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 such as Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel, these approaches involve tradeoffs in computational cost, scalability, implementation complexity, and adaptability to changing boundary conditions and problem configurations. Therefore, we introduce SORh, a simple and efficient relaxation method derived from a hyperbolic reformulation of Poisson’s equation. SORh generalizes classical successive […]

In this workshop, you will: Learn reading and note-taking methods and why they work to help you learn. The Successful Slug Workshop series, hosted by Learning Support Services Peer Coaches, are open to all UCSC undergraduate students and focus on academic skills and tools to support your success as a student. At each workshop, you will be introduced to a topic, engage in active learning, be given resources to begin implementing the same day, and have an opportunity to learn more if you are interested. You Belong Here: The programs and services described here are open to all, consistent with state and federal […]
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 document presents two published studies and two studies in progress that develop, analyze, and apply data-driven methods for turbulent phenomena along that thread. The first study develops FCDS, a framework that autoregressively emulates surface ocean dynamics over the Gulf of Mexico at 8 km resolution and […]

This exhibition brings together a range of analog games – including board, card, role-playing, and other participatory works – that engage social and political realities in different ways. The works span widely circulated commercial games to independently produced projects, one-of-a-kind artworks by artists, faculty, alumni, and students, and materials drawn from UC Santa Cruz Special Collections and Archives. In part, the exhibition challenges the persistent assumption that games and play are detached from social and political life. On the contrary, game designers and artists across diverse perspectives and positions have long used play to engage questions of social systems, lived experience, […]
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 be cultured outside a host, resist standard tools for genetic manipulation, and are annotated largely by homology to distantly related free-living relatives. This dissertation develops genomic, proteomic, and computational methods to work around this lack of infrastructure and contribute techniques and tools to the study and […]
