  • Gutie, J. (SciCAM) – SORh: Hyperbolic Relaxation Methods For Elliptic Problems In Computational Fluid Dynamics

    Virtual Event

    This thesis explores iterative methods for solving elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs), which are used in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model a wide range of physical phenomena. The primary application of interest here is self-gravity, modeled by Poisson’s equation. Although many numerical approaches exist, including direct matrix inversion, FFT-based methods, and classical iterative methods […]

  • Lupin-Jimenez, L. (AM) – Data-Driven Deep Learning for Turbulent Phenomena: Regional Ocean Prediction and Assimilation, Spectral Bias in Diffusion Models, and Equation Discovery

    Engineering 2 Engineering 2 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA
    Hybrid Event

    Deep learning models trained on simulation and reanalysis data can now emulate turbulent geophysical flows at a small fraction of the computational cost of numerical solvers. Their scientific utility depends on physical consistency, which for the systems studied here rests in large part on spectral fidelity, the accurate reconstruction of variance across spatial scales. This […]

  • Penunuri, G. (BMEB) – Genomic, Proteomic, and Computational Approaches to the Study of Host-Microbe Systems

    Biomedical Sciences Building 575 McLaughlin Drive
    Hybrid Event

    Host-microbe systems are core to some of biology’s most consequential interactions, from the pathogens that drive infectious disease to symbionts affecting agricultural pest control and vector-borne disease transmission. Yet unlike the model organisms that have driven most of modern molecular biology, the microbes at the center of these interactions are rarely genetically tractable: many cannot […]
