Title: 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

Shape Optimization Problems Involving Eigenvalues and Their Applications Since Lord Rayleigh conjectured that the disk should minimize the first Laplace-Dirichlet eigenvalue among all shapes of equal area more than a century ago, eigenvalue optimization problems have been active research topics with applications in various areas including mechanical vibration, electromagnetic cavities, photonic crystals, and population dynamics.

Building Large Economic and Financial Networks “The study of high dimensional networks has increased dramatically. Group wise information from large datasets can be used to build networks where nodes represent variables and edges represent the conditional dependency between two variables. Economic policy makers can use these networks to measure impulse responses and determine how an
