155 Gordon Palmer HallTitle: A Parallel Computational Model for 3D Thermo-Mechanical Stokes Flow Simulations of Ice Sheets Abstract: In this talk we focuses on the development of an efficient, three-dimensional, thermo-mechanically coupled, nonlinear Stokes flow computational model for ice sheet simulation. The model features stable and high-order accurate discretizations on variable resolution grids. In particular, we employ a

Many biological phenomena involve the binding of proteins to a large object.

228 Gordon Palmer Hall Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesEvery Calculus student is familiar with the classical Rolle’s theorem stating that if a real polynomial p satisfies p(−1) = p(1), then it has a critical point in (−1, 1). In 1934, L. Tschakaloff strengthened this result by finding a minimal interval, contained in (−1, 1), that holds a critical point of every real polynomial

The solvation free-energy functional of all phase fields consists of the surface energy, solute excluded volume and solute-solvent van der Waals dispersion energy, and electrostatic free energy.
