauchy stress and the symmetric part of the velocity gradient in such a way that it leads to […]

Detecting Small Low Emission Sources on a Large Random Background February 02, 2011 12:00 p.m. Peter Kuchment Abstract The talk will present the results of joint work with M. Allmaras, D. Darrow, Y. Hristova, and G. Kanschat. It can be considered as a continuation of the study presented a year ago under the title “Deterministic […]

Pathway Regulatory Analysis and Modeling of Drug Intervention Effects in the Context of Bayesian Networks April 4, 2011 3:30 p.m. Ivan Ivanov Abstract To effectively intervene when cells are trapped in pathological modes of operation it is necessary to build models that capture sufficient detail of the network structure and how activities are changing to […]

Modern C++ Design for Modern Computer Architectures: Meta Programming for Higher Performance Computing May 2, 2011 3:30 p.m. Joel Falcou Abstract As emerging architectures becomes more powerful, they also become more complex to handle for regular users. In this context, building tools for a large variety of upcoming architectures (GPGPU, many-cores, clusters) is a major […]

Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin Method for Steady Transport March 28, 2011 3:30 p.m. Victor Calo Abstract The objective of this work is to analyze and develop discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin (DPG) methods in context of isogeometric analysis. The DPG framework enables an automatic computation of test function spaces that guarantee numerical stability whereas isogeomtric analysis aims at the integration […]
