    AM Seminar: Heat Transport and Scalar Dissipation in Turbulent Flows: A Constructive Approach

    Jack Baskin Engineering Baskin Engineering 1156 High Street, Santa Cruz, CA

    Presenter: Anuj Kumar, Assistant Professor, UC Davis Description: Turbulent flows can transport heat and momentum much more efficiently than pure molecular diffusion alone. What flow structures enable this efficient transport and how can they sustain dissipation when diffusivity or viscosity is small? These questions are fundamental to understanding turbulence and have important applications in engineering. […]

Rather than treating Cubanidad as a stable or unified identity, Cubanidad is discussed as a mobile and contested formation shaped by histories of economic crisis, […]

    Bondar, G. (AM) – Geometric and Graph Structured Optimal Transport for Learning and Control

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

    We motivate, formulate, and solve several structured optimal transportation (OT) problems for learning and control. The field of OT had its inception in 1781, when Gaspard Monge sought the optimal map to transport mass from a given initial distribution to a desired terminal distribution. Both OT and its entropy-regularized variant, the Schrödinger bridge problem (SBP), […]
