Applied Math Seminar – Vishesh Vikas (University of Alabama)

228 Gordon Palmer Hall Tuscaloosa, AL, United States

Title: Applied Mathematics for Soft Robotics Abstract: Soft materials are a bulk or composite collection of matter that undergoes deformations of similar or greater magnitude than the deformation of the environment, either plastically or elastically, within the force regime applied by its environment. For roboticists, soft materials can withstand impacts, are elastic and highly deformable,

Inaugural STEM Forward Conference

Bryant Conference Center 240 Paul W Bryant Drive, Tuscaloosa, AL, United States

STEM Flyer April 14 2018

Colloquium – Maria Laura delle Monache (Inria Grenoble – Rhône Alpes)

346 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United States

Topic:  Control of traffic flow: from ramp metering to autonomous vehicles Abstract: In this talk, we will consider different control frameworks for traffic flow. In particular, we will show the evolution of traffic control from classical strategies (for example ramp-metering) to more modern approaches using autonomous vehicles. We will introduce different ways to describe mathematically

Analysis Seminar – Bingyuan Liu (University of California, Riverside) Geometry of the @-Neumann problem and the D{F index

227 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United States

Abstract. We shall rst introduce the classical works of Hormander and Kohn on the L2 estimates of the @(-Neumann) problem on bounded domains and then describe applications in complex geometry. It turns out that the boundary geometry plays the fundamental role in the Sobolev estimates of the @ solution. The Diederich{Fornss index is the geometric invariant which predicts the estimates.
